Hi! My c section was December 2024. At my 6 week checkup, i shared i had this point tender pain like an inch above and maybe .25 inches to the right of my belly button. Got an ultrasound a nothing. 15 months later im still having this point tenderness. Sometimes the pain is more apparent, sometimes baby is held a certain way and i get pain there. Not sure if a nerve thing, an adhesion, something else? Anyway thought I would ask if anyone has dealt with something similar. Did you figure out what caused it?

I’m the same it keeps coming and going. I’m post c section nearly 5 months. I got checked and they just said it takes round 12 months for your insides to heal xx

I’m four weeks post section and feel this too

I was having similar pains and aches about an inch over on the right and left sides of my incision and even the area below my belly button. My OB said that the fascia layer doesn’t stretch like the rest of the layers of your skin. So the fascia is cut a bit wider than the rest of the layers and it takes a little longer to heal. I’m about 8 weeks postpartum and I can still feel a slight pain from time to time.

Hiya so I had a C-section in July 2024 and at my 6-week checkup I found out that it was infected and they gave me an antibiotic cream. For a few days now I've been having pain on the right side above the surgery and sometimes it feels like a stinging sensation.

It can take two year to feel yourself and I believe our bodies are never the same after cause we arnt able to do our normal ways and learn new ways and lose muscles we once used all the time

I'm 5 months pp after my c-section and my lower belly is still tender. I can touch it and it's still sore. It's all to do with nerves. I still have tenderness in my scar and I know moms whose kids are 20 years plus and they still have tenderness in their belly and in their scar
Has anyone had a c section scheduled, but then baby decided to come early? What happened then? Were they still able to do a c section?

Hi all,
Had my 28 week scan and baby was measuring 67th percentile overall, but head at 97th percentile.
Freaking out that something is wrong with their brain and have to wait until Thursday for my 32 week growth scan.
Had a loss at 24 weeks last year and don't think I could cope with more bad news :(

I am aware that the fear I am having is irrational but I am seeking similar stories and some re-assurance. I had a private scan which I thought was 9th week, it proved to be 13+3 weeks, despite rushing to book NHS appts, I missed the window for NT check against Down Syndrome. My blood test against the syndrome at 17 weeks came back low risk, my 20 week anomaly scan showed no concerns and everything is fine, including nuchal fold in norm. However, due to the fact I had no NT checked (I realised post private scan that it was just a basic one), I am kinda freaking out as I am 40, already feel guilty that I got my dates so wrong at the start, and the private examiner asked if I planned the blood tests which felt a bit odd. It might have been just a routine question, however it's stuck with me. Any similar stories? With happy ending of course 🙈😅
