Post-C-Section Air Pockets: What You Need to Know

Question
Is it possible to have an air pocket trapped after a c-section?

Answer
The abdomen is closed in layers after a cesarean section and, although there is always air in the abdomen, it is not sequestered (like air in your intestine), but will dissipate and cause no problems. There are no air pockets in your abdomen because there is no way for it to form.
