ok - this is weird but after having my dd 2 years ago I remember sitting awake in the middle of the night (trying to stop her screaming for food) on the postnatal ward and feeling a really strong urge to lick her head clean (as all covered in blood etc. Yuck). Was totally bizarre but really really strong instinctive feeling. Has anyone else had an equally weird thing happen to them?
Am just curious as due to have no.2 soon and wonder whether same will happen!
