I'd actually heard that bleeding was worse with a c/s. Not really sure why. But mine was REALLY heavy for a while as I said in another thread Sarah. It's not very nice is it.

As for the numb spots....I still have those!! An entire section above the scar is completely numb. I reckon you probably have a few ingrown hairs as well. Unfortunately there wasn't time for them to do a quick shave with me and I had this horrid tape stuff stuck over the top of the hair etc.....thank god the incision wasn't any lower LOL. I didn't have staples at all, just the internal stitches and the tape over the top for 2w.
