Today after taking a shower I decided to peel the strips of tape off my C-section incision (it was itching) and when I got to the last piece I noticed a small worm stuck to it. The worm was about a quarter of an inch long and yellowish and kind of shiny, like a maggot, and it totally grossed me out. I called my doctor to ask if it's normal to have worms around that area, post-C-section, and he said yes, in some cases it's quite normal* and I shouldn't worry. He said if I notice any eggs I can just spoon them onto toast for a high-protein treat.
Yummy!
