am I being over dramatic?

Question

Is it bad that the slightest cramps cause me to be in pain? I just don't like feelings cramps at all, not even minor ones.

Answer

Little bit. Cramps are cramps. We all get them, some worse than others. But if you know they're not that bad then just try to ignore them. Pop an aspirin if you have to. But I've been able to stand up straight and talk for 5 minutes with a customer while my uterus was tearing itself apart - one of the worst cramps of my life - without even wincing (Once the customer was gone I went to the private bathroom and cried for a few minutes, but I made it through the conversation like a champ).

Answer

"Minor" cramps could actually be really bad cramps. Maybe you just have terrible cramps. Are you on birth control? That can help a lot.

Answer

I've always had painful cramps and manage through them. There's only been one instance where I was literally only relieved of pain in fetal position. But if you know they aren't that bad then stop acting like it
