Not normal. Yellow discharge typically means infection. Can you see the area? Has any of it opened up? Is it red around it or warm to touch?Might do good to go to ER to have it checked.Im a nurse in a home care agency and we have tons of moms post c-section that we see for infection.

I had this...wound was full closed but was still sticky like it was leaking..turned out it was cause the skin in that area was much thinner and taking longer to hear mixed with sweat from over hang
