It's only day 5 but they were supposed to take the prolene out today. They decided against it as the right side is still open and weeping. It doesn't look infected and isn't painful/smelly and I have no temp but they've swabbed to be on the safe side.
It seems to try and knit together overnight but when I move in the morning, I can feel it opening again. It stings for a couple of seconds each time I move in the morning. I'm having daily heparin injections and the mw did mention that the wound could be open a bit as there's a bruise above it and it could be draining through it.
When I had dd the wound healed up really quickly and without problems. This time it looks oozy and horrible.
Any chance it's going to be alright. I did search the archives and have read that it can go on for months.
I admit I've probably done far too much this week. I have a 4yo to look after too and she is starting school tomorrow. I have to do the school run (bus journey and half a mile walk) twice a day.
I feel like I'm going to have a weeping hole in my stomach for the forseeable future.
