Pain 3 weeks after c-section

Hi everyone,

I had a c-section three weeks ago - it was planned so very straight forward and I was up and about quickly with minimal pain. I came off the painkillers after a week or so as was healing well and didnt have any pain.

The past couple of days the area above my scar just below my belly button has been sore to touch. Scar has healed well so no other issues.

Just wanted to check if this is normal or if I should be going back to docs?

Congratulations on the birth of your baby!

I have no advice but I am in the same situation! Had c section 3 weeks ago and felt fine last week but started hurting on one side again! What does your scar look like? Is there dry blood around it? I have dry blood and don't know if that's normal? Also slight redder patch on the side that's hurting and I'm worried it could be infected...

Mine is still sore in that area two years later. It might never go away.
