Yup same here. I can’t sleep on my left side because it hurts and every time I sleep on my right side by the morning I’m in pain. I have to sleep on my back which isn’t really a problem because i prefer sleeping on my back. Also if I do a lot of work and on my feet a lot throughout the day, my scar hurts a lot. I’ve heard scar pain is normal. My mil still has scar pain here and there after 30 years. I was thinking of going to my OB and confirming that it’s normal because the pain gets really bad sometimes.

I get most pain on my left to, I have to swap every so often in my sleep. Am a single mum so always running round after the kids. Yeah was thinking off asking my consultant when I see them

I had my C-section 4 months ago and I'm not getting pain in my scar that's still numb but the skin around my scar is really sensitive and my lower back aches if I stand up a lot or for a long period of time

I had a c section December 2021 the ends of the scar does get sore but I use bio oil and massage the area which has really helped.

Nothing yet! Had mine in June 2020.
