: March is busy, April is edema and panic

Author: Biantang Wushi

On March 8, the little Thomas from the London company came over. He was not tall and roughly the same as Bill. He was blonde and slightly fat. He looked thirty-five years old. It could be seen that he had a good temper and had no airs at all. After he entered the company every morning, the first thing he did was to say hello to almost everyone in the office and chat for a few more words. At the beginning, many people were a little nervous and said English stuttering, but with the encouragement of the little Thomas, they could slowly chat with him a few words, which could also be regarded as a disguised improvement of everyone's confidence in speaking foreign languages. His purpose of coming to Shenzhen this time was to conduct a field investigation, implement the project design on paper as soon as possible, and then ask the guests to confirm, so that the next development action can be taken. Strictly speaking, the little Thomas is already in the development stage.

On the 17th, two colleagues came to Miami Company, both of whom were men. Their position in the head office was to follow orders, so they were particularly concerned about the progress of the order.

In my original impression, these Europeans and Americans should be like the Morriss I worked at Longgang Lindao Company before, and then they were reluctant to work overtime for an extra minute. Of course, we must be honest. During these 8 hours, people's work attitude was extremely serious and hard-working. They did everything they did and did nothing. I think my daily workload was already a lot, but compared to them, we were still a lot worse.

But I didn't expect that the gangsters of Intelli would work so hard. From the first day they came to Shenzhen, they didn't even fall off the jet lag, and they immediately started working like they were on a clockwork. And they seemed to want to work 25 hours a day. The only enjoyment seemed to be drinking coffee, eating French fries and burgers.

Think about it, since the ghost guys are so hardworking and capable, how can we be so slow and willing to fall behind? So, this period of time has made me so tired that I always want to close my eyes to make up for my sleep. Every day, I either drive them to this factory to see samples, go to that factory to discuss design, inspect large goods, or accompany them to work overtime in the office until late at night. They don’t understand some things, or they can’t make up their minds, and they also need to ask for instructions and communicate. This makes me suffer. I feel like I am a bodyguard and nanny who provides 24-hour personal service.

Fortunately, they only stayed for more than ten days together. It is no exaggeration to say that if they stayed for a few more days, with the intensity of work, I would be almost unable to hold on. This physical fatigue is secondary. We are young and tired, and if we sleep well, we will still be full of energy after getting up the next day. What I can't stand is psychological fatigue. During that time, my mind was

All day long is full of all kinds of problems, troubles and difficulties. Then I have to think about how to provide the right solution, and even think about these problems in my sleep. One morning, Zitong told me in surprise that I was talking to me in my sleep at night, as if I was making a phone call, and I talked for a long time. Hahaha, my god, alas, but what else can I do? After opening my eyes every day, I felt that this work was pressing towards me like a mountain.

Strictly speaking, in fact, in the past half month, my workload was much greater than that of them, because most of the time they only needed to give me one person or to me. As for me, I am a three-way person. I have to treat them, colleagues in the company, and factories. No one party can afford to lose money. Although I have always claimed to have a great memory, I have to take notes.

Everyone, tell me, is it easy to make some money? If you can’t do it well, the company is not satisfied, and the leader underestimates your ability, and you may lose the job; if you do it well, the company is satisfied and your position is saved, but you are about to be exhausted, the most important thing is lack of sleep.

but, that is life

On April 6, my father called and told me that he had bought my mother the train ticket to Guangdong on the 15th. By the way, I would like to ask if there is anything else I need to bring?

I told my father not to bring anything, especially thick clothes, so I must not bring them. I can’t use them in Shenzhen and don’t need to bring thin clothes. It’s too troublesome along the way, so I try to wear lightweight clothes as much as possible. In addition, I told my father to pay attention to what he had been coming for a long time, and repeatedly told me that I must, be sure, be sure, be sure, be sure, be sure, be sure, be sure, be sure, be sure, be sure, be sure, be sure, be sure, be sure, be sure, be sure, be sure, be sure, be sure to get off the wrong car, be sure to go to the terminal, see that everyone gets off before getting off the car after getting off the car

At this time, Zitong's belly was already very big. Although she had strictly followed the doctor's advice and paid attention to her diet, she couldn't resist the two guys inside. They seemed to be growing wildly like fighting. I was really worried that one day would she burst her belly!

What makes everyone even more worried is that after April, I suddenly found that her feet and calves seemed to be getting fatter and fatter. But when I take a closer look, it is not right. This is not fat, it is obviously swollen. When I press the swollen part with my fingers, my skin will obviously be concave and it will take a while to recover slowly. Although it looks good, it has had an impact on my daily life, especially her feet. It is no longer possible to wear her own slippers, so I can only wear my large slippers.

I was worried, so I hurriedly asked the doctor what to do during the prenatal examination. The doctor observed it and probably was accustomed to him. He did not give any specific solutions, but only gave a few suggestions:

1. Full rest: The doctor said that the best way to eliminate edema is to rest. Studies have shown that when a person is resting, the burden on the heart, liver, kidneys, etc. will be reduced, and the edema will naturally be reduced or disappear.

2. Pay attention to keeping warm: edema means water accumulation. In order to eliminate edema, it is necessary to ensure smooth blood circulation and smooth breath. In order to achieve these two points, in addition to being at ease and nourishing, you should also pay attention to keeping warm. Damn, do you still need to keep warm in Shenzhen? You can only use hot water every night to burn it.

3. Wear appropriate clothes: Try not to wear tight clothes as this will cause poor blood circulation and cause swelling in the body. You don’t need to talk about this. Since you became pregnant, you have been very loose.

4. Eat low-salt meals: After pregnancy, the body regulates salt and the moisture function decreases. Therefore, in daily life, you should try to control your salt intake as much as possible. The daily intake is less than 10g. This is actually okay. I have a strong taste and I usually like to eat salty foods. But now for the safety and health of their mother and son, I don’t care. From today on, I must follow the doctor’s advice and reduce salt lightly.

5. Wear elastic (trouser) socks: In order to reduce excessive blood accumulation on the lower limbs, it is recommended to wear elastic (trouser) socks before going out in the morning. You can try this, but she is usually very careful and rarely sits for a long time or stands for a long time.

6. Raise your legs: It is recommended that pregnant mothers raise their legs for 15 to 20 minutes before going to bed (or during lunch break), which can accelerate blood reflux and reduce intravenous pressure. It can not only relieve edema during pregnancy, but also prevent the occurrence of diseases such as varicose veins in the lower limbs. I have to assist in this, and I am determined to practice it from now on.

7. Sleep on the left: Take a lying position on the left when sleeping, which can avoid compressing the veins of the lower limbs and reduce the resistance to blood reflux, which can also reduce the pressure on the heart.

After trying strictly according to the doctor's advice for a few days, it didn't seem to have much effect. Because we had a good experience of seeing a Chinese doctor before, we went to see Chinese medicine again. The method adopted by Chinese medicine is diet therapy:

1. Intake a high-protein and low-salt diet: You should consume high-quality protein every day, such as poultry, livestock, meat, fish, seafood, shellfish, eggs, milk and dairy products, soybean products (such as soy milk, tofu, dried tofu, vegetarian chicken, bean buns, dried shredded shreds), etc. These foods are prepared with fresh ingredients and strong-flavored vegetables, such as onion, tomatoes, garlic, fennel, celery, coriander, mushrooms, wolfberry, red dates, black dates, lemon, vinegar, bay leaves, etc., which can reduce the amount of salt used.

2. Eat enough vegetables and fruits: Vegetables and fruits contain a variety of vitamins and trace elements necessary for the human body. They can improve the body's resistance, strengthen metabolism, and also have the effects of detoxification and diuresis.

3. Eat less or do not eat foods that are difficult to digest and bloating: such as fried glutinous rice cakes, sweet potatoes, onions, potatoes, etc., to avoid causing abdominal distension, causing poor blood flow and aggravate edema.

4. Intake of vitamin B1 or supplement vitamin B group from food: Foods rich in vitamin B1 include yeast, liver, whole grains (such as brown rice), soybeans, pods, wheat germ, and potatoes.

According to friends, this traditional Chinese medicine prescription is effective, but it works slowly. If we take it late, if we can take diet therapy two or three months in advance, or even four or five months, it will still have obvious results. Oh, who is saying that we have no experience? Looking at Zitong's edema calves and soles every day, I feel so distressed that I am at a loss and very anxious. However, I have only strength but can't help with anything. I can only advise her not to go to Huaqiangbei again. Anyway, there is Yu Jinli to watch it there, so it shouldn't be a big problem. Besides, I will go and take a look when I have time.

However, she refused to agree, but felt that she didn't have to listen to the doctor for everything. Moreover, the edema did not affect her. On the contrary, she believed that the more she had to go out for a walk every day and exercise, so that it would be more convenient for natural birth in the future. She didn't want to have a caesarean section.
