C Section Scar During Pregnancy

Anyone else’s c section scar starting to act up during pregnancy? I’m two years postpartum and never really dealt with any complications with my scar, but recently it’s started itching like crazy and sometimes hurts (feels tight/pulling). Is anyone else experiencing this? I’m not sure if it’s normal.

I have the same problem. It be so bad to where you want to scratch it with the sharpest knife in the world lol

Mine was itchy as hell!! It’s just all that scar tissue breaking up…no biggie lol

Mines would swell up and itch to where I would have to stop driving because anything touching it hurts

Im having the right pulling sensation. I’m pregnant with my second and 1 year postpartum

Yes! I'm 2.5 years postpartum. I commented on another post, it also makes my round ligament pain worse when I sneeze or cough.

Did you ever try to break up scar tissue? I’ve heard it’s excruciating but I know some athletes who have gone through it and it helps them.

Mine hasn't bothered me and I am actually 20 weeks pregnant with baby #3 first born is 3 middle is 10 months.

Update: I bought some scar tissue silicone tape and it has helped immensely with the itching. Not completely gone, but so so much better.
