I'm 7 weeks post partum after an elective c section. I had cellulitis around part of the incision site but that was treated and went away.
I've been checked by the gp and health visitor and all's healed well etc.
Until last night I felt a bit uncomfortable so I gave it a little clean and there was blood and other yuckiness and after a lot of looking I've found a part that's not fully shut and that's where it's come from, it's probably less than a centimetre long.
Has anyone had this? Tia

Yes I had an infection in my c section wound which required antibiotics. It didn't help I had quite an overhang ( and still have many many years later!). Get to your GP ASAP. X

Oh that's a good point actually, my tummy is pretty far from flat so that can't be helping.
I'll have to start paying rent to the gp soon 🤦🏻‍♀️
Thankyou
