It is perfectly normal to have that numb nothing sensation between your belly button and the scar, if not all the way down to the top of your vagina below the scar.
They have just cut through all your nerves and muscel tissue, severing EVERYTHING. This will take years to come back fully.
However, even though it feels weird, the more you touch it and stimulate the nerves, the more they will grow. On average your nerves grow about 2mm a year (from memory) so it will take a long time, but stimulaation with help encourage them to grow, b oth from the top down adn the bottom up.
A c/s can be a traumatic experience, mine was an emergency c/s and not a pleasant experience either Own that scar hun, it is the emblem of your right of passage, and that of your son also. Be proud of that scar! It took me a long time to be proud of mine, but I am, because I am proud I brought my daughter safely into this world, albeit by a mode I wasn't happpy wit at the time.
The sensation in your belly will come back, keep rubbing and stroking the area and encourage the new nerve growth, and as the muscle kntis and heals so too will the nerves.
