question about c-section scar
by Adevotee, Dec 12, 2006 12:00AM
I had my son via c-section January 2003. I am now 36 weeks 5 days with baby #2. I have been experiencing major pain in my incision scar (inside) when the baby bumps it. It brings me to tears.
I have an OB appt tomorrow and am going to make sure that I mention this to my OB. He is supposed to be checking my cervix to see if I am starting to dilate, if I am, he has said that he will break my water. I am unsure if that is a good idea now. I don't want to go through labor if my incision scar is being REALLY stretched.
Is this normal?? Should I be overly concerned about it??

I am really hoping that I can try for a VBAC but if I can't then that is ok too. As long as this baby and I are healthy, then it doesn't matter how he/she got here.
I will update when I get back from my appt tomorrow, hopefully. If I can't (due to having my water broke) :), I will post a birth story asap.
