Its nearly 5 weeks since i had my c-section and the scar is so itchy. What did you do to relieve the itching?
-
scratched.
Seriously though, I did just scratch, and it went away on it's own. I just tried not to think about it too much.

Sorry to give you bad news but it's been 18 months and mine still itches. Not as much as it used to but once in a while it'll remind me it's there. And, it's still slightly numb although 80% of the nerves have recovered. Yeah, and I just scratched discreetly, lol.

lol wow still numb and itchy after 18 months!!

Didn't have a csection, but I did recently have surgery and I have a big scar on my back. It was soooo itchy. It helped me to know that if I scratched id have to have another surgery.... because I have a battery in my back and if you touch it there's a chance it'll turn over and I cant recharge myself then. Which doesn't help you at all. Hope the itching stops soon!

Mine only itched for like 5 or 6 weeks. But at week 6 I started using Earth Mama Angel Baby C-Salve, and it helped a LOT.

@artbee: lol! that back scar sounds painful
@LivsMama: I'll have to look into that c-salve!
-
Mine itches today! 21 weeks post partum!
-
@Mrsbells: It doesn't itch all the time - like every few weeks, I'll get a random itch attack.
-
@Mrsbells: It finally doesn't hurt anymore. I have to charge it by pressing the charger against it and all that pressure on it made it take longer to heal I think. Now I don't feel it, but it looks gross.

Mine doesn't itch, but it randomly hurts. It's not numb either. I wonder if mine is different.
