Hi I’m 10pp and I was the same for a while. I think at like 6-7 months I started to feel better. I also had terrible back pain which is now gone. I only have a weird sensation now when I feel bloated.

Hmm I don’t remember other areas of my body being numb but I’m almost 22 months pp and my scar and the area around it is still numb

@Susie good to know, thanks!

@Ashley yeah, it's like a small section of my thigh is numb. but like, my actual scar has feeling, it's just like a small area on my stomach. thats why i was asking cause i'm an overthinker and immediately jump to worst case scenarios🥲

@val do you have any pain or weakness as well? I think with all three symptoms that would indicate some nerve damage. But numbness alone I wouldn’t be too concerned. The feeling will probably come back. Wouldn’t hurt to ask a dr though

I dont get numbness but my scar still has the healing itch and still hurts when to much pressure is applied to it and im 4months pp

My little one is now 15 months and I still got the numbness xx

Im 3 years pp from my 1st csection. I cant feel the lower half of my stomach

Skin wise

I think with any type of surgery, you may recover the sensation or you may not. I had knee surgery a decade ago and that’s what they told me. I still don’t have full sensation in part of my leg

I still had numb spots in my scar area two and a half years after my c section. Then I got pregnant again lol
