ow ow ow

It is 4am or maybe nearly 5am. I don’t know. Nor do I care. Why do I not care? Because my uterus is currentlyy either trying to remove itself from my body or learning some yoga moves. I have the worstcramps I’ve had since getting on birthcontrol. I mean, these are curled in a ball, on the verge of tears as my whole lower abdomen feels like it’s spasming around a knife stuck in my gut.

I’m so desperate for relief that I popped four Advil and am now using the really warm bottom of my Laptop as a heating pad.

Take two paracetamol AND three 200mg ibuprofen (you can take these together - don’t bother with 2 ibuprofen, 3 is a must. Don’t take extra paracetamol though!)

This might sound weird, but lying on your back and lifting your legs up one at a time can help relieve cramps as it’s physical exercise. Works for me.

Otherwise dressing gown it and curl up under the duvet.

Hope you feel better soon.
