It's hard to take it easy especially when you feel good, but take care of yourself! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/c-section-incision-bleeding-4-weeks-pp#post-1520757 Tue, 25 Mar 2014 16:19:19 +0000 artsyfartsy 1520757@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Everything is good! I popped it open but only the top layer of skin. I have powder and gauze to put on it until it heals. She swabbed it for infection and srnt it off but she said it didn't look infected. I go back next week for my regular 6 week PP appt and they'll recheck it.</p> <p>And I got a prescription to take it easy. Ugh. I'm tired of taking it easy!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/c-section-incision-bleeding-4-weeks-pp#post-1519738 Tue, 25 Mar 2014 11:16:45 +0000 Honeygold89 1519738@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Danizaur: hope it's fine </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/c-section-incision-bleeding-4-weeks-pp#post-1519710 Tue, 25 Mar 2014 11:09:34 +0000 swedishfish 1519710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Danizaur: good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/c-section-incision-bleeding-4-weeks-pp#post-1519702 Tue, 25 Mar 2014 11:08:17 +0000 artsyfartsy 1519702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have an appointment at 2:30! No more bleeding that I can tell, but it was so minimal yesterday I may be missing it. It burns but I feel okay. I'll ipdate you all in a few hours when I get out of my appointment. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/c-section-incision-bleeding-4-weeks-pp#post-1519296 Tue, 25 Mar 2014 09:31:27 +0000 MrsH 1519296@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hope you got in to see the dr! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/c-section-incision-bleeding-4-weeks-pp#post-1519286 Tue, 25 Mar 2014 09:29:04 +0000 LovelyPlum 1519286@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How are you this morning? I hope that your OB was able to get you in. I'm sorry this happened, and that the carseat still won :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/c-section-incision-bleeding-4-weeks-pp#post-1518925 Tue, 25 Mar 2014 05:57:54 +0000 bookwormmama 1518925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hope it turns out ok! I'm terrified of this happening (1 week PP) to my incision. Like I didn't want them to take the bandage off because I was so freaked out about it. Mine pulled apart a bit to drain while I was in the hospital. My mom said it's normal but the scar will be worse on that side. I get a lot of burning and tugging on that side though when I get out of bed sometimes so I'm totally worried about it opening up. I guess I just need to remember to take it easy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/c-section-incision-bleeding-4-weeks-pp#post-1518891 Tue, 25 Mar 2014 02:30:27 +0000 BabyMats 1518891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Danizaur: I hope you are okay. This happened to me. I went to my ob. She stuffed the opening part with (hurt like a B!) and gave me antibiotics. It took much longer for me tho heal because I over did it. It sucks just sitting around doing nothing and lifting nothing but really try not to over do it too much. Take care of yourself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/c-section-incision-bleeding-4-weeks-pp#post-1518800 Mon, 24 Mar 2014 22:55:12 +0000 indi 1518800@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Danizaur: eep! I hope you feel okay and it heals right up.<br /> @lilteacherbee: I laughted out loud. "Babe, get the honey. NO, don't bring the candles and chocolate syrup!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/c-section-incision-bleeding-4-weeks-pp#post-1518771 Mon, 24 Mar 2014 22:18:35 +0000 Mrs.Panda 1518771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes call! I'm sure it's not a big deal but incisions, especially abdominal ones, can be tricky. It's just God to make sure that only the skin opened and not any muscle underneath. At work, I often see abdominal wounds left partially open to drain and heal that way so I don't want you to worry. A dab of neosporin couldn't hurt and a loose bandage of gauze and tape if you have it. Otherwise a large bandaid is good just to protect it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/c-section-incision-bleeding-4-weeks-pp#post-1518763 Mon, 24 Mar 2014 22:13:49 +0000 lilteacherbee 1518763@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had abdominal surgeries when I was a kid, so my c-section incision kinda criss-crossed a vertical scar I already had. About 2 weeks after my c-section, it started oozing (ew, sorry, so gross!). I went to my OB and he said that there was less blood flow in that one spot, so it wasn't healing correctly. He gave me an antibiotic and told me to put honey directly on it (natural antiseptic apparently). Within a week, it was all better! (Having DH put honey on my incision was prettyyy weird...)</p> <p>So yes, I would definitely call! They may have you go in so they can check it out, but I hope everything is ok! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/c-section-incision-bleeding-4-weeks-pp#post-1518711 Mon, 24 Mar 2014 21:10:59 +0000 Applesandbananas 1518711@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a similar issue, I put a dab of neosporin on the unsealed spot and it was fine. I never had my dr look at it, but peace of mind never hurts. Hopefully everything is okay! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/c-section-incision-bleeding-4-weeks-pp#post-1518702 Mon, 24 Mar 2014 21:08:09 +0000 yoursilverlining 1518702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely call your doctor in the morning! I didn't have any bleeding at my incision site and definitely would have called my doctor if i did. I'm sure everything is ok, but better have them take a look at it in the morning :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/c-section-incision-bleeding-4-weeks-pp#post-1518674 Mon, 24 Mar 2014 20:48:42 +0000 artsyfartsy 1518674@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I may have popped my incision open. I was trying to get the car seat out of the base by myself today and struggled and I think I overdid it. I just noticed some blood in my underwear that lined up with my incision so I had DH check and sure enough, he said there's a small quarter inch part that isn't "sealed" together right where the blood was in my underwear. It was only a teensy amount but it's the first bleeding I've had from the incision. It burns a bit now too. </p> <p>I'm going to call my doctor first thing in the morning (it's 10pm here) but I was wanting to know if anyone had any experience! I don't know if it's from pulling too hard on the car seat (I REALLY overdid it. I remember thinking in the moment I should take it easy...but I wasn't about to let that damned car seat win. Even though it did anyway. Lol) but it would make sense. </p>
