I'm in really bad pain. My cramps haven't been this bad in awhile. It's two am and I can't sleep. I'm curled up in bed with my phone in the dark but in a bit I may go out to the living room. I had the electric blanket on earlier but I got to warm.

The highlight of my day was a pistachio frappe and a breakfast Sammie. I spent most of my day listening to my audiobook and resting.

I think I had something to say besides whining when I opened up the tab but I don't know what it was. If I'm still up in 3 and a half hours I'll treat my hubby to breakfast.

I hope they ease up soon and let you rest/sleep! I got myself a hot water bottle which doesn't rely on to take to bed with me and (try to) apply it to just specific spots. But, when comparing to what I hear from others, I don't think mine are that bad. Just distracting and annoying.

No such luck on the sleep but now that it's daytime I'm getting sleepy. Good thing I don't have any plans today.

I used to have a hot water bottle but one day Ian put it away not long after I'd hung it up to dry. And unfortunately it grew mold.

I have an electric blanket that's like a giant heating pad.

It's been a year or two since my cramps were this bad. But it's not uncommon for me to spend a day or two in bed from cramps. Hopefully tomorrow it'll settle into a more mild cycle.

Ian's picking up some more Advil Pm so tonight I'll have the pain killer plus sleeping medicine. To hopefully knock me out.

That's to be expected. Sometimes I wonder if my body is mixing up day and night when it comes to sleep and how tired I am.

That sucks on that hot water bottle growing mold! At least you have other options that work as well.

I hope you feel better soon and the cramps don't stay around for too long!

The good thing about lots of responses is setting my icons to random and seeing what I get.

My body is naturally a night owl. But sadly the world is built for morning people.

I should buy another one I just haven't got around to it. And it makes my electric blanket a lot more valuable.

Thanks! I'm feeling mostly better already. I love ibuprofen.

I've tried that a couple of times and then kept vetoing them :D I really need to update my icons though. Which gets me back to having to make some. Maybe I'll do a batch tomorrow. Unless I get to making those birthday cards. Whichever I feel up for :D

Also, yay for feeling better already.

I've got to update my icons still because I still have more than a hundred I can add to the list. I must add more. Good luck on making cards or icons. May the creative energy be with you.

Oof, solidarity on "suddenly very bad cramps" 😣

Unsolicited suggestion: I highly recommend heat and cold packs like these; I've got one that's been helping me immensely. Not sure if you can find one quickly enough to be of use this time around, but maybe for the future?

Cramps are the worst!

Omg those are the most adorable things I've seen! I may buy some for next month! Thanks for the link.
