Should I call the doctor or am I being paranoid? I'm 15 weeks with my 2nd and I have shortness of breath and my csection scar hurts. Is this normal? I forgot to tell my doctor last time that I've been feeling a slight pain around my scar area at my last appointment.

Never hurts to call if you're worried.
-
yes, call! hope it's nothing serious!
-
I would call. The worst it could be is a false alarm but that is why you have a doctor.
-
I bet it's nothing but I would still call. I don't take any chances with pregnancy related things. I hope your Dr can give you some reassurance and that you feel better!
-
I'd call!! Just to put your mind at ease. My midwife said she gets upset thinking people are sitting at home worried about something because they are worried they will be a bother if they call, so just call!

I just called the number I normally call to make an appt and I couldn't figure out how to get a hold of someone on call. They left a number "in the event you have an obstetrical emergency and or in labor"--do I call that number?
-
@keiki_mama: yup I thimk that's the number you would call.
-
@keiki_mama: your hospital should have a nurse hotline - I would call that first
-
Yes.
My rule of thumb is if I have to ask if I should call, the answer is always yes.

Thanks ladies! I called. They're not too terribly concerned with the scar since my most recent ultrasound came back normal. She said a lot of times scar tissue develops behind the incision and to massage it. She was more concerned with the shortness of breath. I'm drinking a ton of water and lying down to rest on my side.
