Numb section scar, 23weeks pregnant

I had my last C-section near 4yrs ago, June 2015. My scar area has never been an issue to be honest but I noticed today that the scar itself and the area surrounding it is actually numb, or not much feeling there. I'm guessing this is due to bump growing and my skin stretching, is this right? I've only recently started to get a bump so haven't noticed it before. I've had 3 previous sections and I'm due my 4th in July. It isn't sore as such, the only way I can describe the sensation is when you stretch an elastic band over your skin.

How are other section Mammys getting in with their current pregnancies and are any of you also experiencing this?

I'm not pregnant but have had three c sections and my scar is completely numb. This is apparently extremely common so I wouldn't be worried. Maybe mention it to your midwife at your next appointment to ease your concerns. Congratulations!
