    Mine still feels tingly and numb and I had my done 13.5 months ago. I don't think the numbness ever goes away as I still feel numb where my scars are from my ovarian cyst (which they cut right over for my c-section) and my appendectomy.

    I hate looking at my scar and touching anything even close to it.

    I had one for 4 years before the twins' section and it always felt weird, like it was numb. It's because the nerve endings in that area have been severed and will not grow back. You get used to it though. ;)
