I also have a long appendectomy scar (had staples for that and never will again!!!) not far above it and the scar tissue from that and now this one are pushing on my bowel a little...that is painful at times so am hoping that goes real soon!<span style="font-size:10px"><br /><br />Edited by Bombshell</span>]]>

It was just that dr and nurses have all said that mine is fairly low, it is just 1cm up from my fufu(as Lu put it).  It sometimes gets quite numb down there, and other times is sore.  Will this last forever or will the numbness and pain eventually go away?]]>

About a cm down. I really cant complain she did a fantastic job. All my other surgery scars is sometimes itchy or no feeling. So I was worried but this is the only scar that I dont have weird things happening too.<br /><br />Another reason why I better find a great dr for the next one. Hubby is joking and saying we must get her out here for a holiday. ]]>

It is still numb around the area.<br />I had a c/s after 24 hrs of labour as my big 10lb8oz boy also has a very large head.]]>

I ended up with staples instead of suture as it would have taken forever to close me up. I had a GA and when she was born they had to stick a tube down her throat&nbsp; to give her O2.

I keep telling myself that's a good thing (that it's not going as quickly) but it's hard to believe it sometimes!]]>

They sew you up with the dis solvable stuff and leave out a bit that connects one side of your scar to the other. If you have problems they can easily remove it that way. I had no problems nor infection.]]>

And not vacuum the house and help lifting and moving stuff when we moved house at 6 weeks after birth. <br /><br />But it healed really nicely. I didnt have stitches that you can see or staples. It was stitches from the inside and then some sort of special glue thing or something. Couldnt see anything from the outside.<br /><br />]]>
