Is this normal
I am 4 months pp and had to have a C-section but is it normal for the belly to still feel like it’s numb and I not sure if it’s related but I have had sharp pains at side on scar since then but this week it hurt that much that I have been struggling to turn in bed as hurting. I am going doctors Tuesday but the phone convo I had with them he seemed useless n didn’t understand what I was meaning.

Yes, completely normal. I still have some slight numbness and we’re 20months PP - sharp pains went around a year after x
18 months pp and still have numbness
I think the numbness is normal.. I could touch / scratch my scar without it hurting or feeling tender around 6months after having it. Just remember it’s a major surgery we went through and the healing process takes time! As far as the pains, I’m not sure but if your concerned and they don’t give any helpful advice on Tuesday, I’d definitely make another appointment with a different doctor! Xx
Thank you all. That’s made me feel better xx
I’m 3 and half month post c section and still feel numb and hurt to press on it I had physio for my back but they looked at my scar and mentioned scar massaging and touching all the tingling areas near scar to try and reactivate the nerve endings and they will still be reattaching (don’t in one if that’s the right terminology) but. Hey Ho
Dont know about the sharp pains but I’m 3.5 months pp and it’s still numb. My friend said her numbness lasted for about a year so I think it’s normal. X
