I had a c-section on the 2nd of July, and I'm still having sharp pains aolong the incision, but only on the left side... I've also noticed that sometimes when I sit up or bend around (like I'm trying to look behind me) I feel something pop, feels like a baby kicking?? No I am not pregnant, but was just wondering if this is normal or if anyone else has experienced it?? If not then I guess I might wanna call the Dr.. It would kinda suck if they left something in me huh???

I had that, too. I could've sworn they left something in me, like a stitch or a staple or some kind of instrument in me. It wasn't debilitating pain, but annoying. Mine was on the right side. After a few months, it eventually went away.
Just remember, you've had major surgery, and it'll take time for everything inside you to get squared away.

I experienced something similar to that. It lasted probably about 6 months after each of my c-sections.
It bothered me most if I coughed or sneezed, but sometimes just happened out of the blue. It's been 8 years since my last c-section and it hasn't bothered me for a very long time. I think it's because it takes longer for the internal incision to heal because the slightest movement can aggravate it.

I wonder if you could have some sort of a hernia along the incision. Be sure to go to the Dr. because you could get in alot of trouble if that is the case and part of your bowel sticks out there and gets clamped off kind of.

I had a c-section and later felt some pains like what you're talking about. It took a few months but they did eventually go away. They're cutting through major muscle when they do c-sections and sometimes it just takes your body a while to completely heal and go back to normal.

okay sug you need to get to a doctor, i have had 2 csections and my last one a few months after was still very painful and my right side of the inscion hurt and had a hard knot when i pressed on it, well they did a laperscopy (putting a camera through the belly button) and found that my uteras was a huge gray mass takin over my organs, so i beg you to go to the doctor, better safe then sorry

I had a c section, and I'm sure that I wasn't feeling any pain from the incision 3 months later -- definitely see your doctor.
And yes, that would suck!

I have had 2 csections . i had a harder recovery from the first one-- turns out i was allergic to the general anesthesia. But even so , i didnt have any pains like that so long afterward. i hope it isnt anything serious but i would call the dr.

You had major surgery, it may take awhile to be okay. Call the doctor?
