I am 33 weeks pregnant with my 2nd baby, my c-section scar feels lumpy, if i run my finger along the scar i can feel lumps under the skin along the scar. Is this normal?

Hi,I'm pregnant too and my C section scar also feels a bit lumpy.I'm thinking it's just scar tissue?

Hello, nothing to worry about at all Im 30 weeks pregnant with my 4th and i have had c-sections with all 3 of my others!! When the surgeon cuts through your 'layers', while they heal they tend to heal to 'each other' a little too afterwards, its very normal, but when your all 'stretched out' again, its easier to feel the scar tissues underneath the surface too. It shouldnt be a problem unless you have any sudden sharp pains or similar from your scar area! It must be pretty rare, but i know of (not personally) a lady that has just had her 11th c-section, and she's never had any problems! (yikes!!)
