Oh god, this is so accurate. Pushing the placenta out after giving birth is so bad because you’re already so sore and finally just finished pushing a whole human out. And then of course you need stool softeners to even poop for the next week, and have to wear a giant adult diaper while you bleed heavily through the wound that is your vagina. Yeah, getting kicked in the balls isn’t even comparable lol.

This isn’t even considering when the OB has to push down, like really push down and massage hard every few minutes/hour and then do a “sweep” to make sure everything gets out because you’re bleeding too much down there and they think not everything got dislodged. Reason why I opted for epidural the second time.
