Fetal scalp electrode mark

Did anyone else have to have the fetal scalp electrode? My little one is 7 weeks old now and still has a large scab and dent in her head from it 😩

My little one had a small scab on her head but it’s starting to fade now thankfully she’s 5.5 weeks. Doesn’t seem to bother her thankfully

@Bethany Allan it doesn’t bother mine either thankfully it just looks sore because of the dent, good to know it’s not just us though 💕

Yes mine had a big scab for the first 2 weeks - still got some small scabs now @ 7 weeks.

Yeah it’s the worst when you can see where it’s been and feel bad on them as it looks like it would have been sore xx

Yes my lg is 7 weeks & can still see the scab

Same at 6 1/2 weeks. My LO also has a scar beside his eye from forceps :(

Thank you everyone 💕 less worried that it’s not healing how it’s meant to now I know other people still have them!

@Ellen oh no 😞 bless him, I hope it fades as he grows!
