Does anything...and I mean anything at all hurt more than child birth?

I've never been in more pain in my life, but its a different pain.
Its not a pain that you cry over I think coz you have to concentrate so hard on it.
Its indescribeable.
Unfortunetly though,as Westy said, the only way possible to know how it feels is to experience it your self.
It can be scary, but you just have to remember what your body is doing. Its doing what its meant to.
Its not as scary once you are there. Don't get too hung up thinking about it.

Ruptured appendix hurts more I reccon. Heaps more!

"They" say that there is nothing more painful than childbirth and kidney stones . But I agree with the others - childbirth is good pain with a purpose and you can manage it because you know what you are working towards. Kidney stones would be so different!

Make sure you look into relaxation & breathing techniques, this made a MASSIVE amount of difference in the pain I felt between labour 1 & 2.

If the old wives tale is true then Gall Stones are supposed to be the only thing worse. I think that breaking a bone is pretty darn close to labour though.

Nope i havent.. Though after my episiotomy i had a large skin tag removed WITHOUT a local and i would have to say that came pretty close to being as painful as child birth!
