How long ago did you have the section? You need a doctor asap.

My stretch marks go like that when I have too much sun (sunburn on the delicate skin) but if csection was recent I'd ask the midwife

It was 5 weeks ago today. Its not on the c section. Its on the stretch marks that are above it.

Really, BillBrysonsBeard ??
I showed my health visitor who was also a nurse who went into further training to be a HV and she said my wound looks clean and looks to be healing fine and that the blisters was probably just access fluid that had no where to go and will probably just absorb back into my body and dry up .

What happened with yours??

They just went away! My wound looked healed after a week and I was nicely signed off. Then I started getting those blister things, then leaking, then wound started opening up- just little holes.. I just kept it clean every night and it healed by itself. I was told it was leaking from when they've cut into the fat. It was fully healed in 5 months Smile
