Guest guest Posted July 10, 2000 Report Share Posted July 10, 2000 > I planned an early night and so went to bed at 9.30pm, at 10 Kitty > started *screaming* - she was as hot as a radiator, Oh sounds like a rough time. Steffi also had a temp last night and complained of tummy ache (I think she just needed a poo, actually!) but she slept well (just the usual climb into our bed during the night). Glad to hear things are better this morning. Re pain - yes I agree. Although don't forget it's not so long since babies weren't picked up if they cried! I think firm cuddles are more helpful too - in labour anyone who touched me lightly nearly got thumped! I read somewhere (on this list probably!) that light touches are perceived as more threatening. -- Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitty has been up and down all day - I thought she was OK this morning, but she woke up from her lunchtime nap screaming and hot again - just hoping that she sleeps tonight! -- Dick, SAHM to (7/4/97) and Kitty (22/7/99) and wife of (26/9/66) Newsletter Editor, Advertising manager MSLC Rep - Alton, Bordon and District See pictures of us all at: http://albums.photopoint.com/j/AlbumList?u=848605 Password: Wisley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
