Where was your incision made?

roiko411 · January 2012

My incision was on my pubic bone not stomach. Its about an inch below where my stomach and pubic bone meet (ie. below the fold). The incision goes from left to right. I always thought incisions were made on the abdomen. Where was yours made?

Same as me... It's the bikini cut... Right where your underwear would top out.

Mine is actually in my abdomen. I had some major swelling issues and my fluid blocked DS and he was really high up. I have a vertical incision on my abdomen and a horizontal incision in my uterus.

If you have a classic/vertical cut in your uterus you can not try a vaginal birth. I was told that I could try vaginal next time. We'll see what the OB thinks when I get there.

Nice to know. I saw a thread about docs cutting through muscle so I thought that it was more common to get an incision on the abdomen.

This is an old school practice.

Mine is right above my pubic hair line - well below where my underwear goes.

Same as the others ( bikini) for my first two and he cut in the same place both times so only one scar.

Mine is low, way lower than I thought they were made. It's right at the top of my pubic bone and below the hair line. The nurse came in and said she was going to shave me and I was thinking omg I already did that...how low is he going to go?! And it's way lower than my underwear. If I wore undies that low my butt crack wouldn't be covered LOL
