Chapter 832: Mother's Greatness (22)

"Okay, I see...... But shouldn't you give me more advice like you did today, this investment is a bit big, I'm afraid I'll mess up. Yulia's self-confidence only boosted for a few seconds, and then it began to slip again.

"Well, don't worry, I won't watch if you want to mess up, don't worry, I'll keep an eye on it. "Hong Tao can't encourage Yulia anymore, everything that should be said has been said, it's useless to just say it, let her do it by herself for a while, as long as she supervises herself tightly, don't let her make any big mistakes, self-confidence This thing will come with the work performance, maybe I will have to cool her down when the time comes.

Three days before her due date, Hong Tao persuaded Ah Shan to be admitted to the Presbyterian Hospital in New York, and she didn't want to go to the hospital anymore because she didn't have Hong Tao's meticulous care when she got to the hospital. However, for her safety, Hong Tao still insisted on letting her live in, the due date is not particularly reliable, in case one day it is suddenly advanced, Hong Tao is not very familiar with the road conditions in New York, and I am afraid that it will not be delayed at all by relying on an ambulance to pick it up.

The reason why he chose this Presbyterian hospital was recommended by Joseph, it is said that Jon was born here when he was a child, and the New York obstetrician and gynecology who once treated Han Xue also worked at the Columbia University Research Center in this hospital. With Joseph's relationship and Hong Tao being able to afford her expensive reception fees, it is still very reassuring for her to preside over Ah Shan's delivery work.

Hong Tao's approach was quickly confirmed, and the day after she was hospitalized, Ah Shan was in labor. It hurt for several hours before being wheeled into the delivery room. When Hong Tao received a phone call to inform him to arrive. The doctor in his 40s had already arrived and was directing five or six nurses and midwives to work in the delivery room. Hong Tao didn't want to go to see Ah Shan give birth. It would worry him, but he couldn't leave it alone, so a nurse acted as his message tree, and she went to the delivery room to observe the situation, and then brought the news to Hong Tao, who was sitting outside.

"Her contractions are a little weak, and she can't open her uterine opening...... "This little nurse with little freckles on her face and an upturned nose is the first thing to bring is bad news.

"Then what should I do? I really don't want to have a caesarean section!" Hong Tao is a miscellaneous family, he knows a little about most things, the only thing he doesn't know is giving birth. Because he didn't have any children in his previous life. So there's no place to touch this thing, you can't let someone else's daughter-in-law have a baby, he's watching from the side!

"No, no, no, until the last resort, it is best not to have a caesarean section, and natural delivery is the best choice for the mother...... This has many benefits, such as ......" This little nurse is not only warm-hearted, but also very neat, and heard Hong Tao say that he wants to have a caesarean section. immediately began to popularize fertility knowledge and basic common sense to Hong Tao, without any scruples that Hong Tao was a big man.

It turns out that there is a habit in hospitals in the United States that pregnant women will not take the initiative to do a caesarean section, unless there are special circumstances or the pregnant woman insists on choosing. They encourage pregnant women to give birth naturally. This is good for endocrine and physical health. They also have some ways to cope with some of the pain of natural childbirth, such as painless labor anesthesia, injecting normal saline into the uterus, artificially breaking water to reduce uterine pressure, and so on. An artificial lubricant is also used for lubrication.

For hospitals in the United States, the narrative of natural childbirth is very different from that in China. If you don't have a caesarean section in China, it is considered a natural birth. But in American hospitals, the conditions for natural childbirth are more harsh. It must be born without the help of any drugs, and the child is born completely by the pregnant woman herself, as long as you have anesthetics, inducing injections and other things, it is not called natural childbirth.

"Then what are you waiting for, anesthesia!" Hong Tao began to put forward his opinions again, he felt that after listening to the little nurse's explanation, he was already a qualified obstetrician, and he could go to work tomorrow.

"It's not right now, the uterine opening has to be opened three finger widths before painless delivery can be carried out, don't worry, I'll go in and have a look......" The little nurse didn't laugh at Hong Tao's superficiality, continued to comfort and comfort him, and then went into the delivery room.

Hong Tao was not too calm at this time, he unconsciously took out a cigar and put it in his mouth, and when he lit the fire, he suddenly realized that this was a hospital, and then put away the lighter, and the cigar was still in his mouth, which made him calm down a little.

"The doctor is injecting your wife with medication to help with contractions, wait a little longer, you will be able to ...... soon" A few minutes later, the little nurse came out again and informed Hong Tao of the situation in the delivery room in real time.

"I'd better go in and watch it myself, this thing is the same as watching a serial, one episode in a while, and there are interstitial advertisements in the middle, it's too offended!" Hong Tao opened his mouth and didn't ask anything, he didn't know what questions to ask. Originally, he was not a good-natured person, so he simply didn't have so many problems, and went in and saw for himself.

After changing clothes and after simple disinfection, Hong Tao followed the little nurse into the outer room of the delivery room, where there is a large glass window where you can clearly see the situation in the delivery room. At this time, Ah Shan was lying on the delivery bed, surrounded by four nurses, the midwife was standing between her legs, and the doctor was standing next to Ah Shan's head, talking to Ah Shan.

Maybe it's telepathy, as soon as Hong Tao came to the window, Ah Shan turned his head around, and then showed a smile on his sad face. Hong Tao shook his hand at Ah Shan through the glass window, he wanted to make Ah Shan happy and relieve her attention, but as soon as he grimaced, the doctor shook his head at him, and then left the delivery bed, opened the door and walked out.

"Mr. Hong, your wife's condition is not very bad, you don't need to be too nervous. She needs to concentrate now and rely on her own strength to get the child out, so don't distract her. But it's still a great encouragement for her to have you in, after all, the child belongs to the two of you. Trust me, there's nothing wrong with her!" the doctor and Hong Tao briefly chatted for a few words, and then returned to the delivery room and continued to talk to Ah Shan.

"Hey, by the way, why didn't she scream, shouldn't it hurt a lot?" Hong Tao felt that the doctor was very reasonable, since she said that there was no problem, it should be no problem. As soon as his spirit relaxed, his brain began to spin again, and he soon discovered that something was not quite right, in ordinary movies and television, don't they all play mothers and give birth, shouldn't they all be heartbreaking? Why didn't Ah Shan have any sound at all?

"The doctor wouldn't let her scream, it would affect her concentration, and she had to hold her breath. The little nurse answered Hong Tao's question very clearly.

"It's better to call it, it's not like that...... it's so depressing" Hong Tao felt that such a quiet childbirth had a very strange and depressing atmosphere.

"Okay, the anesthesiologist is giving your wife a spinal injection, it seems that she needs the help of epidural......" When a male nurse in a blue robe started to work, the little nurse explained the current progress to Hong Tao, it turned out that the guy was not a nurse, but an anesthesiologist.

Hong Tao's English is limited to everyday conversations and the industry he is interested in, and he knows very little about medical terminology. He didn't know what Epidural was, so he could only ask the little nurse. The little nurse's answer made his scalp tingle, and he had the heart to rush in to stop Ah Shan from signing the exemption document, but the nurse told him that it was useless to do so, the doctor would only listen to Ah Shan's decision, and the family's opinion was at best a reference, and the operation was currently in progress, and the doctor could drive the family out of the delivery room according to the situation, so it was best not to go in and make trouble.

The reason why the epidural thing made Hong Tao react so much was that it needed to be injected with a long needle from the spine, which was said to be harmless, but theoretically there was a problem with zĂ i sequelae, so Ah Shan needed to sign a disclaimer. Hong Tao watched the anesthesiologist take out a needle more than a foot long, and immediately turned his body to the back, he didn't dare to see how the needle was pierced into Ah Shan's spine, even if he didn't look, he also felt that his back was a little stiff, and his waist was sore.

"Do you think the doctor is telling me the truth? Every pregnant woman is so hard? In terms of the normal delivery conditions you have seen, is my wife's this difficult, or is it average?" Hong Tao looked at his watch, since he received the call, it has been two and a half hours, and there is no movement, he has doubts about the doctor's words again, and wants to find the answer from the little nurse.

"It should be considered average, the first delivery will definitely be troublesome, but she is not very troublesome, I have experienced more than 20 hours of maternity due to contractions. Don't worry, the doctors and midwives you hire are the best, and the anesthesiologists are also the best in the hospital, if there is any problem, they will notify you as soon as possible, you are the first time to be a father, right?" The little nurse's answer made Hong Tao put his heart back into his stomach.

Indeed, after the anesthetic injection, Ah Shan's face was finally not so painful, and while puffing out her mouth and holding her breath hard, she actually had the kung fu to make eye contact with Hong Tao outside the window. And the nurses and midwives around her, who also changed from medical staff to spectators at this time, began to encourage Ah Shan with words. At this time, the delivery room finally became a little angry, especially the obstetrics and gynecology master invited by Hong Tao, her voice was very loud and powerful.

"Well done! hold on...... You're doing a great job, you're the toughest mother I've ever met......! If you can do it, you can do it! He's watching you from the outside, don't let him down! Do you want to make your pretty belly a big cut? right...... Right...... That's it, you just need to work hard and you'll be successful!" (To be continued......) R1292
