Hi (((Prouds)))



If you are finding your stitches bothersome you could give your doctor a call. Some women do a little trimming to prevent poking since the stitches sticking out are not going to dissolve. But do call your doctor before attempting this. Take care!

Thanks for the info. I went ahead and used the swelly belly band.
But I wrapped it in plastic i didn't like feeling wet all the time.

My stitches I left alone and the band didn't get penetrated by the stitches.
