Itchy scar?

This is probably pregnancy related rather than c/s related but has anyone experienced a really itchy scar?

I could literally itch mine for hours if I was allowed to.  I am miserable!

    Ugh yes. Sometimes mine would itch so bad I would try to be sneaky and scratch but I looked like I was scratching my crotch. Sorry that sucks.

    Just had my c/s two months ago, but for some reason out of nowhere, my scar is soooo itchy today.  It's driving me crazy!!

    Mine still occasionally gets itchy.  For me the worst part was when the area was still numb to the touch yet it would itch like CRAZY!  I think it was the nerves coming back to life, because after a couple months of itchiness the numbness went away.

    YES. I ended up had these horrible hives around my incision area, arms, and legs. It was postpartum PUPPS, and lasted for a few weeks. Hopefully your itchy scar is just normal run-of-the-mill healing.
