    I have a bit of a fold under my belly button. There is tape there. My ps said she did extra work there to smoothe out the skin as it was very poor quality. Now I am 8 days post op and it looks like a small flap or fold with also some slight stretch marks coming from it. Anyone know if this will smooth out? My ps is a body contour specialist so would be surprised with any " mistakes" but never know. It is early to judge but wonder if anyone had like experience.

    Also been off meds for at least 4 days and my face got into an itchy rash, like allergic reaction. neon had that? My ps said not to worry.....

    Tx for any comments!

    Is it normal that on day 6 post op I am still sitting in recliner most of the day, just up to pee and get water. Sorry to sound obsessive, but also I am not used to sitting with 3 kids!

    Thanks barbie, that's helpful to know how you managed to fianally get out and when. Congrats. I am feeling so exhausted despite just sitting around. I assume resting helps heal faster in this case, and just move around a bit to keep things flexible??
    Tomorrow my 3 toddlers arrive with hubby and nanny so probably best to rest today for sure!
    Be well and thanks.

    My c section scar was red and raised, not nice, so my ps said we may do scar therapy. Anyone know when silicone treatment begins? I am only 6 days post op and still have the same surgical tape covering my incision. Starting to itch which I know means it is healing.
    Thanks!

    When the ps says no physical activity for 2 weeks, I assume the sitting. At what point can you leave the house of course with assistance, perhaps to sit outside at a cafe. Any input? I am only 5 days post op but was hoping after 2 weeks to get out a bit??
