C-section recovery question

desmaandjon

The incision site is tender, of course. But it feels like inside is very tender, especially near the ends of the incision. It's only been 9 days so I'm assuming this is normal but just want to check. TIA.

 I still  have tenderness internally towards the left end of my incision (1 1/2 years later).

I still have some tenderness too - nearly 3 months later.  After just 9 days I was really, really sore.

i don't remember anything like that, but i was on vicodin every 4 hours for the first 2 weeks.

Yep, mine was the right side.  My doc said that was the side she stands on and it gets stretched further and harder (ouch!).  The best part is that it hurts A LOT during this pg.  It is totally normal, though.

desmaandjon

interesting. that's the side she stood on as well! and yes, very very sore and tender. but i'm getting around pretty normally. must be adrenaline.

I had sharp pains on the right side up until about 4 weeks.  It was mostly when I'd try to get out of bed though.  9 days PP, I was just sore everywhere.

 I'm still numb near my incision though;  not sure if that goes away or not!

I honestly can't remember, but I just wanted to let you know that there is hope. ?I feel 100% recovered at this point. ?It's nice to know that I can expect to feel something at the?incision?if and when I'm pg again.

JezcaM

ditto. i'm 100% recovered.

Totally normal.  I still feel tenderness around one end of my incision.  Especially after running.
