    OH thinks he's got it bad because I'm out of action for a week and moan about belly ache, he has no idea what we have to go through!

    I know!! I think period pain gets trivialised because we know what's causing it and it's not going to kill us, but if a man got that kind of pain in their stomach, they'd go straight to casualty thinking something had ruptured or something, I don't think they realise quite how painful it is! :mad: :o

    And lol at the 'out of action' thing, when I refuse him, OH's always like "What? STILL?!" :rolleyes:

    I think I must be in the minority, none of my boyfriends have ever considered it an 'out of action' time! Although activities in the shower do become more popular than the traditional locations!

    It's me more than them I have to say! Not so much the 'grossness' factor, but I don't think my poor insides could take it at that time!

    LOL, I don't have the balance for such pursuits! :rolleyes:

    OH made me laugh last night; I was getting a major cramp and whinging so he ran around and got me a glass of milk, some painkillers and a bourbon biscuit! Bless him, I've finally got him trained!
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!
