My c/s scar I thought was healing.  Instead of getting better, it has felt worse the last few days.  It feels almost like it did that first week after my surgery.  I've gone back to my ibuprophen - though I'd really like to take my davocet.  And...there's a little spot at the end (I think where the stitches were tied off) that has bleed a bit the last few days.  It hasn't been a lot - just enough to stain my underwear.  And, today I noticed a tiny spot of green discharge.  I have my 6 week check-up appt on Tues morning.  Is anyone else having issues?  I didn't have this problem at all with DS!

I had these exact problems like two weeks after my c/s. They told me to stick a sanitary pad, I'd recommend stayfree, inside my underwear to soak up the discharge and blood. Then they gave me keflex, which is like really strong amoxicillin, I had to take 8 of those per day for 4 days. It healed itself right up pretty much. Of course it's a little sensitive still but it's not bleeding or anything...it looks good. I would call your doctor though and see if you could get your appt moved up because you definitely don't want to get a bad infection there.
