i mainly have it on the right side, I had my appendix out when i was 12 so along time ago but could this effect the stretching? i remember having slightly more pain this side last pregnancy but wondered if anyone had experience this too or knew anyone that had

I do tend to have more pain on my right than my left where I had my appendix out. I think it's because of the old scar tissue there. Nothing to worry about.

Hi
I had my appendix out 9 years ago and noticed that my right side where the scar is definitley hurt more than the left. It hurt inside too, like a bruised feeling, and hurts if the baby leans on that side. Checked it with the midwife and she says it's normal and to try and keep the scar area well moisturised.
