So I’ve been suffering with hot flashes for about a year. It occurred to me at some point that hot flashes remind me of contractions. My youngest is now 21 years old, but I don’t think we forget that particular sensation. Hot flashes don’t have the pain of a contraction but I remember distinctly the feeling that a contraction was coming, while not actually there yet. I now get that same feeling when a hot flash is coming. Such an odd sensation. What a bummer that we don’t get the same reward lol. Although at my current age I’m pretty sure a newborn would not be a good thing.
Ok Annette - Your post made me giggle - thanks for that! 🤗
Good point, I hadn’t thought of that but you’re right !!
very thankful for the no pain part though!!
