Ftm so not sure how long it lasts but yes I have it too.
TTC #1 since August 2011 w/ unexplained IF
09/12-11/13: 3 TIs, 3 IUIs, ICSI/PGS IVF & 2 FETs
08/14: Our little miracle has FINALLY arrived - 3 years after we started trying!
First c/s but third kid, so I can't say how long it will last, but I have it all the way around my incision, top and bottom. The only thing I've found to help is keeping the layers from touching anything. (I have the terrible belly flap)
Numbness will likely replace this other sensation. I have had many women tell me that, 20+ years after their c-sections, this skin is still numb. I gained some sensation back after the last one somewhere around 9 months pp.

Mine felt super sensitive for the first few weeks, but now (at 3 weeks pp) it's definitely fading. This is my third c/s, but I don't remember this from the last 2. Bigger baby/more stretching maybe?
This is my first c/s, but my incision got infected about one week pp, so definitely keep an eye on it. It got more and more sensitive, then got red and swelled up. The day before I went on antibiotics, it hurt so bad it was hard to walk. Now, at 2.5 weeks pp, it is only slightly sensitive/burny-feeling.
