I had two.

First emergency under GA .. very sore, took so long to heal, but not unbearable.
Second "planned" with epidural .. GREAT!! It was not nearly as sore as my first, I was able to drive in less than a week (shh don't tell my OB ) But overall ... I loved it. My scar was a bit more itchy than what I remember with my first one. Also the first one had staples and this one had stiches, and I found the stiches stings WAAAAYYY less when you get up from bed ect.

Goodluck!!
