childbirth or epilation?

[jack daniels]

which is more painful in your opinion?

I've done my arms & talk about sweaty palms in a sharp intake of breath!
I have waxing done but to save some money I do my own legs/arms..........oh the pain!!!!!!!!!!

I'm a wimp! lol

great question!!

epliation. stick with it.. it gets much less painful. I think I cried when I first tried it!

and childbirth gives you an additional 18-25 years of pain ;o)

childbirth is more painful than epilation, however with epilation once you get used to it its okay

Is there anything more painful than childbirth?

[cazzz1975]

I dunno but a gallbladder attack is pretty bad, I would prefer childbirth to one !

[sara3]

I agree.. I had gallstones once.. nightmare :o/

[tiggerblue10]

I have a stomach ulcer which flares up every now and again and the pain goes on all night preventing me from sleeping. Can sometimes go on for several days as well. the pain is 10 times worse than the worst period pain I've ever had which left me doubled up in pain.

I've never experience childbirth but I would imagine giving birth to be more painful.

are you a woman,a man or a mouse?

[tiggerblue10]

You're obviously a rat.

Haven't tried childbirth.

As the one with the big ears said on Men Behaving Badly ...

... it probably "smarts a bit".

Epilation is not too bad.

I've been thinking of getting lasered.

I think some pain can come close to strong contractions but theres little short of sadistic torture or burning alive lol that can come close to actually pushing a baby out.

Ive never screamed out and sobbed during either a gallstone attack or epilation. I wouldnt recommending epilating your armpits either, thats worse than doing your downstairs mixup.

[sara3]

Goodsoulette, you can do it all!

the initial pain is horrific but gets better, but if you don't keep up with it.. every time is like the first time!

[tiggerblue10]

I've waxed and epilated my armpits and downstairs area but the pain goes quickly so I grin and bare it.

[jack daniels]

thank you for all your honest answers, I've tried epilating my under arms once.............never again - I kept nipping the skin and so ended up bleeding a bit & then I still had the other one to do...........boo hoo :-(

[sara3]

bless! you have to do it while the hair is quite short, and try to pull the skin taut to avoid catching it.

and bite on a stick to keep the noise down :o)

sara3 - i agree with your first comment on this thread! lol
