C section scar

I had a section 9 months ago and im currently 16 weeks pregnant, at my antenatal appointment today the midwife pressed really hard against my scar to listen to the babys heartbeat, my scar has been weeping slightly ever since and iv also had a few cramping pains especially after i sneezed, wen ive just ran a baby wipe along the scar it stung a little. When should i be worried???

If you're concerned I'd suggest going to one of the nurses at your local surgery, they can check it over and make sure it's not infected, and clean it and dress it if needs be. Maybe ask the receptionist who is best to talk to. If it's weeping I'd get it looked at sooner rather than later, it might well clear up on its own or with a little antibac like savlon, but you don't want to risk it getting infected as that would be painful!
