C section scar
Hello, I am due to have my dressing removed on boxing day and been wondering if there is any advice of how I can keep the scar area from getting sweaty. As a plus size girlie I'm worried my apron belly may cause the area to get more sweaty more quickly

Ah so will your midwife advise you how best to after it
I dried mine with hairdryer on cold! Healed lovely - didn’t always have the time (or patience) to let it air dry 🥰
Just keep gauze in between your scar and belly, and change it 3 times a day😁 it did helped me
@Hannah i found i had to do this too! My last baby was born during that ridiculous 40° heatwave in 2022 and i sat with a fan between my legs drying the scar out 🫣😅 I don't remember having an issue with the November 2019 baby, so we will see what the January 2025 baby is like. But the hairdryer sounds more appropriate for winter 😅

I was advised to wash it with water only, pat dry with a towel and put a sanitary towel on it 😀
