    Totally normal to itch, it is the incisions healing. Try using Vitamin E oil to rub into them. It should help with the healing and itch.

    OMG, they do itch. I am on day 5 post op, I continually rub them. I knew that itching meant healing, hope they will be done soon. I look crazy walking around rubbing my stomach all the time.

    Yes...thought I would lose my mind with the itching. As a nurse I knew what it was and it was a GOOD thing...but man! :-)
