1week post c section

Hey mamas,I would like to now how do you know your scar is getting infected.I went to my midwife appointment on Thursday and she’s said it looks great but today I’ve been seeing a brownish fluid on my knicker where the scar is so it’s leaking?

Has this ever happened to anyone?

C-section wounds can break down very quickly so if there’s any discharge from it, get it checked

Oh yes I’m just over three weeks out from my emergency c section with an infected incision happening about a week post opArea was red, warm to touch, very firm going up towards stomach, there was the start of a pus pocket which ended up popping and draining for days, and I had a fever Better to get checked again

You’d have to speak with your provider on that

Thankyou very much,I don’t have a fever and I’m not in pain it’s a little firm only near the scar but some parts.does this still sound like an infection?
