I'm normally really healthy, fit person, the ONLY thing that ever flattens me is my period. It's 2-3 days every three weeks when I can't work, can't think, can't walk, can't do anything but scream/moan, question my existence,try to stay in the hottest of baths and take as much codeine and paracetamol as I legally can. (Have tried a number of things suggested in this community and elsewhere - haven't got endo, have a bad reaction to the synthetic hormones in the pill, no joy from homeopathic approaches/wheatfree diet etc.)
Anyway... now I'm 33 weeks pregnant and hoping for a homebirth and if the pain is that much worse than my period pain I honestly don't know how I will get through it. Any pain, and I do mean ANY kind of pain that is different or lesser than that I know can handle.
