JESUS FUCK CHRIST. It feels as if my uterus has sprouted small, shattered-glass teeth and is trying to gnaw its way through my stomach in order to burst from under my ribs like some procreative alien parasite. Damnit. OW.

If I'm in this much pain, I should at least be getting decent sex /sometime/ in the cycle to make up for it. I want to file a protest.

*blinks* That was a damned effective image. You're giving my uterus ideas, and it's nowhere near time for my cramps.

chaobell put it in much the same terms, and yes, it is evocative:

(That was the first thing I thought of when I saw this post. Gods help me, I is a geek.)

Oh god. That's it exactly. Thank you for linking that comic. I've got to read it more often. :D

Effective image. I've had cramps that bad exactly once, and I hope to never repeat the process. (Which makes me wonder, suddenly, if getting one's tubes tied stops /that/ whole mess, or if it does nothing but make one infertile and the whole nasty mess continues.)

As I understand it, the only way to stop it for sure is a hysterectomy. Pull out all the plumbing, and the cramps stop.

I'm not ready to go that far, though. :p

If you get pregnant, you get 7-9 months cramp-free!

No, really!

The C-section, er, well -- wasn't worse, overall, than cramps, except when sneezing.

I'm very sorry. I think hot water bottle and massagey-thoughts at you.

And, assuming amethystjade would let me, would offer the decent sex, too.

[pyrephox.livejournal.com]

In lieu of bottle, I took hot bath. Feel a bit better. Thank you. :)

[amethystjade.livejournal.com]

Absolutely. pyrephox deserves good sex.

Meeeeeeeeeep. [hugs] o.o

Seconding the hot water bottle suggestions, and have you tried lying down (on your back or side) and/or sleeping? If possible. >.>
