Im 29 + 3 weeks and ive had 2 previous pregnancies. I have had to have csections due to my first being premature and now i am not allowed to give birth naturally. Today i have been experienceing only what i can describe as a sore feeling inside where i was cut. It feels as though baby is moving very close to the scar and it just makes me want to hold the bottom of my bump to make it stop. Also ive started to feel very sick mostly when i get this sore feeling. Any ideas how i can try and sooth this a little and is this something i should be concerned about?

I would check with your midwife, my csection scar is over 2 years old and still hurts from time to time so im sure its just tender skin stretching to allow for bump. its probably all related to braxton hicks.

Hope everythings ok.

If its any consolation I had surgery 2 months ago to have my appendix out and I get exactly the same as you described every day - the wound is obviously still fresh in my case.

I have been sick from the pain/sensation too.

I have to see a consultant obstetrician tomorrow as no longer allowed MLU birth.

I've heard others say their c section scars hurt during pregnancy because of the stretching of the stomach to allow for bump. Hopefully it will pass for you, but if you are concerned, just contact your midwife for peace of mind. It's what she's there for! Smile
