C section recovery

Hello!
I had an elective c section 14 months ago and recovered very well generally. However the wound feels very bruised still if touched.
If not pressing on it it doesn’t hurt at all.
however it feels bruised even if I just brush it up against something (eg trying to squeeze through a tight gap) and really aches after exercise (I’m very active and do a lot of Pilates and running).

is this normal?
im pregnant again (very early days) and am worried its going to be very sore as time goes on.

thanks!

Discuss with midwife and ask her to refer you to Physio I think

I still get little twinges two years after mine (I'm not pregnant)
