Popped C-section Stitches Risk Next Time? Posted: 10-02-07 10:57am
I had a c-section a month ago and i popped
five stitches in the very middle and it
left a bit of a hole for two weeks,its
healed over now but just wondering if next
time i get pregnant will there be a chance
of it just tearing open? i'm really
freaking out because no one will give me a
straight answer all i'm getting is "we'll
have to wait and see"

I doubt it. It only 'popped' open because
it hadn't healed over properly - how long
had it been since the staples had come out
when it opened up?
Your doctor won't give you a straight
answer on if it will happen again? If it
is HEALED, it more than likely won't
happen again.

Honestly thats the truth though its your
body and everyones body is different so
you will have to wait and see. chances are
years later after the scar and skin has
grown over it wont happen.
