I'm 30 weeks pregnant and was banded in Nov 09. I had some internal, right under my largest incision, pain at about 12-14 weeks. It would come and go, my doc said that it was just some of the scar tissue stretching. I haven't had any pain there since so that's good.
As for my port, it gets a little sore from time to time after Braxton hicks but it usually goes away in a couple of days. It does stick out but it's right under my left boob so it's not too obvious and I don't wear super tight shirts.
I also was worried about labor and contractions with it but it's good to read that the other lady didn't have a problem with it then. I might have to have a repeat c-section anyway so it more than likely won't be an issue at all at that point.
Good luck to all of you who are pregnant and lots of hope to all of those trying to conceive. It's a different pregnancy altogether being banded but it's so nice to weight less this time. I am so much more comfortable and I feel like I can breathe better.
