That's it really. I have a keloid scar from my EMCS 18months ago. Scar is ridged, red and tender/sore to touch. At the time it was very neatly done and it's only developed this heavy scarring as it's healed. I'm now 33 weeks pregnant and trying to decide whether to have a VBAC or ELCS. One of my concerns is that if I have a cut or tear during a VBAC i might have a similar scar in my perineum. A sore keloid scar in my abdomen doesn't cause me any real bother, but in my fanjo... well that would be distressing to say the least. So, does anyone have any experience of this or advice to offer?

Keloid scar from c-section? Had a VBAC with cut or tear? How does the scarring compare?
