Hi all, I hope your all feeling ok!!!

I was just looking for you opinions or advice!!!

I had a laparoscopy just over a year now and I am now 23 weeks pregnant. My belly button is where they cut through with the laparoscopy and the scar is very dark brown, the past few days I have had a bruise come up around my belly button too. Would u put this down to the scar still healing? Or would u be worried? X

A bruise is bleeding under the skin, so I definitely would get this looked at by your doctor. Maybe the incision is getting disrupted from the inside as your uterus is pushing on it...might be nothing serious but worth getting checked!
