    Mine is now a thin pinkish line and parts are fading to white. I only have the one as the OB managed to cut across the first scar with DD2 although she did add a bit at the end.

    I can't remember what mine looked like when pregnant - after about 20 weeks I couldn't see it anyway so it didnt matter

    Can't remember how long it took, but mine pretty much faded away completely, was just a very thin & faint line. But with being pg again, it's gone back to being pink, which my OB says is normal during pg (just like other things like moles can darken).

    Mine is a thin white line (despite being a very bad c/s & major infection afterwards) but Luke is almost 12yrs so can't really remember when it went from pink to white... sorry

    It hasn't seemed to have changed at all this pregnancy - although being almost 23 weeks along, I have to look in the mirror now to see it at all

    The only odd thing I have encountered (that hasn't been as issue until I got pregnant & grew) was some ingrown hairs along the bottom of the scar.
    Not painful at all but definately lumps I could feel.

    That happened when I was about 12 weeks, but haven't had any for a while now.
    Maybe a random thing for just me and nothing to do with your original question, but its the only thing I've noticed to be a little weird with the scar & this pregnancy.

    Mine has gone and is now just a thin shinny line - I has never been raised at all from about 6 months onwards. I cant even feel where mine was!

    I do wonder what it will feel and look like when Im pg again!
