I’m nearly at 6 weeks and still scabby, but I had an uplift too. I was able to shower at about 4 weeks though, once I got the dressings off. I wonder why you can’t shower if it’s scabby? I couldn’t shower for 4 weeks but I had a blister and wasn’t knitted together enough. Once I started showering I have literally healed so quickly and lots of the scabs have come off. Fingers crossed for you both x
