Nine weeks post c section.

Recovery was fine, stopped loosing blood after about 3/4 weeks. Have since been wiping jelly like substance from vagina. However now stomach is tender to touch not near the incision above this, from belly button all way down and across. Even t shirts moving over tummy Is irritating and sore to touch. No fever and generally felt ok. Does anyone know what this could be? Dr said just to keep an eye on it.

You could be ovulating and your period coming on and experiencing mittelschmerz (ovulation pain) based on your cervical discharge

Following as I’ve been experiencing the exact same 6 weeks pp with pain mostly being on the right side. I had an infection around 4 weeks pp and it’s the same pain I experienced then so I assumed I was getting another infection but have the doctors tomorrow for my 6 week appointment so will definitely be mentioning it. I hope you start to feel better soon! X

I’ve been having discharge for over a week, getting pains today and some blood when I wipe, I’m 6 weeks pp x

I had this and everything hurt my skin. I was really worried and did also go to the doctors. It did eventually go, around 8/9 weeks pp. Just wanted to say so you know there is light at the end of the tunnel! I think it is a lot to do with nerves knitting back together x

@Danielle - I hope so mine seems to be getting more sensitive not less so was making me very worried. Holding the baby now is sore, wearing cloths is sore it fells like it should all be bruised that’s the only way I can describe the felling.

Nerves knitting back together and muscles getting used to being used again. I'm slightly less sensitive at 15 weeks post but still don't like being touched on my tummy and still have days where its a bit sore x

I have felt this, not the discharge but I’m 3 weeks pp and the skin close to my belly button hurts. I know it’s the skin and not inside but clothes etc does hurt x
