18. Thanks
"Okay, it's that simple, just be gentle with your movements."
Gu Cheng memorized Su Su's entire set of movements, because he just said that he would do it again before going to bed at night, and that time he would have to do it himself.
"Thank you very much. How much do these medicines cost?"
Gu Cheng took out his wallet. After all, he was helping to carry it. Su Su couldn't let Su Su pay for it herself.
"It's only a few dollars, it's very cheap. There's no need to give it. Li Li and I are friends."
Su Su waved her hand and refused. Speaking of Li Li, she didn't know where his cemetery was.
"Can I go see Li Li when I have time?"
Gu Cheng was stunned for a moment, then recalled that he had indeed not told Li Li, his only friend, the location of the cemetery.
"Of course, maybe one day you have time, I can take you there."
Seeing that Youyou was getting comfortable being played with, the strangeness in his body had lessened, and he had fallen asleep again.
Gu Cheng took advantage of the fact that the doctor was here, so he kept asking about relevant matters.
"Is it going to be a problem if she can't wake up like this all day long?"
It seems that Youyou's sleeping time is about twenty hours. He goes to bed after eating. When he wakes up, he either poops or urinates. After cleaning up, he falls asleep again.
"This is normal!"
Su Su remembered that Gu Cheng was a novice baby daddy, so it was understandable that he didn't know these common senses. Moreover, she heard that the other party had no elders, so she did the things that the elders should explain for her.
"Newborns grow very quickly in the first month. Normally, they gain two or three pounds a month, so they sleep after eating to ensure that they have enough rest and development time. The state of sleep during this period is also
The time when other functions of their body begin to develop."
"That's it."
Hearing this explanation from an authoritative person, Gu Cheng felt relieved a lot.
"When you are taking care of your baby, remember to feed it every two to three hours, and then the dosage for each feeding is 30 ml. After two weeks, it will become 60 ml, and 90 ml for four weeks.
It’s written on every bottle of milk powder.”
As she said that, she looked around to see what brand of milk powder Gu Cheng bought.
"Hey, you have so many trial pieces, this is not going to work."
On the table on the side, Su Su saw the milk powder cans placed by Li Lan, all of which were small bottles of trial versions.
"The baby can only accept two or three brands of milk powder. Do not change frequently. If there is no abnormality in which milk powder you drink and your bowel movements are normal, just drink one milk powder all the time. If you change it arbitrarily, the baby will not absorb it and will have diarrhea."
With that said, he picked up the already opened can. This is also a big brand in China. The above introduction comes from the grassland.
"This one is quite good. Is she drinking this now?"
Su Su held up the opened jar and asked Gu Cheng.
"Yes, this is a trial pack that my friend asked for from a maternity and baby store. I opened a box casually."
Gu Cheng quickly replied that he didn't expect that there were so many details about simply feeding milk powder.
"This is very good. It's goat's milk, which is good for the baby's skin and contains various trace elements. If her bowel movements are normal, you'd better fix this."
Su Su looked at this can of milk powder. The price in the milk powder market was still high-end, and more importantly, the milk powder was organic.
"Okay, I'll buy this brand later and it's settled."
"How many times has the baby had a bowel movement?"
After asking about the milk powder, Su Su became concerned about the baby's own condition.
"Three times, yes, doctor."
Gu Cheng seemed to have remembered something.
"The first two bowel movements were green, and the last one was yellow. What's going on?"
He remembered his doubts last night, when he saw the green one and was almost frightened.
"Pfft."
Su Su covered her mouth and smiled, her whole body seemed to be blooming. Such an alluring look almost stunned Shang Yan on the side.
"This is meconium. The baby's first few bowel movements are indeed green. This is common sense. The baby is formed in the mother's belly, so the color is dark green. After that, it turns yellow, which means the bowel movement is clean. Don't worry."
Gu Cheng was a little embarrassed, feeling that he, as a father, acted like he didn't understand anything. He couldn't help but doubt his confidence in his ability to raise his daughter.
"It doesn't matter. Only many elders know these things. You are a novice and you have already done a great job. I see that you take good care of the baby."
Su Su seemed to notice Gu Cheng's loss and opened her mouth to comfort him warmly.
"I will clean the baby's umbilical cord now. You have to pay attention that the umbilical cord will fall off in about a week. Cleaning it with iodophor every day can effectively prevent inflammation."
Just before the baby was wrapped up, Su Su saw some blood oozing from the umbilical cord and opened her backpack again.
As an excellent obstetrics and gynecology nurse, she carries iodophor and cotton swabs with her.
She dipped a cotton swab in some brownish-yellow povidone iodine, and then wiped it on the baby's navel.
"Be careful when wiping, be gentle, but also wipe the inside to prevent the umbilical cord from growing together with the flesh again."
As she spoke, she inserted the cotton swab into Youyou's navel, and then rotated the cotton swab in her hand to ensure that the iodophor could reach every corner.
Gu Cheng looked at it, and the muscles on his face twitched a little, as if he felt the same thing.
"don’t worry,"
When Su Su turned around, she saw Gu Cheng grinning, knowing that he was worried about his daughter's pain.
"This won't hurt."
As he said that, he threw the used cotton swab into the trash can, and then wiped some excess iodine with a clean cotton swab.
"Okay, I'm done. If you need anything later, you can call me and ask me. I'm leaving first."
After Su Su finished, she packed up her things and put aside the iodophor and ointment she had just used for Gu Cheng's use.
Then, fearing that Gu Cheng prepared no cotton swabs, he took out two packs of unopened cotton swabs from the bag and put them aside.
"Ah, are you leaving now?"
Shang Yan was still obsessed with the beauty of the young lady and didn't pay attention to everything that happened. He didn't wake up from a dream until he heard the other party leaving.
"Yes, let me treat you to a meal."
Gu Cheng also felt that it was not good to trouble the other person during their off-duty hours, and if he paid, it would tarnish the relationship between the other person and Li Li.
"Please be sure to let me treat you to a meal, otherwise I will be embarrassed to bother you next time."
He looked at Su Su sincerely, and he was really grateful for Su Su's help.
Without the guidance of the other party, she, a novice who knows nothing, would definitely do very badly. Moreover, Li Lan only knew some things, and she did not have very good experience in the health of her baby. After all, she did not have children.
