How terrible are your cramps?

Question

Answer

They were horrible before I had my son, now they're more annoying than anything

Answer

Necessary PSA: if your cramps keep you from doing your normal routine (or if you only barely manage that normal routine because you're too stubborn to give in), go to a doctor. There are things you need to be tested for. And if the doctor says, "oh, that's just your life because you're a woman and you have to deal with that." Then go to another doctor.

A doctor I had a few years ago sent me home with no meds, no tests every time for a full year. She told me my pain was normal when I knew it wasn't. When I saw anther doctor, he sent me to the ER. I'm fine now, but I wouldn't be if I had let my first doctor tell me how to treat my body.

Answer

It depends with every period. Usually horrible though.

Answer

First two days I get horrible back pain where it feels like people are dropping flaming bricks on my back dropped from the Empire State Building.  And cramps sometimes
