did anyone else get a rash after c/s? UPDATE
I'm 2 weeks pp and the feeling in my belly is starting to come back. For the past day or so.....it was itchy as anything and I chalked it up to nerve-endings getting the feeling back. Now it looks all red and blotchy and still itches like crazy. Is this normal or something not c/s related????
UPDATE So I'm having an allergic reaction to amoxicillin, which I started taking last week due to a sinus infection
My DS is 2 weeks old......and I'm the mess!!!! He's doing great!!! Thank God I stopped BFing when I got sick. I don't even want to imagine what would've happened to him during an allergic reaction.

I think it's normal. Are you still cleaning it with the water bottle that the hospital gave you? Just try to keep it dry & clean. Have they taken out the staples? I used to put Blamex on mine when it rashed. Call your OB & ask.

Yeah the staples are out. They told me not to wash the area directly....just to let the soap and water from the shower run over it from washing the area above. It's not the incision that itches, it's my belly area above the incision.
eta: I was scratching like crazy last night and then scratched my upper arm and now I have a rash there too. I'm so scared I'm going to give this rash to the baby.

Yes, my belly itched and I got a rash from where they had that belt/support thing on to hold the dressing in place. I put aloe on it in the hospital and it was pretty much gone a few days after I got home.
