I had a c section a year ago (first was a natural birth). When 1 yr old or toddler push on the scar it has always hurt. During play theyll climb over me or go to sit on my lap (but miss lap and bum slides down lower tummy) and if theyre a little rough its really painful. Is this normal and just something to live with or have i not healed correctly? (pain is inside not the scar)

Mine still hurts on occasion, 2 yrs on. Not very painful but uncomfortable. It's possible that the scar tissue inside is to tight and that's causing your pain. But I have been told that because of all the nerves in the area it can take ages for it to completely settle. Maybe head to the doc for an ultrasound to make sure it's not an unresolved stitch or something nasty.
Hi, I have had 2 emergency c's, 1st 5 yrs ago 2nd 8mths ago. Apart from the first month I haven't had any ongoing pain. Rough wrestling with my son doesn't hurt.
I would suggest seeing your gp for a scan, could be something simple to fix
