im 32 weeks pregnant and my scar form the birth of my son 19 months ago is irratating i just thought it was with streching but tonight its bright red and stings like its about to split, has any one else had problems? what can i do about it?



LMO - 100 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) a girl i work with use to complain about that, it wont come open the scar tissue is just stretching and so it is getting irritated

araya-sunshine - 100 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) Scar tissue is not as strong as regular skin. As your stomach stretches the first place your likely to get a scretch mark is along a scar. Don't worry your old incision is not going to pop back open but it may be worth your while to invest in Maderma (spelling?) for scars.

michaela - 100 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I haven't had a c-section but had the same discomfort with my appendix scar , i applied a good quality moisturiser twice a day, it is just because the scar tissue behind the scar is stretched and it's not a pliable as normal skin. If things haven't improved before your next dr appointment mention it to him/her. I hope this helps.

Mommyof2boys - 100 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I had a c-section with my first and I'm 33 weeks pregnant now and I haven't had any problems with mine but its also been 4 1/2 years since my last. I've heard of people having the burning and streching before if it was like a year or 2 after they had one.

mommy-of-3 - 100 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) My best friend had all 3 of her kids by c-section and I never heard her complain of anything like that. I would call your doctor and have someone take a look at it.

brandi j. - 100 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I haven't ever heard of this happening. I have a friend who has had 3 c-sections and expecting her 4th baby and a sister in law who is expecting her 2nd baby w/ her oldest being 14 mos. old, and I haven't heard either of the 2 say anything about this happening to them. I suggest you call your doctor and see what he/she says. This sounds painful and I hope you feel better soon!
