A member asked:
I had a horizontal laparotomy done in 2012 and now i'm 20 weeks pregnant and experiencing a lot of pain on my scar could it rupture as my baby grows?

Unlikely: Yes that would be possible but it is exceedingly unlikely. It is common to have scar pain during pregnancy - but very uncommon to cause any other issues or problems for the pregnancy. Good luck
