Chapter 49: Labor Pains
Xia Qing smiled: "Yes, it is relatively smooth." ”
"The baby is about to be born, isn't it?
"November. ”
Xiao Mo couldn't suppress the joy in his heart, and wanted to chat with Xia Qing in depth, but the staff of the bookstore informed Xia Qing to let her go to the sixth floor of the bookstore, and a photographer wanted to take a picture of her and make a first promotional photo. The promotional photo was supposed to be done before the book was signed, but for some reason it was only scheduled for today.
Xia Qing said to Xiao Mo: "I'll go and get busy first, goodbye." ”
Xiao Mo smiled and nodded, reluctantly looking at Xia Qing's departing back. Xiao Mo's friends didn't ignore the change in his expressions, they looked at each other and smiled tacitly, as if they could see the clues, but no one could explain them.
Xiao Mo wanted to wait until Xia Qing's book signing event was over and then invite her to dinner, but he suddenly received a call from the hospital, asking him to go back to the hospital as soon as possible for an emergency operation, so he had to make another appointment with Xia Qing on another day.
The due date is still a month away. There was no one to wait for Xia Qing to be confined in You'an, she decided to go back to her hometown Gutong City to give birth, Gutong has a mother, sister and brother at home, and there are too many people to take care of her.
Xia Qing packed her luggage, and then called Xiao Mo to tell him that she was about to give birth and needed to go back to Gutong to give birth. Receiving Xia Qing's call, Xiao Mo was very happy, he thought that the reason why Xia Qing called him was because he trusted him. He asked Xia Qing to call him if there was any situation before giving birth, after all, he was a doctor, well-informed, and could also deal with some emergencies.
Xia Qing's belly was already very big, and it would be risky for her to travel alone, so Zhang Fang took two days off to escort Xia Qing back to Gutong. Xia Qing returned to her mother, Jin Qiaoyu, liked Zhang Fang very much and wanted to stay with Zhang Fang for two more nights, but Zhang Fang said that she was too busy with work and wanted to hurry back to the unit. Jin Qiaoyu bought a plane ticket for Zhang Fang, and Zhang Fang took a plane back to You'an after staying at Xia Qing's house for one night.
Since his father died and came back once, Xia Qing hasn't been home for almost a year. Thinking of so many things that happened some time ago, and now returning to a warm home, Xia Qing has some mixed feelings. Jin Qiaoyu knew about her divorce and didn't say anything.
Xia Qing gradually reduced the number of times she went out, and she occasionally walked in the community garden, chatting with the baby in her belly, telling stories, and playing soft and elegant world famous songs for the baby. The baby happily stretched out his hand and kicked his legs, responding enthusiastically to Xia Qing. Thinking that he was going to have a child, Xia Qing couldn't help but smile full of happiness and expectation. However, she was still a little nervous at the thought of going into labor soon, after all, it was her first time giving birth and she had no experience at all.
One afternoon two weeks later, Xia Qing was sitting on the sofa watching TV, and suddenly felt a little pain in her lower body, and then there was liquid flowing down rapidly. She remembers that the doctor said that she could give birth at any time in the near future, and if the amniotic water broke and she saw redness, she should go to the hospital immediately.
Xia Qing hurriedly called her mother Jin Qiaoyu, Jin Qiaoyu had given birth to three children and had rich experience, she understood what was going on at a glance. "Xia Qing, don't panic, you're going to give birth!"
Xia Qing clutched her stomach very anxiously, "Mom, it's not time yet, there are still ten days." ”
Jin Qiaoyu said while packing up the items that Xia Qing needed to be admitted to the hospital: "Sometimes it will be in advance, ten days in advance, it's normal." ”
Jin Qiaoyu let Xia Qing lie on the sofa, and then called Xia Qing's eldest brother Xia Lei, telling him that Xia Qing was going to give birth, and asked him to drive Xia Qing to the Municipal Maternal and Child Health Hospital.
Packing up his things, Xia Lei just came. Xia Lei was full of energy, hugged Xia Qing, who weighed one hundred and thirty pounds, into the car, and then let her lie on her side on the seat behind the car. Jin Qiaoyu sat in the passenger cabin. Charley quickly started the car. Xia Qing began to feel labor pains, she ** gently, now that it was a critical moment, she remembered that Xiao Mo had said that if she was scared when she gave birth, she would call him. However, he and I are just friends now, will he really come?
The pain made Xia Qing very scared, she hesitated for a moment, took out her mobile phone and sent a text message to Xiao Mo, telling him that she was about to give birth and hoped that he would come in time. Five minutes later, Xiao Mo actually replied with a text message: I'm flying to Wuxi tonight, you have to be good, with me, don't be afraid.
Twenty minutes later, they arrived at the Gutong Maternal and Child Health Hospital. Xia Qing was immediately sent to the observation room of the delivery room to measure blood pressure, do electrocardiogram, B-ultrasound and fetal movement measurement and a series of prenatal examinations. Because the child has not yet entered the basin, it is necessary to observe for a period of time before deciding whether it can have a smooth delivery. Xia Qing was lying on the small bed, the labor pains became more and more frequent, and the feeling became more and more painful. Growing so big, she had never experienced such pain, and she felt as if she was going to die. She lay on the bed screaming, the pain so severe that she couldn't contain her wailing. She never expected that giving birth would be so painful, and she secretly vowed never to have children again.
Xia Qing's painful expression and constant calls, Jin Qiaoyu's heart was extremely distressed, she said: "Children, women give birth to children like this, endure it and it will pass." ”
Labor pain hit again, Xia Qing grabbed her mother's hand in a panic, like grasping a life-saving straw, "Mom, I can't stand the pain, I won't give birth." He began to cry.
Jin Qiaoyu grabbed Xia Qing's cold hand hard, and with the other hand, she pulled away the sweat-soaked hair on her forehead, "Silly girl, how can you not give birth? ”
The labor pain that lasted for two minutes passed again, Xia Qing stopped crying, and at this time she suddenly remembered Xiao Mo, and she longed for his appearance. She said to her mother, "Mom, you take out my mobile phone and call Xiao Mo and tell him to come quickly." He might, probably got off the plane. ”
Jin Qiaoyu was very surprised and asked, "Who is Xiao Mo? Why are you looking for him when you have a baby?"
Xia Qing was stunned, and her mother's suspicious look reminded Xia Qing that her mother might be suspicious of something, but now Xia Qing couldn't care so much, she said with difficulty: "He's my friend...... He's a doctor, and I'm a little more comfortable with him around. ”
The suspicion in Jin Qiaoyu's heart became deeper and deeper, isn't the child lofty? What does it have to do with Xiao Mo? Seeing Xia Qing in such pain, she had no choice but to agree to call Xiao Mo.
At this time, the midwife suddenly opened the door and came in, and when he saw Jin Qiaoyu and Xia Lei, he said: "Family members, please go out, this is a clean room, only the mother can stay here, please wait in the corridor." ”
Xia Qing nervously took Jin Qiaoyu's hand and said, "Mom, I'm afraid!"
Jin Qiaoyu comforted Xia Qing and said, "Xia Qing, let's not be afraid, be brave, Mom and your eldest brother are waiting for you outside." ”
