Jeans post c section

When did you start wearing jeans? I've been living in high wasted trackies and maternity leggings. 8 weeks post c section today. Have Christmas work meal so want to wear jeans but it worries me a bit. Anyone else had this?

I wore jeans about 3 weeks post. If you feel comfortable to then do it. x

@Lea scar looks healed just a little sensitive at times so guess I'm just worried about rubbing 🤔

@Claire I get what you mean. I either wore high waisted pants under my high waisted jeans or, you could put a maternity pad or period pad (thinner) along your scar so there’s a bit of padding and protection there. 8 weeks you should be healed externally as long as your healing has gone well with no infections or opening :) x

I didn’t wear jeans for a few months afterwards. I just found them uncomfortable, so stuck to leggings/tights for a while. It wasn’t that I wasn’t healed enough, they just felt more restrictive.

@Lea thank you great ideas! I had a small infection 3 weeks ago but closed externally quickly

I’m a year post partum and still haven’t worn jeans 😂 they just don’t feel comfortable on my scar but I’m starting to get more comfortable with things touching it so will try again soon. I’ve just been living in legging, high waisted trousers, dresses etc x

I wore them about a week or ten days postpartum I think, but they were comfy jeans and I didn’t have any pain after about day 5 of my c section x

I got a pair a size up and wore them 5 weeks pp but with a scar patch so they didn’t rub my scar

First time I wore them was 8 weeks to a birthday party but I didnt wear them before I don’t like the feel of them x
