First, calm down, take a deep breath.
Keep in mind it's noon right now. For a hedgehog that's nocturnal, you might be disturbing her when she should be sleeping most deeply.
i gleaed her paw
I don't even have a clue what you mean by this. Can you try again, explain more? What exactly gives you the idea your hedgie is upset? How are the poops? Some hedgehogs won't go for the food and water until they're alone.

I think you need to up the temperature in her room. Obviously she is getting cold and often. If she doesn't start responding to warmt within 30-45 minutes, get her to the vet.
Just how much watermelon are you giving her. Treats are just that, treats and should be given in moderation.

I agree..You need to up your room temperture, and keep it up.
What temp are you keeping it at?
And I think 6-7 chunks of watermelon at one time is a bit much. Are her poops watery?

70 is too low for hedgehogs. They need their environment to be at the very least 72-73 and some require 76F or higher.
6-7 small pieces is way to much and she certainly could have an upset stomach with that much. 1 small piece or 2 at the most is enough.

Unfortunatly 70 is probably to low. My hedgies had/have to be kept between 75 and 80 degrees. The majority of hedgies that I have read about need to be kept at at least 73 degrees. If your hedgie continues to get cold she can/will get very sick and the possibility of death.
Please keep her warm enough, leave her alone during the day and don't feed her to many treats.
A vet visit may also be in order.
