Like itches intensely. I worry I'll forget I'm in public and scratch it making everyone think I've got crabs or something :P Honeydew on "Does your incision still feel fragile to you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-incision-still-feel-fragile-to-you#post-1866506 Wed, 17 Sep 2014 14:49:13 +0000 Honeydew 1866506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ My incision healed really well. Every once in a while I get a pain that feels like its about to come apart. I'm 8 months pp. babynumber1 on "Does your incision still feel fragile to you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-incision-still-feel-fragile-to-you#post-1866418 Wed, 17 Sep 2014 14:10:03 +0000 babynumber1 1866418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Danizaur: Mine is still incredibly sensitive and LO turned 2 in May!

My nerves got the best of me this time. I'm normally not such a wuss! artsyfartsy on "Does your incision still feel fragile to you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-incision-still-feel-fragile-to-you#post-1866247 Wed, 17 Sep 2014 13:10:26 +0000 artsyfartsy 1866247@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Mrs. Jump Rope: My doctor instructed me at my 1 week PP appointment to remove the steri strips. I was too afraid to touch them and when I came back when my incision popped open a couple of weeks later she got mad when she saw some were still there. Lol!!

Even though I can see a healed scar I'm convinced they're holding me closed & if they come off my inscision will break open. I'm a mess this time :/ BananaPancakes on "Does your incision still feel fragile to you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-incision-still-feel-fragile-to-you#post-1866059 Wed, 17 Sep 2014 12:13:17 +0000 BananaPancakes 1866059@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm 2.5 years out and it's still sensitive. My son somehow knows how to dig his little toes into it when I'm carrying him. Leaning against the counter can sometimes hurt, too. I never had any issues with the incision, but I think I must have a bit of interior scar tissue that makes it so sensitive.

It was very freaky! The crazy thing is that I have a similar bump on my navel incision from my gall bladder surgery. I'm just waiting for the creepy burst, lol.

Duh. I remember now. I had a teeny tiny spot open *above* my inscision line. I was so freaked out and thought I would get a nasty infection. Like you, it was a small pocket fluid. My OB told me to do warm compresses 3x/day and it drained all the fluid & now it looks healed. But holy cow I was freaking out at the red bubble that was draining clear fluid. Eeeeehhh!

I didn't know that could happen so late in the healing process. Are you ok?

I was feeling ok with it until a part popped open last week (4 months after cs!). Now, I'm more careful. ladybee on "Does your incision still feel fragile to you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-incision-still-feel-fragile-to-you#post-1826087 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 15:40:44 +0000 ladybee 1826087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yup. Mine came open to so I was super nervous about it. I don't want to say it hurts but it more tingles and has other weird sensations occasionally. So weird! plantains on "Does your incision still feel fragile to you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-incision-still-feel-fragile-to-you#post-1826084 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 15:35:00 +0000 plantains 1826084@https://boards.hellobee.com/ No, after 2 months or so it felt fine.

Sometimes it felt like a tugging in the inside and the scar itched. Not the second time around. This time I massaged it more and don't feel anything and I'm 3 months pp. My Only Sunshine on "Does your incision still feel fragile to you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-incision-still-feel-fragile-to-you#post-1825957 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 14:18:30 +0000 My Only Sunshine 1825957@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yes! Mine sort of pulls if I stretch really far and it's still tender if I bump up against something or my daughter bumps it when she's climbing all over me. I'm a year post partum. @Danizaur: ouch! That sounds awful. artsyfartsy on "Does your incision still feel fragile to you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-incision-still-feel-fragile-to-you#post-1825945 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 14:12:13 +0000 artsyfartsy 1825945@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @BlueWolverine: mine burned really badly leaning over the bed changing LO the other day. My mom said hers still burns sometimes and her c section was 16 years ago!

Sometimes when we're playing on the floor, LO will dig her heel in and OUCH. LO is 19 months old.

I'm still afraid to touch it! I'm 6 months PP. It popped open once about a month after my c section so that's probably why! I'll have to get over it because in about 6 more months I'm planning on stretching it out again!
