why and how O.O??!!!

How come some c section incisions re open?? How does that even happen? What are the chances of it happening?! Lol im a bit paranoid I didn't know that was possible! Im in my second week of healing from my c section.. They said they stapled me from the inside and that they would dissolve on there own.

It depends if the doctor single or double stitched your uterus shut, also if your pushing your body too hard and too fast it'll re open. I had a single stitch on my uterus (not happy about it but I didn't think to tell the doc to double stitch me) and I was surgically glued shut on the outside, never re opened on me though.

Any incision can reopen once the staples or stitches are removed (or dissolve) if your incision didn't heal properly.
