It's complete agony for me for about 36 hours after it starts, then it's usually pretty dang fine. Of Course, last time, I had it way worse than usual, but generally it's not bad, just annoying after the first 36 hours.

Last time I went through my stash of pads in the first 3 days though, so that sucked. Had to run out and just buy a pack of disposable ones because I had nothing left

I also have been told I have an extremely high pain tolerance though, so do with that what you will.

I have no idea if my pain tolerance is high or not
Sometimes it seems to be... but other times people think I'm over reacting so it's hard to say

I would say I have a pretty high pain tolerance.

Hot water bottle is a lifesaver for me
With or without pain killers!
I never used a heat pad or anything electrical. Just hot water bottles, a pain to keep refilling but great non the less.
I even have one with a strap so you can walk around and do jobs with it in place! Highly reccomend

I’ve never tried a hot water bottle before, even though most time I only have light cramps on the first day, and take extra strength acetaminophen before it gets worse. I probably should be eating more before taking it tho . I’ve heard that if the hot water bottle is too hot, that after prolonged use you can get stretch mark/red scar looking things on your stomach

Dang :/ I was going to try to play an old website based game (Leporidae) I used to play a few years ago in early middle school, but now apparently there's a better version 2, but it's invite only.

I know exactly what you mean and I'm guilty, I make the hot water bottle as hot as I safely can when the pain is at its worst. Any marks go away pretty fast though, once the heat is removed.
It burns a little but it distracts from the pain. I don't make them too hot because I heard its not safe to, the bottle is only so strong. You should *always* add some cold water to it so that it isn't boiling hot.
But if you make it to a pleasant warm temp, it shouldnt leave marks or anything like that- its nice and comfy.

I truly can't imagine life without hot water bottles... even just on a cold night, they're so lovely to cuddle!
