Cramping

Ty

So I gave birth about a day ago to my second child and I know that you cramp afterwards but it wasn't this bad with my first. I barely needed pain meds with her but this time it's HORRIBLE. The bleeding has slowed down to less than period bleeding but the cramps are still going strong. How long did you all cramp for and how bad was it? I can't even take a strong dose of medicine bc my husband is sleeping really hard like he doesn't have a care in the world and I'm on baby duty alone 😢. It hurts.
