How long was ur c-section scar purple?!

steph1505 · Dec 29th, 2009, 17:31 PM

I had a c section over 4 months ago and my scar is as purple as it was the day I came out of hospital!!

Is this normal?! When can I expect it to fade?! x x x

It's been 2 1/2 months and mine is still purple, but it is a very thin line.

Mine is still purple 6.5 months on.... ans it doesn't look like it's going to fade any time soon.

Mine is still pink (not purple anymore) 16 months later.

Mine is still purple but has faded a bit! My stretchies are still purple too so I assume it will take a while to all fade.

Mine is pinky-white mostly but still grey-purple where it reopened. Almost 10 months post partum.
