Can you feel your band?


Recommended Posts

I asked this question earlier this week but I didnt get much of a response. I know almost everyone can feel their port but what about your band? And if you can feel your band can you please tell me the location. Thanks, Nebs Mom

Oh I so didn't get that the first time you asked...I thought you were talking about the port. I can't feel the band now but I'm sitting up (there is all this jiggly stuff in the way :angry: ) but I will try and see if I can feel it when I lie down to go to sleep tonight.

Ok I think I can feel it. There is something hard a ways underneath my large incision. It is 2 inches west and north of my bellybutton. At first I thought it might be just scar tissue but it is a ways below the incision and when I checked my c-section incision(s) there is nothing like that there. My port is way over west (probably almost 5 inches from my large incision) so I am sure I am not mixing up the two.

Scars are looking better today, scabs are falling off and the scars left behind are actually quite tiny. I'll be happy when the bruising goes away, I still look like I went to Tijuana and got into a street fight whereupon I was stabbed 5 times.

Musiclover your directions crack me up!! I can feel mine just a little to the left and 2 finger widths under my port site. Its definitly the band. I carry all my weight in my butt so my stomach is fairly flat. Good thing they dont put a band in your butt Id NEVER feel it! I mashed on Kellys stomach and I can feel hers too. My glue is all washed off and my scars are looking great. My port is still tender when I do certain things but I think Im healing very well! I hope youre back to 100% after this weekend. That must have been aweful. Im starting on my treatmill tomorrow and cant wait. Im sitting at 202 now and REALLY want the 199 so Im going to brisk walk and see if I can get there in the next 2 weeks! Have a great day. Nebs Mom
