Although Feng Yanhong's due date was in mid-April, Bai Xiu followed Feng Yanhong almost every step of the way since mid-March.
Everything needed for production has been prepared early in the morning and placed on the shoe cabinet as soon as you enter, ready to go at any time.
The whole family was very nervous from top to bottom, but Feng Yanhong felt nothing.
When preparing things, Feng Yanhong was nervous and scared. The closer she got to the delivery date, the calmer she became.
However, Bai Xiu and Li Boshan were not so calm anymore. Even if she turned over or moved a little bit at night, Li Boshan would wake up and ask her what was wrong.
The tense atmosphere lasted for a week, and finally in the early morning of April, Feng Yanhong felt obvious pain.
My stomach seemed to be tightened, throbbing and painful, but it got better after a while.
"Mom, it seems like it's started..."
It seems to be activated.
Bai Xiu, who was cooking, suddenly panicked.
"Ah?! Do you have a stomachache? The time has not come yet. It's not until mid-April. Now...then, what should I do? Oh, yes, go to the hospital!"
Feng Yanhong didn't expect her mother to react like this at all. She was too nervous.
"Mom, it's just begun. Don't worry. You call Brother Boshan first, and I'll go scrub you and wash your hair."
"It's time, why don't you wash your hair? I'm going to make a call right now, pack your things and let's go."
Bai Xiu was so anxious that she didn't know where she put her phone. She walked around twice before picking up the phone. However, Feng Yanhong calmly entered the bathroom with a towel.
"Don't worry, the contractions have just started, and there will be at least one day left. If I don't wash now, I'm afraid I won't be able to wash for a month."
"Hey, please, I'm looking for Li Boshan."
"Boshan, Yanhong is starting to have a stomachache. Come back and take us to the hospital."
"Okay, okay, Yanhong said there's no need to worry, just take your time and pay attention to your safety."
Bai Xiu hung up the phone and quickly entered the bathroom again.
"Really, what time is it? I still need to wash my hair. I'll do it."
Bai Xiu looked disgusted, but rolled up her sleeves and stepped forward to help Feng Yanhong, who was clumsy.
Li Boshan ran home all the way from the laboratory, sweating all the way. He took a few breaths when he saw that Feng Yanhong had wrapped her hair in a towel and there was nothing wrong with her hair.
"Don't you mean you have a stomachache?"
Feng Yanhong still wiped her hair calmly, looked at the time and replied:
"Stomach pain is normal. It's contractions. There's no regular pattern yet. It should happen every half hour or fifteen minutes later. The faster the frequency, the sooner I'll give birth."
"I've checked the time. It's almost every forty or fifty minutes now, so there's no need to worry."
"Take a breath and put your things in the car later. Let's leave when my hair is dry."
Seeing that she was calm and composed, Li Boshan had nothing to worry about. He turned around and took the things Bai Xiu had packed into his hands.
"You really don't have to worry? Stomach pain is no joke. When I gave birth to Yanjun, I almost didn't even get to the hospital from the pain when I gave birth to Yanjun. It was so fast!"
"It's okay. The drive from our home to the hospital only takes fifteen minutes at most. We can't go out until our bright red hair is dry."
"And the first birth is not that fast. Mom, don't worry."
Li Boshan had done some homework before, but he just didn't know whether the contractions would hurt.
Everything was loaded into the car and checked again before returning to the house.
"Hiss~"
Feng Yanhong wiped her hair with her hand, paused, and took a breath of cold air.
"Does it hurt?" Li Boshan looked worried and took the towel from her hand.
"Fortunately, it doesn't hurt anymore."
It was really labor pain, it just hurt for a while, and it stopped hurting as soon as the contractions stopped.
"I'll wipe it for you." Li Boshan's eyebrows tightened, and his expression gradually condensed.
After changing two towels, she finally wiped her hair until it was 80% dry. Feng Yanhong went into the room and calmly changed clothes. She tidied herself up and packed her bankbook, cash, ID card, birth certificate, etc. before leaving.
Door.
I had another contraction on the road, which lasted longer and was more painful than the previous ones.
After completing the procedures and being admitted to the inpatient department, Feng Yanhong clearly felt that the time gap between contractions had decreased, and the time between two contractions was getting closer and closer.
After the doctor checked Feng Yanhong's condition, "It's still early for your condition. Please walk around in the corridor more often."
When Li Boshan heard that it was still early, his expression immediately turned bad.
"Doctor, she's getting more and more painful. Why is it still early? Is there nothing we can do?"
"This is a natural phenomenon, and it is the same for normal births." The doctor explained while writing the order.
Seeing Feng Yanhong in labor pain again, frowning and clutching the bed board, his heart throbbed with pain.
"Then, how long will this situation last?"
"It's hard to say. It depends on the situation. Some people have pain for one night and then the cervix will open. Some people have pain for two or three days. You can't tell for three to five days."
"So long?!"
Li Boshan suddenly felt confused, how difficult it was to have a child!
"Okay, thank you doctor, we will go back to the ward first." Feng Yanhong stood up slowly and pulled Li Boshan's sleeve.
"If it hurts so much, it's better to have a caesarean section. You can also suffer less."
"You think you won't be punished for having a caesarean section? How could it not hurt with such a long incision on your stomach? That means it didn't hurt at the time. After the anesthesia wears off, it's not as good as labor pain. And the recovery is slow."
Feng Yanhong rolled her eyes at him, grabbed his arm and slowly moved back to the ward.
Li Boshan was silent, his eyebrows furrowed.
"It's okay. Maybe my situation is special and I can give birth at night?"
Feng Yanhong smiled and turned over to comfort Li Boshan and her mother.
After the afternoon, the labor pains became more and more frequent. One second, Feng Yanhong was chatting and laughing, and the next moment, her little face was frowning together, holding her stomach and wishing she was rolling in pain.
"Aren't there any painkillers or other medicines?" Li Boshan found the doctor for the third time.
"How can I use medicine at this time? I have never seen a family member like you. See for yourself. In which ward in this ward is the woman giving birth not in excruciating pain?"
"It's now time. When the final blow comes, you have to endure it. There is no other way, otherwise I will choose a caesarean section and use anesthesia."
Li Boshan was scolded and stood in the corridor feeling even more melancholy.
It is true that from time to time there are cries and screams of pain in the corridor. His wife has never cried out in pain until now, and her look of loss cannot deceive anyone.
"Hey, it's already four o'clock. Boshan, you watch here, I'll go back to cook and deliver it to you later." Bai Xiu looked at his watch, stood up immediately, and was about to go out in a hurry.
"Mom, let Brother Boshan take you back. I don't need anyone to watch here." Her mother didn't even know a few words. She was afraid that she would get on the wrong bus and get lost again.
"No, I've already called my mother and asked her to cook. I'll just pick it up later. How can you stay away from me right now?"
