“I never saw a bruised cesarean scar until I saw my own. I was never warned of infection until I had one.

I never knew that scars can remain red, purple and brown months after the birth, now I know because mine remains like this.

1 in 5 women worldwide give birth via cesarean section so why are we so hidden away by the aftermath? By what our bodies look like while they are healing?

I still only see perfectly healed scars. A thin line, barely visible, as if no surgery happened at all. But this isn’t the case for many mothers, myself included.

Now 3 months postpartum my scar is still healing, still red and purple, still very visible, and this is completely normal.

But because we don’t see this more publicly, because this isn’t normalized, we can often feel like the only ones.

So know you are not alone.

I too have a visible scar, I too had a difficult recovery and I too am learning to embrace my body as it is now”
