When did your incision area heal?

My baby will be a year this week and I still have pain sometimes. Not all the time but the other day I tried to pick him up out his stroller and idk if I did it funny or what but it actually brought me to tears.
Very normal to feel itchy! It’s just healing 🩵
Not sure how active you are, but it might be time start strengthening your pelvic floor and core muscles again! They recommend this pretty much from day 1 and it helps with healing, strengthening etc. Also scar massage I thin you can do from 4/5/6 weeks (don’t quote me on that) but that also helps to break down the scar tissue and smooth it out x
It’s because of the internal part. They literally rip you open the inside can take a bit longer to feel normal again. And you have to train your core muscles again not rn take your time to heal and once it starts feeling better then start light
I’m 12 weeks and it still hurts, obviously a lot less but it’s a process - it’s many layers and your body takes time to heal, it’s normal, the itchyness it’s it healing xx 🤍🤍
Over 2 years postpartum and mine keeps opening to this day I have to have surgery again to try and fix it
We got cut open. That doesnt heal fast. Itll take a year or so
Mine took 15 weeks lol. I kept having problems with the insicon ripping and had to get it re stitched a few times , and i battled infections due to that. But i also had an emerg c section, and they had a hard time getting it to stay sutured. There wer ecomplications.
Felt exactly the same with pain and getting up etc… I’m 8weeks pp tomorrow and still get a niggle of pain if I’ve overdone it doing something.. keep ontop of painkillers like paracetamol and take an ibuprofen to help swelling too Itching was totally normal too… it can also be your nerves knitting back together which gives the feeling of itching… if it is itchy then itch above the wound on your stomach
