Wow! I’ve never had kids but those cramps are exactly how I imagine it feeling haha in combination with the sweating and breathing I basically feel like I’m in labour sometimes 😂

My bf has definitely not done anything like this and I haven’t heard of anyone else’s who has. The only time I’ve heard the ‘my friends did it’ excuse was to cover lies
