Pregnant with Tummy Tuck Scar Stretching and Hurting...

[preggoinak2012]

Hello,
I am currently 29 weeks pregnant and this is the second time I am doing this with a previous tummy tuck. The first time wasn't as bad for some reason, but this time the scar is beginning to stretch, itch, burn, rip, god you name it! I had some cream from a dermatologist (whom I can't remember the name) before to help relieve pain on the scar, but can't remember what it was. Any suggestions? I have done searches on the web, but there really aren't any answers...help!

Not sure about the cream, but have you tried BioOil? Good for healing scars and might help soothe it. It certainly wouldn't harm it to try, anyway. Hope you can find out what cream you were given before - it might be worth seeing your GP to see if they have the letter from the dermatologist when you were seen last time, which would say what it was they gave you.
