Since I got my IUD, I’ve been having cramps before my period arrives. I never really used to have cramps before. But this time the cramps came straight from Muspelheim. It feels like Surtr himself stabbed me with his sword. They’ve never been this bad, and my uterus has never been this swollen. The pain has increased from a nuisance to really bad, and the swelling is quite noticeable.
Not even the day after giving birth to Lilith by C-section was close to this bad. The only comparison I can make to previous experiences, was the night after my first back surgery, when I had 5 doses of Morphine, and it still didn’t take. I’m walking around bent over when I do walk. Laughing hurts, sneezing hurts, coughing hurts, and I have a cold!
Since this is a sudden, and unexpected change, I’m calling my GP tomorrow. If nothing else, the IUD may have moved. As for the Big Fat Cat, it wasn’t for chasing any mice that might be in our house. It was for placing on my belly, to sooth the pain.
Update January 23: I called the doctor’s office today, and I’ve got an appointment for Wednesday, to check things out. And while we’re on the subject of cats, here are a few I drew once:

Your big fat cat looks just like my lovely cat Mimi. She lazes in spots all over the house following the sun around. At night, or as soon as I sit down really she plonks herself on my lap. She is a big fat cat because she gets no exercise! But she is so cuddly
She sounds lovely. I’ve had a total of 7 cats myself, before moving in with my husband. All the adults were big (although not fat), with the exception of the first one, and the one which was a dwarf. Unfortunately I can’t have cats anyomore, because hubs has a problem with the scratches getting infected. We’re also not home enough to be responsible pet owners. Guess I have to get myself a water bottle 🙂
