Gross!I am feeling a lot better lately. Getting pretty close to back to normal. I can get up and down and do pretty much everything like I did before. I remember two weeks ago I could not even get up from a laying down position in the morning by myself. My only worry is how seperated my incision is at the top. The right picture shows the top portion. The incision is stretched apart right there and there is a yellow crust forming. Pure grossness. The bottom portion is healing nicely I think. The only part that hurts is the top part where it is pulling apart. The whole thing pretty much itches like a bitch. I wish at ti
mes that I could take a hair brush and run it up and down the length of this valley running down my gigantic belly. To the left of the incision you can see a vertical red mark. That is where I itched it so hard it bled. I was bleeding through my shirt. I itch it in the middle of the night and I don't even know until I wake up in the morning.
The incision comes in handy for one thing and one thing only. Sympathy. I lift up my shirt and flash that incision and suddenly Sophia is helping me with anything and everything. "Auntie, do you need a bottle of water? Auntie, can I get you anything? Do you need help with anything?" It is absolutley fantastic.

Nice job on milking the sympathy from Sophie. She just doesn't want you to be hurting with any kind of owwwie.
ok-that doesn't look very good. Have you asked your doc if it's supposed to look like that? You should call and check. Stop scratching!! Do you put anything on it to keep from itching?
