I would love to hear from someone who has had kidney stones and given birth, and hear which they think was worst. DH gets kidney stones and swears they must be worse than labor and birth.
I had kidney stones 3 times, and I have given birth twice. I would take the kidney stones any day over giving birth! The first time I had the stones, I was in the hospital for a day from it. They gave me morphine and antibiotics. Yes, it hurt like hell, but it was nothing compared to child birth. The birth of my son (my first) was the most painful thing I have ever experienced in my life! I ripped all over and all the way up. He was stuck, and before I passed out from pain, the dr was screaming at the nurses in the room. I really wish they would have just given me a csection! With DD the epidural worked great and it wasn't as bad. Recovery for both of them hurt like hell, and I cannot find anything else to compare it to. I have had a couple of surgeries too and it still doesn't compare.
BUT having a baby is the most wonderful thing, and the pain is all worth it!!! I would do it all over again for my kids. They are the best thing that has ever happened to me, and I do not mind suffering in pain for them!
