C-section help

No judgement please. A week PP of a c-section, I dab off my incision site during the day every time I use the bathroom just so I can make sure it’s dry. I can’t get a good look at it because it’s literally right where my belly hangs on top of it so I just sort of trust by how it feels when I touch it to dry it off. I’ve been noticing this when I dab it off and I just want to make sure it’s normal, I don’t want to doctor google and I can’t find my packet of information. It doesn’t hurt, it’s a little red but like I said I’m only a week PP so I expect some redness. I just want to make sure if anyone sees and recognizes this as a start of an infection or if I’m just being paranoid. Thanks in advance.
