As a registered nurse and a student midwife, I have been opportuned to be with mothers throughout labour. So many things go through my head whenever I see these women in labour e.g. How will men react in labour, if we canbe pregnant? Are these women exargerating this labour pains?(pls forgive my thoughts, because, before you know it, they're pregnant again!) , is tooth ache more painful?

Now, the last question is my major concern! Nairalanders, from your experience, which do you think is more painful? Please, those that have encountered any of the above should enlighten us.

For me the one I have experienced is the hell on earth paniful whitlow ooooooh!!! (Very painful)^2, when you 've got that, the affected part gets a heart beat, mostly the thumb and the big toe, I got one on my big toe, can't even sleep at night 'cause of the pain and I became restless. Before I normally see it as just one of those body malfunctions until i got one, now i tremble whenever i here whitlow!!
