You've only had your baby a month ago. Give it some time, let your body recover fully.
If you feel bad about not having the body you had before pregnancy, don't. No one's body stays the same after giving birth. Even very health-conscious and fit women can be left with extra skin, stretch marks, changes in hair, skin, breast shape etc.
After recovery you can work towards having a fitter body to get closer to your aesthetic goals, but you have to be reasonable with your approach to it. If you're finding it too difficult, perhaps you should look to get some kind of acceptance therapy.
Also watch out for diastasis recti. If it's severe you can get it fixed with surgery.

What Girls Said
It'll take some time but eventually you will learn to love your new body. You can always work out and lose the pooch later on. It's only been a month so still super early to be working out. Take the time to cuddle and love on your baby and don't worry about how you look
Go easy on yourself. It's your second kid. You will take a but longer to bounce back amd you will have to work harder. Stretch marks are inescapable. It's a bit late for a belly band now so you will just have to work on your abs and do diastasis rectii workouts. Be patient and enjoy your baby!
