    I bet it was painful, yikes! Both of my labours were quite short too (or at least by the time I realised that they were actual labour and not just the Crohns, they felt short!) but literally the pain is often exactly the same.

    Having a flare up mid PGCE

    Hi all, This is my first post on here so first of all let me say hello! I was diagnosed with Crohn's in 2006 when I was 14. I am now 22 and a mother of a five-year-old. Like most people my age I have spent the majority of my life studying. With study comes stress, and with stress, as we all...
