Every month for the last 18 months or so my c section scar has felt like it's ripping open, my youngest is 10 so old scar, it shows nothing on the outside but it's got to the stage where I have to hold it when I cough etc, I have finally got a dr appointment on Wednesday but wondered if this was just a normal part of getting older (47). My periods are regular as clockwork but have been horrendously heavy since I had my last child and had my tubes tied at same time.
