But the hot and cold flashes, cramps and bleeding after feeds and moderate clotting is all normal stuff and good signs that your body is returning to it's non-pregnant state.
Ok, so the cold shivering and the hot sweating last night sound pretty normal then?

I just gave the birth center a call and the midwife there was really helpful. She told me to feel my belly for my uterus, which I couldn't feel and she said that was good - because it's all the way back in then. And there was no tenderness or pain. She's told me to keep an eye on it overnight, if it dies down then stay at home, if it picks back up or I have another clot then to ring her and head on in to the emergency room.

I guess we'll just sit tight for now. How scary though - the first experiences aren't just related to learning how to fold a nappy.
