What the hell are you on about...
"a few hours" is either a complete understatement or just not true.
From my first contraction to having Charlotte in my arms, it was 20 hours. And it is the most unbelievable pain you could ever feel in your life. For 20 hours.
Adding to that you have people running around and machines beeping and it's chaos as you hear women next door an hour or so further into it than you and they sound like their head is being sawn off..
And you forget the 40 weeks of migraine, cramp, morning sickness, nausea....
I didn't mean, or say that all births are just a few hours. Some are extremely long, some aren't. But, passing kidney stones can last for days. So, the pain you had when the little duckling (charloette) passed, passing a kidney stone is somewhat more painful, and that can last for days, when giving birth could last a day, or maybe two, but usually ranges in 8-16 hours i believe.
Periods Suck... I have to take medicine to school because the cramps get so terrible i want to die
