Anyone w/ a prior c-s have staples? My first was w/o staples & the healing/scarring went well. This practice I'm w/ now says they like to staple (I know bec. it is faster for the OB & it pisses me off). [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

I hate this OB practice. I only have a couple of weeks, so I'll bite the bullet. Aren't the staples uncomfortable? [ Reply | More ]

I had staples. I had zero issues healing and my scar is barely visible. I was happy they choose the quicker route. [ Reply | More ]
