Nipple stimulation - is it supposed to hurt?

I have decreed that tomorrow will be the day this baby is born Grin so DH and I will be on an aggressive induction plan!

Thought we'd begin tonight, doing nipple stimulation and a bit of jiggy, but I couldn't get to the jiggy part as the nipple stim made my uterus hurt so much. Is that normal?

I'm finding things really painful at night too, I just can't get comfortable as my uterus aches, feels like period pains. Fed up now and want the baby to come. Am also pissed off as I have been reading Childbirth Without Fear and Ina May etc. who are all very convincing that if you just relax things aren't painful, fear=tension=pain and all that, but if I am in so much pain from getting 'intimate' with my husband, or just even lying down I'm starting to think the whole thing is a crock of shit.

This is no.2 so I do know to some extent what I am letting myself in for, but I just hoped things would be a bit better this time.

Sorry, tired, fed up rambling!
