I just (this morning) had a cover up tattoo on the back of my neck. The pain was insane. I honestly thought I’d pass out.

That is now the most pain I’ve been in.

Normally I’m very brave and do well with being tattooed. Not today.

Childbirth - baby was side ways and I had back to back contractions with barely a break. No pain relief (well apart from gas and air which did nothing). Genuinely thought I was dying. I couldn’t believe I was still conscious and able to be in that much pain.
