Think you should contact your GP as it could be infected, and you may just need a course of antibiotics. My scar got a small infection with my first baby.

thank you

Tbf mine is more painful now but I think when we first come home you have strong painkillers (are you still taking all yours i’ve cut down on a lot of mine as they make me out of it), adrenaline, tiredness and cut nerves which are healing and reconnecting all the time so it makes sense we’d feel it more now than then, I feel the same and wound looks similar but have been told it’s fine and part of the healing process!
