[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had used Dr. Reiter, who was a very skilled surgeon, for my first C, but I think he's retired now. I'm curious about the stitching -- for my second C, the doctor used staples. When I expressed surprise to a friend that is a surgeon, she said staples made sense for an incision like that, and she thought it would likely heal better than stitches. I can't remember why she said that, but I'd be curious to hear what other surgeons think of that. Maybe she was just trying to make me feel better! [/quote] I had stitches with my first c/s and then staples with my second, same OB. It’s been a while now, but I think she did say staples would be better, maybe because it was #2? Visually, the second healed the same as the first, which is to say it’s barely noticeable now a few years later. [/quote]
