Chapter 2: The Newborn

Childbirth 1998.10.25 Sunday fine

Today has been two days past the due date, Ah Zhao accompanied me to do a B ultrasound, the results showed that the placenta has aged, the amniotic fluid is less, and it has not entered the pelvis, so I decided to have a caesarean section under the advice of the doctor.

When I got home, my mother and aunt were so anxious that they hurriedly prepared things for me to be hospitalized.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, I entered the operating room. I was panicked, scared, and hopeful. The anesthesia was administered, and my back shrank and I didn't get the needle. Liu Yurong, the head of the epidemic prevention station, caressed my head and comforted me, Yang Jingtao measured my blood pressure, and Zhang Zhi, a classmate who is also an anesthesiologist, was preparing to take pictures of the birth process, and there were familiar faces in the operating room. The anesthetic injection was finally injected, and my back was cold, and my feet began to go numb. Zhang Zhi pricked the needle lightly from part to part and asked me how I felt. About half an hour, I saw Liu Jiahui, the director of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, pick up a scalpel. The scalpel slashed against my stomach, and I felt a tingling pain and couldn't help but scream.

"Wait a minute, the anesthetic is still a little short." I heard Director Liu's voice.

The anesthetic was reapplied and the operation continued. I felt my stomach being dissected, and the organs inside seemed to have been pulled out, and the pain of pulling could not be expressed in words. It was as if the heart was being rubbed around, the whole body seemed to be floating in the water, and the legs couldn't move.

"I don't want to give birth, I don't want to give birth." I cried and prayed, but no one listened to me, they were still tormenting me.

"Blood pressure is low." It was said.

"Don't be nervous, Li Hua, it'll be fine soon."

It seemed like centuries had passed, as if I was no longer me.

"It's out, it's a son."

"Wow, wow......" I heard his loud cry.

"Hurry up and show it to Li Hua."

"WEIGHS 2,900 GRAMS, AND IS 49 CM LONG."

"Li Hua, look, your son!"

I saw him, a pitiful little man, mixed with amniotic fluid and a little vernix, bloody and weeping. Who hugged him and slapped me in the face, and then carried him out to Ah Zhao and the relatives and friends waiting outside. At this time, it was 1:30 p.m.

The stomach seems to be hollowed out. After stitching up, my legs still couldn't move, and they seemed to weigh a thousand pounds. I remember that as soon as the door of the operating room opened, as soon as I saw Ah Zhao, I couldn't help but shed tears, grievances, happiness and everything. Ah Zhao's eyes also turned red.

Listening to the mother, when the child was taken out of the operating room and handed it to Ah Zhao, the child seemed to know that the man holding him in front of him was his father, and opened his eyes very sensibly and looked at him. Ah took a look at the child and handed it to other relatives and friends, and then stared at the door of the operating room in a daze. Listening to my mother's words, I felt a sense of relief. There is nothing wrong with the person I love, unlike other men who neglect their wives when they have a son. I still haven't asked Ah Zhao: What if I can't get out? Is he worried about me? I don't think I'll ever have to ask.

I couldn't eat for 6 hours after the caesarean section, and I didn't eat for 2 hours for fear of suffocation caused by vomiting. Now that the operation has been done and the child has been born, everything has been hollowed out, I am so hungry that my feet are numb and fluttering, and I have no sensation. The wound was painful, and it was still useless to take an injection of cold ding, so I asked for another injection, but the doctor refused to allow it.

The visitors were gone, leaving only me, Ah Zhao, and my son. In the dim light (babies use fluorescent lamps to affect their vision development), looking at my husband's busy figure and looking at my son's quiet face, I feel very happy, and all the suffering has disappeared. What a beautiful picture it is - it is worth my husband and I for the rest of our lives.

My son is not like other children born by caesarean section, he loves to cry, and his voice is loud, but he is extremely unserious about breastfeeding, he eats very little each time, and he is hungry and crying again after a while. The son's appearance of breastfeeding is very funny, his small mouth is crooked, his tongue is licked, and his pink and tender little face is looking for milk left and right, which is very cute. My milk is good, probably because I drank a lot of fish soup when I was pregnant. The son couldn't finish eating, and a lot of milk had to be poured out. The child may come out of the comfort of the womb on the first day, be extremely unhappy, and cry several times in the middle of the night. Ah Zhao and I were so tired that we wanted to die of sleepiness, and the nurse found that the child was sleeping next to the bed and was about to fall down during her two ward rounds.

The son has double eyelids, his eyes are black and shiny, he is born with almost no vernix, he is clean, his skin is white, and everyone says that he is beautiful and cute. In my heart, I also think he is the cutest and most beautiful baby in the world.

Puerperal fever 1998.10.26 Monday fine

I caught a cold last night and had a high fever the next day, which frightened the doctors and parents. Because fever is particularly contraindicated during the puerperium, it will endanger the life of the mother, and the medication will affect the breast milk. The fever was because my mother was afraid of my wind, so she forced me to cover me thickly, and as a result, I sweated and did not change my clothes in time, which caused me to catch a cold.

On this day, my head was dizzy, I barely had the strength to go to the ground, and I had a headache that felt like it was bursting. Headache, the wound on the stomach also hurts, tossing and turning in bed, curling up wrapped in the quilt, trying to relieve a little pain, but it still doesn't work. Press your temples with your hands and pinch your scalp vigorously. The headache was better when I first pinched it, and as soon as I let go of my hand, the pain returned, and even more violently. I kept tossing and turning, and finally I was exhausted and fell asleep in a trance.

After taking a shot of Bupleurum and taking some cold medicine, the fever finally subsided.

The first blow was 1998.10.27 Tuesday fine

An An, the hospital nurse just gave you a bath, you may have a cold and stomach upset, and you have been crying. Your dad touched the diaper on your butt and said that your diaper was heavy, probably full of discomfort, and carried you home to take a shower.

This is the first time the family has bathed you. Grandma is light-hearted, for fear of breaking your thin arms and calves. You look happy in the water and don't cry after taking a shower. We were afraid that you would be cold, and wanted to put you on an extra piece of clothing, but your father took off your hat and socks and carried you out openly.

Half an hour later, he came back with you in his arms. It's a little cold to touch your little face and feet, and I asked him where he was carrying you.

"I carried him to the river for a walk."

"It's winding outside, and he's having a stomach upset, what are you doing with him to the river?"

"My mother said to dry your head and feet, and take tonics. Children should go through ups and downs from an early age, and only when they grow up can they become talented and healthy. ”

Your father's words may be reasonable, but I still feel distressed when I look at your cold red face. I put you by my side and hugged you tightly for fear of being robbed by someone again.

The first fall was 1998.11.6 Friday

We have returned to our home in Rongchang.

In the middle of the night, I suddenly heard a cry. When I looked sideways, my heart suddenly tightened: you had fallen to the floor and were crying "wow". I remember that before I went to bed, I put you next to me, a foot away from the bed, how could your little body fall? Mom can't squeeze you out, because I've always slept honestly, and I can never turn over all night, and besides, I woke up where I was, and I was a certain distance from you. Then you have to fall on your own.

Dad, who was sleeping in the neighboring room, heard Mom calling loudly and hurriedly came to pick you up, but you were still crying very sadly.

"He's so young, how can he have such a strong ability to move? You must have kicked people down! "In the face of my arguments, your father didn't listen at all, and concluded that I kicked you out of bed.

Baby, you're crying so sadly, where are you falling? Mom is so distressed. I'd rather believe that your dad wronged me, and I'd rather believe that you have a strong athletic talent.

It's been a long, long time before you fell asleep in your father's arms.

I'm so sorry, Mom was so careless.
