Glue or staples?

this time I didn't get staples. I got the glue. I'm 2 weeks post c section.. It was falling off anyways so I pulled it off. I know I know they said not to. I'm pretty sure 2 weeks, I'm good. Well on doing so, I saw that 90% of my incision healed beautifully. But the side that hurts still and has sharp pains is swollen and not closed together like the rest. I mean it's not split open or seeping. It's just not healed like the rest. I had pulled it when I first got home, but I thought it would have been good by now. (Well good enough.) makes me wonder what the inside looks like?

Anyways, what procedure did they do for you? Do you have staples.. Glue.. Something else I haven't heard of? Lol
(My first c section was staples, and then taped)

  • Yea healing has been sooo much easier! Except the part on my right side that I pulled. But the rest of it is such a small line! They cut through my old scar, so as for healing to where I can't see it.. Lol. But I really couldn't see my old one. But I'm proud of scars. Lol I even showed it off so many times. Lol!

    I got glue too.
    And my right side hurts more than the left. She also sat in the right more. So I assume the had to manipulate the right side more to get her and the placenta out They said they used stitches on the insides. I had an allergic reaction to the adhesive on the drape so they did not use the tape. And honestly the rash hurts more than anything else.
