Grandpa Fang and Grandma Fang all suspected that Lin Mai was pregnant, but Fang Zhuoran only suspected that she was sick.
He and Lin Mai had only started preparing to have a baby on May 1st, and they had always been protective.
Even if Lin Mai was pregnant for the first time, it would only be four weeks now.
Usually women only experience morning sickness after six weeks of pregnancy, but now Lin Mai has morning sickness. This is not normal.
He walked over and helped Lin Mai: "Are you feeling unwell?"
Lin Mai shook his head: "I'm in good health."
She pointed to the spicy prawns on the dinner table: "I just can't smell the shrimps. I feel like vomiting when I smell them."
Grandma Fang also came over at this time, and together with Fang Zhuoran helped Lin Mai sit down on the small sofa in the dining room.
She rolled her eyes at Fang Zhuoran: "I think you are stupid for being a doctor, you look at everyone like a patient.
Mai Zi is unhappy. Do you understand that he is unhappy?
You are old, you don’t know anything, and you are still a doctor!”
Fang Zhuoran was a little shocked. Why did everyone say he was old when he was clearly not old at all.
He was slightly uncomfortable and said: "We have been taking measures before May Day, and we only started preparing to have a baby after May Day. Even if we are pregnant, we cannot start morning sickness so early."
Grandpa Fang also came over, and the whole family of three gathered around Lin Mai, studying her complexion and asking about her physical condition.
But Lin Mai looked good and said there was nothing wrong with her health.
Grandpa Fang said: "Everything has an exception. Maybe Maizi got morning sickness earlier than others.
Let's not make wild guesses here.
Zhuoran, take Maizi directly to the hospital to see if she is pregnant."
Although the hospital was already off work at this time, Fang Zhuoran could ask his colleague who worked overtime in the laboratory department to do a check on Lin Mai, which only took an hour.
But he wanted to wait until Lin Mai had dinner before taking her to the hospital.
Because Lin Mai wanted to vomit when he smelled the shrimp, Grandma Fang took the plate of spicy prawns off the table.
Lin Mai has a good appetite except that he can't get used to the smell of shrimps.
She ate two fried yellow croakers and a lot of fried pickles with dried chili peppers.
Grandma Fang became more and more happy as she looked at Lin Mai. She looked like she was pregnant.
Sour and spicy girl.
Maizi loves sour beans so much, and there is a good chance that she is pregnant with a fat boy.
After dinner, Grandma Fang urged Fang Zhuoran to take Maizi to the hospital for an urgent check-up with a colleague.
He also told Fang Zhuoran to buy some plums and other sweet and sour fruits for Lin Mai to eat.
Pregnant women love to eat sweet and sour fruits.
Fang Zhuoran drove Lin Mai to the hospital and went directly to the inpatient department.
Lin Mai followed him and asked shyly: "Didn't you tell me to take me for a pregnancy test? How do you take me to the inpatient department?"
Fang Zhuoran held her little hand and walked not very fast, and explained gently: "You can check your pregnancy slowly. I want to make sure you are fine first.
But I don’t want to occupy the resources of the emergency department, which will affect the patients who visit the emergency department.
So I brought you to the inpatient department to ask a colleague to check you out.
At this point, the doctors in the inpatient department are not particularly busy."
Fang Zhuoran took Lin Mai directly to the office of a female internal medicine professor in the inpatient department.
Although the internal medicine professor specializes in gastroenterology, she is also proficient in other internal medicine.
The internal medicine professor first used a stethoscope to conduct a preliminary examination on Lin Mai. There was no abnormality.
After questioning Lin Mai carefully, the diagnosis was that the possibility of pregnancy was very high.
Fang Zhuoran was stunned: "Are you sure you are pregnant? We had protective measures in place before May Day.
Even if she got pregnant on May Day, it’s only been four weeks now, so it’s impossible for my wife to suffer from morning sickness so early.”
The gray-haired female professor rolled her eyes at him: "Are you so sure that your protective measures will not cause any accidents?
And each person is different. Generally speaking, most women may only experience morning sickness after six weeks of pregnancy.
But there are exceptions, and your wife happens to be an exception.
You are a doctor yourself, haven't you thought of this?"
Why didn't Fang Zhuoran expect that?
If it is really different from person to person and morning sickness occurs within four weeks, then that should reassure him.
He was afraid that his wife might be feeling unwell, so he needed early detection and early treatment.
This is the so-called care that leads to chaos, and doctors cannot heal themselves.
Fang Zhuoran has this kind of mentality. If Lin Mai is not feeling well, he will think about it and affect his judgment.
Since the female professor of the aunty generation said there is no problem, then it is not a big problem.
Fang Zhuoran held Lin Mai's hand again and went to the laboratory department to find a colleague to do a pregnancy test for her.
While the colleagues in the laboratory department were drawing Lin Mai's blood, they joked to Fang Zhuoran: "You are so anxious to know if your wife is pregnant?"
Fang Zhuoran nodded generously: "Yes."
The blood test for pregnancy takes an hour.
Fang Zhuoran stayed up for an hour like a year, and finally waited for the result. Lin Mai was indeed pregnant.
He was so happy that as soon as he came out of the laboratory department, he hugged Lin Mai and kissed her non-stop.
At first, Lin Mai let him do what he wanted, then pushed him hard: "I'm pregnant, but you're so rude, and you're not afraid of hurting the baby in your belly."
Only then did Fang Zhuoran let her go: "I'm so happy. I'll be careful in the future."
Lin Mai touched his belly: "I really want to know how old the baby is, but unfortunately I won't know until I come to the hospital for an examination tomorrow."
Western medicine uses B-ultrasound to calculate the gestational age based on the size of the fetal sac or the size of the fetus.
At this time, the doctor who does B-ultrasound has already got off work, and there are no doctors working overtime.
Fang Zhuoran suddenly thought of Chinese medicine. Chinese medicine can tell how long a pregnancy is by taking the pulse.
Youhe Hospital has a Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
The employee family area is right next to the hospital, and several traditional Chinese medicine experts from the hospital live in the employee family area.
Fang Zhuoran immediately took Lin Mai to the home of a Chinese medicine professor named Ren.
The old Chinese medicine practitioner with a glowing face had finished dinner and was leisurely drinking tea with his family and watching TV.
I was shocked when I saw Fang Zhuoran suddenly visiting with his beautiful wife.
When he found out the reason, the old Chinese doctor Ren smiled like an aunt.
He took Lin Mai's pulse carefully, and then told Fang Zhuoran with a smile that Lin Mai had been pregnant for more than a month.
Lin Mai's jaw almost dropped to the floor in shock: "You've been pregnant for more than a month? But my aunt was here last month!"
Ren, an old Chinese medicine doctor, smiled: "The dosage is very small, right, one day at most.
Some people will have the phenomenon of false aunty in the early stages of pregnancy, and this happens to you."
Lin Mai was relieved.
Fang Zhuoran complained in his mind that there was indeed something wrong with the protective measures.
He was annoyed in his heart that he was too careless and did not pay attention to Lin Mai's physical abnormalities. During the month when Lin Mai was pregnant, he was still with her...
She is really worse than a beast. Fortunately, Lin Mai is in good health and did not hurt the baby in her belly. Otherwise, she would regret it to death...
Fang Zhuoran thanked the old Chinese medicine doctor Ren and left with Lin Mai.
After leaving the family community, Lin Mai shyly whispered: "There will be problems with the protective measures.
When others heard it, they thought I wanted to strengthen our marriage.
She purposely poked holes in the condom and got pregnant secretly."
Fang Zhuoran looked at the little beauty next to him in surprise. How could this child's mind be so strange that he could even think of this?
He hugged her and said, "If you want to pierce a hole, I will pierce it. I want to strengthen our marriage."
Lin Mai smiled happily in his arms.
Fang Zhuoran obeyed Grandma Fang's order and bought Lin Mai several kilograms of green plums that looked very sour on the way home.
Before he got home, Lin Mai wiped the green plums with his handkerchief, ate half a catty, and leaned back on the chair with satisfaction.
As soon as the two returned home, Grandpa Fang and Grandma Fang all came to greet them and couldn't wait to ask: "What's the test result?"
Fang Zhuoran smiled and said: "I have eaten more than half of a pound of green plums, so of course I am pregnant."
When Doudou heard that there were green plums to eat, she swallowed her saliva and said she wanted to eat them too.
Lin Mai gave her all the remaining plums.
Grandpa Fang and Grandma Fang were so happy that they told Doudou that her mother was pregnant and she was not allowed to hold her in the future to avoid hurting the baby in her belly.
Doudou nodded obediently.
Lin Mai knelt down and asked her: "Do you want a younger brother and younger sister?"
Doudou nodded: "I think so!"
Lin Mai smiled and asked, "Why do you think so?"
Doudou Nai said in a sweet voice: "With younger brothers and sisters, I will have someone to play with!"
What she said made everyone laugh.
Grandma Fang said to Lin Mai: "Look, you are pregnant. Don't go to Jiangcheng tomorrow. Just let Zhuo Ran go alone."
Lin Mai shook his head: "No, if Zhuo Zhuo really gives up his job, I have to deal with him. Zhuo Ran can't do this.
The TV factory cannot collapse not only because of my investment, but also because of the employees in the factory.
If the factory collapses, those employees will lose their jobs, where will they find work?"
Grandma Fang sighed helplessly: "It's all my fault that Zhuo Zhuo has no sense of responsibility. He just gave up his job when he said he wanted to, and it made you work so hard.
How about I go back to Jiangcheng with you tomorrow and beat up that boy Zhuo Zhuo!"
Fang Zhuoran said: "Grandma, you are too old to worry about our affairs.
I can beat up excellence."
Grandpa Fang waved his hand: "Since you two are going back to Jiangcheng tomorrow, then go to bed early."
When the couple returned to the room, Lin Mai took his pajamas from the closet and was about to take a shower.
Fang Zhuoran hugged a princess from behind and walked to the bathroom: "I'll give you a bath."
Lin Mai stroked his forehead: "It's not that exaggerated, it's just a pregnancy.
Besides, the baby may be a little bigger than a tadpole now, so it’s not like I can’t take care of myself.”
Fang Zhuoran used his medical knowledge to popularize: "The fetus that is nearly two months old is already 40 centimeters tall.
The embryo has been basically formed, and the fetal head, trunk, and limbs can be distinguished, and the fetal head is larger than the trunk.
How can it be only a little bigger than a tadpole? Have you ever seen a tadpole that big?"
Lin Mai was very surprised: "You are so old, so why don't I show my pregnancy?"
"Because you are thin, so starting from tomorrow, you have to eat more and make yourself fatter."
Fang Zhuoran bathed Lin Mai carefully, and when he went to bed at night, he gently held her in his arms.
That night, Lin Mai slept particularly soundly.
Fang Zhuoran was so excited that he fell asleep very late.
The thought of having a child with Lin Mai, even if it was only in Lin Mai's belly, made him smile in his sleep.
