Pregnancy after c section. Pain?

i had a c section with DD, four years ago. We're on pregnancy number 2.

I know round ligament pain is normal, but it is SO much worse with this baby, and was wondering if it could have something to do with my c section or scar tissue.

I've been sick, so part of me thinks it's just the coughing/sneezing but sometimes I seriously feel like the bottom of my stomach is splitting open.

Just wondering if it's all in my head I guess. Misery does love company.

    I had my last c section 3 years ago. And getting ready to have my 2nd in a few weeks and I complained about this to my doctor a lot in the beginning. She told me scar tissue stretching is really uncomfortable and that's what I was feeling. It has gotten better, but that also could be because I'm just used to it.

    I had my c section almost 3 years ago and I'm 16 weeks and my goodness it hurts! Doctor said from the scar tissue! C sections forever hurt I guess

    I'm only in my 1st tri but I've twinged mine a couple times already. I have to be careful how I stretch. I figured it makes sense for a scar in that location but still not fun. Maybe massaging it lightly will help? Or a compress? Hope you feel better asap!
