Hello everyone.
I can't feel any sensation near my scar. It is completely normal though. The surgeons cut through little nerves during the procedure x

Same - numb after almost 8 years here. I don't especially notice though unless I pinch myself or something.

Mines still numb after 2 years... Although it does get itchy. How can it be numb but itchy?! Mental.

I wish mine were numb! 6 wks post c section and mine just feels raw/burning.

It's an excuse not to wash up - I like to lean but I can't feel any splashes on my abdomen and end up with wet clothes that I sometimes don't notice until much later

I've just remembered that as well as a numb belly and half are, my left ear lobe was numb for months too. When I mentioned it to any medical professionals, all I got was Hmm

Mine was numb for 5 weeks, "hot" on week 6 and felt back to normal by week 8.

13 years and I still have a numb bit

Numb for a cm or 2 above and below scar. Sections 14 and 10 years ago.

CoffeeCoffeeAndLotsOfIt · 12/04/2016 19:54

Mine is still a bit numb after almost 4 years

MrsBenWyatt · 12/04/2016 22:16

Kanye I also have a numb arse, but mine is the top half! I'm only six weeks post my second section, so hoping I'll improve soon.

No numbness after first section, though.
