    My cramps were the same way, got worse after a child. Its been 10 years and i still have killer, crippling me for the first few day type cramps. What I do to help make it tolerable, single mom cant miss work, I take 2 advil migraine (works the fastest) or 3 extra strength Advil at the first sign of cramps and then as soon as i feel them returning i take more and i do this for the first 3 days of my period. I also soak in a hut tub frequently to help ease up the pain.

    Aleve is the best thing you can get for cramping without an RX. That's what my Dr. used to prescribe me before it became over the counter. Good Luck!

    This is normal. Your uterus is still shedding. Contact your OBGYN or (my favorite) Pharmacist and she/he will tell you what is okay to take without causing extra bleeding.
