Transcript

Oh, hi baby, you're already in bed, well it's bed time for me too. Have you been there for long? I didn't notice you crawling in.

You're not feeling too great, what's up? Oh, you're starting your period. Feeling a bit uncomfortable, maybe some cramps? Is there anything I can get you? A hot water bottle or something to drink, maybe a blanket, some chocolate, anything you want? No, not right now, maybe later.

I'll get it later, I promise, if you want it. Poor baby. Let me get in bed with you.

Yeah, just let me. There we go. Hey baby, it's okay.

You're gonna get through this. And I'll help you, I can do a little bit of extra, if you want, or not, whatever suits you best, but I'm here for you, I'm here to support you. Now, how about you, let me just hold your tummy, ever so gently, I'm not gonna put any pressure on it, I'll just place you right here, and, can you feel that?

Is it upsetting you, or is it okay? Yeah, I'll make sure to not do it too hard, I promise. It's just, I want you to feel me, I want to share your pain, let's imagine that you're sending some of it over to me, we can split it 50-50.

I'll take away some of your pain and just send it through my fingers, right here, past my wrist, and up my forearm, and through the rest of my body, just send it all away. You don't need that pain, I can take it for you. It's only fair, isn't it? But it's okay, baby.

I know you're feeling bad, but you're just as beautiful as you always are, you're just as lovely, and your body feels just as nice and soft and warm, mm-hmm, nothing's changed except that maybe you're in pain and you're not feeling too great, well, I can help out with the things that maybe you don't want to do, I'll cook for us, you don't need to get up and do all those boring chores, not that cooking is boring, I love cooking, especially for you, I can even feed you in bed if you'd like, really pamper you, like how you deserve. So, please don't feel dirty, or like you're just being lazy, or whatever intrusive thoughts might come up, you know I love you, you know I think you're beautiful, and before you know it, it'll be over, then you feel energetic and back to normal again, mm-hmm, but right now, just focus on my hand and your tummy, just let me feel you, let me feel your pain and that uncomfortableness, and give that to me, let me take it away from you, just imagine that, imagine sending it off in waves, like your body's sending shivers through your skin, and those shivers focus on your tummy, and then you give that pain to me, I wish I could take it off you, I really do, you don't deserve to feel bad like this, but while you are, I'll be here, I'll support you, always, you know that, now, I guess I'm your hot water bottle, you know my hands are always warm, they're warm for you, it's so that I can make you feel better, maybe my hands can heal you even, isn't that a nice thought? Yeah, just let me be here with you, and just feel your skin stroke you a little bit, not too erratically and not too wildly, just slow, predictable, and close, and light, feel me circle around with my flat hand around your tummy, circling around your belly button, sending you some shivers on your skin maybe, that's it baby, try to let go a little bit, let me just cuddle with you, let me make you feel better.

I wish I could put you to sleep like this, just stroking your skin, make you unconscious so you don't have to feel the pain, so you can just skip it, I know you've got things to do, but I wish I could just turn it off for you, so for now let me just have a moment with you, are you feeling more sleepy baby? You'll have to sleep at some point, let's try to fall asleep together, okay? I've got you, I'll be here, I'll warm you up, I'll be your hot water bottle wherever you want, I promise, that's it, get comfortable and whatever you need, whenever you need it, even if I'm asleep, you just tell me, okay?

Good night, sweetheart.
