Hi Melanie,
I was actually looking at your blogsite cause I heard there were pictures of Thanksgiving at Dave and Rita’s on the Graham family’s site, and I thought (and I was right!) you might have theier site on yours’. So I did see them, thanks. But I could not let this one pass! OK I have done child birth AND 2 cortisone shots- both in my elbow. Now a foot is not meaty, but then again, I hardly think the elbow is either. So I am here to say, Yes he is a wimp. End of discussion. And I’m so glad to hear Hailey is feeling better. Love, Cousin Deb

Personally I think men are wimps!! The hubby acts like that when just getting blood drawn, he is such a baby. He always wants me to take him to appointments also, your not the only one…….

Men are hilarious, aren’t they? Worse than childbirth? Is he STILL in pain? Did the initial pain last for hours and hours with no relief? And, then did he have pain “down there” for weeks? Tell him to try squeezing a watermelon out of his pee pee….

Oh, too funny. I haven’t had a cortizone shot, and I’m sure they’re painful…but worse than labour? I don’t know about that…

Well I guess Rick should be glad that he will never have to find out which pain is truly worse.
Now Keith has had kidney stones–they say that is very bad pain. My pastors wife says it is very similar to childbirth pain.

But a shot-seriously?
Pleeeeeease!
Bottom line…guys are wimps when it comes to pain.

Oh God! I have higher tolerance to pain -my OB said so – but when I say that labor and giving birth is painful, that is not an overstatement. Because.it.is.true.

Of course, Rich wouldn’t know. Although this kinda make me giggle – you post, I know what you’re saying. Heheh.

Anyway, I hope Rich feels better. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

I am at a loss for words on this one! A shot being worse then childbirth??? I think not. I have not had both so I guess I can’t really say that. And I will give Rich that fact that usually when you get a shot it is in a meaty part and there isn’t much meaty part to a food….but still. I am pretty sure childbirth pain can make you pass out since I have seen all those movies where it happens (you know if you see it on tv, it must be true!?!).

Anyway….I hope Rich’s foot feels better soon and you don’t have to take him to the doctor and call to check on it (you know, like you do for your actual child)
