Hi don t know if I m at the right place to ask but thought I would give it a go anyway.. About 2 months ago I got my appendix removed but they couldn t do the small keyhole surgery they had to cut me right down the middle of my stomach and now found out I m about 6 weeks pregnant.. Just wanted to know if my scar would be fully healed enough I m worried about it when I get bigger .. And also do you think I ll have to have a c section because of it .. A few people have told me I might have too?
His per your query, i came to know that you have undergone Appendectomy surgery, by lower midline incision and not by Laparoscopy. As it was done 2 months ago, it might have healed completely by now. The abdominal wall gets stretched and enlarged in the later weeks of pregnancy only. As you are 6 weeks pregnant, there is a lot of time and by that time your scar will create no problem. It also not compulsory for you to go for C section. You can try for normal delivery too. I have done surgery of Appendectomy during pregnancy also and most of them had normal deliveries. So, nothing to worry. Be relaxed. Wish you good health
