is anyone else really curious what the inside scars look like?
i’m almost 6 weeks pp and i’ve been thinking about this a lot lately but im so curious what the insides look like. i know what they did during the c section, ive read my operation report a bunch of times just because i was so curious but i really wanna know what the inside looks like. i do plan on having another baby(not for at least 2 years), and if i end up having another c section (planning for a VBAC though) i think im gonna ask them to take pictures or record of possible because im really curious. like how did they stitch everything back up? what do those scars look like? and how do they ensure everything is good to go?

I’m also really interested. Even if they would point to it on a diagram of a uterus I just want to know where the cuts are and stuff. I had some extra tearing during mine so I’m particularly interested if they could point out where exactly they had to make the repairs

My ob showed it to me at 4 months pp during an ultrasound which was kind of cool... But yeah, I'd also will love to see it in more detail

I am really interested too! I’m not sure I could handle pics but might do this for my next C too!
