at the end of october, my bf had a kidney stone. apparently it wasnt his 1st either. he is older than i am, im only 21. i remember i could hear him scream when he passed it. they made him piss into a strainer that fit on the toilet. when he finally did pass it, after seeing it & how big it was, i cant believe a man could pass something so big and hard through his penis, no wonder he screamed when it came out. anyways, now that i recently found out that im pregnant. ive heard some people say that passing a kidney stone for a man is like childbirth. my bf said that i should prepare for a lot of pain & that i may want to hurt him in the delivery room, he said he based this off his ex-wife when she had their kids. he said its not meant to scare me, but is telling me the truth based off his experiences. He said the only good thing is that i'll be able to get a lot of pain reduction whereas with his stone, he had to stand over the toilet & aim his penis for a strainer!

I have had kidney stones for 13 years, and I had a baby recently. I also had stones during my pregnancy and had to have a stent. I have to say that the stones are very painful...constant pain until the stone moves or passes. With a stone, they can give you effective pain medication. With labor, the pain management is limited, but the pain comes in waves. You get a brief rest in between to prepare for the next contraction. I thought I could handle labor easy because of all of the kidney problems and surgeries I have had. Nope, I FREAKED out until I got the epidural. With that said, I'd take labor because once I had my baby, it was over and I had a beautiful baby girl who was all mine.

Well although I don't know what it's like to pass a kidney stone through a penis, I can tell you that childbirth is painful for a day, but you forget about it the next day when you are holding your child in your arms. If it didn't forget the pain never have a second child. I have no doubt that men could endure the pain of child birth especially if they are in shape. In fact the more fit your stomach muscles the easier it is to deliver. So it may have more to do with our fit you are and less to do with your gender.

I think the stone would be much more painful. I have had four kids with no pain medication and I did not have severe pain. I have had leg cramps, menstral cramps, hunger pains, and arthritis that hurt worse. I used the Bradley method which uses total relaxation to prevent uterine cramps. That way, the only pain is the cervix stretching.

I couldn't just sit around and do nothing like my doctors suggested.
They didn't want me to do anything or to take herbs or herbal remedies, but I had to try something - they just wanted me to do dialysis!
This program allowed me to take control of my health. I went from Stage 4 to Stage 3 kidney disease.
It was easy to do and my BUN, creatinine and anemia are all in better ranges.

I had kidney stones during my last trimester, and had to have a surgical stent implant. It was terribly painful. However, childbirth is a lot more painful and you will be in pain.
Good luck.
