It seemed to be better after my 2nd c-section but yeah, my scar was and still is a bit tender. Once in a blue moon something inside will pull or something and it will sting really bad for a few seconds. If i rub the outside of the scar without being gentle it stings a little too. Also i haven't done situps in the past 4 years, every time i exercise the area things get a bit tender there (mind you the reason for me not doing them is more from laziness then being overly sore)
