Laparoscopy Scars - Page 2

I had my lap 18 months ago and the scars are fine. I use Bio Oil for stretch marks so I reckon that may have helped.

I didn't have a problem with my lap scar in my last pregnancy but it did become raised, as it has done this time.

I don't have any discomfort from my laperoscopy scars but they have stretched. My belly button area is such a mess! I don't know if that's because I was really skinny before I was pregnant so everything's stretched a lot or because I only had my laperoscopy a few months before I got my bfp! My tattoos on my stomach look fine though, just bigger!

my lap scars are from 2007 and are very raised, as doc decided to use horse stitches not others silly man! But really itching right now, an tbh rather sore! x

My lap scars dont itch or anything but i can see how far down my bellybutton they went, which is quite far! I kinda forgot about these & I had to go hunting for the one on my pubic line.

Iv come over from TTC and saw this thread.

I have a lapo done Nov 2008, I have a large scar going verticaly round my belly button (as I had to be opened up as they peacred my stomach), 2 dots below my belly button and a dot higher up.

Im glad I read this post as I was worried it may stretch when pregnat, so happy now!!

Thanks for all the comments.

I managed to scratch my bellybutton last night right next to one of the scars so a little tender at the moment.
We had a consultant appointment today (considered high risk because of the IVF) and he didn't think they would be a problem.
When I've been itchy I've just slathered on the E45 so my belly is really soft!
