[quote=Anonymous]OP, I get your stress but I think you need to let it go.  I have a scar smack dab in the middle of my face.  To me, it's super noticeable and terrible though others claim it's not bad (I got it as a child from a traumatic and gory accident and it has significantly faded but it's still there and I always wonder if others are lying about the scar's prominence to make me feel better).  My point is that I totally sympathize with what you went through and appear to still be going through.

BUT, your son might not care at all about it, and that would be more likely if you don't obsess over it.  I certainly wouldn't let it stop me from having another child.  Please try to not make it a big thing with your son and try not to think of it as a problem that is your "fault."  Perhaps you would benefit from some therapy to deal with your issues with your appearance.  I really do know that facial marks can be very upsetting and it seems like you really have trouble dealing with yours, but there is no benefit to anyone feeling guilty about it or letting it rule your life.
