I'm two weeks post section and had a look at the wound as I've been feeling twinges (internally, on the other side). Is this redness normal?

I’m pretty sure mine looked like that for a while, the redness took a long time to go. That said, mine was infected initially, but it was weeping green puss Blush

That does look wet, is it open too, tiny holes? Mine took nine weeks to knit together, two lots of anti biotics and a cream. I didn't feel unwell I just wanted it sorted before it got worse. Wouldn't hurt to have it checked over?

Mine looked like that. Mine also oozed a bit too.

But it was fine, healed after a couple of weeks. Just keep an eye on it every day.
