Lin Yu rubbed her eyes, sat up, and said, "She didn't come."

After a few seconds, the two stared at each other, somewhat stunned.

Lin Yu placed her hand on her stomach, swallowed hard, and said, "It can't be that fast, can it?"

Gu Yunze nervously grabbed her hand: "No, I don't know. Should we go get checked?"

Lin Yu nodded: "Okay, I'll take a leave of absence to get checked out. You, don't tell anyone yet."

Gu Yunze pursed his lips and said, "I'll take leave to go with you too. Your brother can go to the army base by himself later."

Lin Yu wanted to refuse, but seeing his determined expression, she knew she couldn't persuade him, so she had no choice but to agree.

It would be even better if someone accompanied you to the medical check-up.

This conjecture helped Lin Yu overcome her distress. She got up, changed her clothes, and went out with Gu Yunze.

Lin Wen had already set out breakfast and was chatting with Qiao Feng.

The two seemed to be having a good chat.

Upon seeing the two of them come out, Lin Wen greeted them, "Sister, brother-in-law, come and have breakfast."

Lin Yu sat down, and Gu Yunze seemed a little nervous.

He followed closely behind Lin Yu.

Qiao Feng pouted: "Does it have to be so sticky?"

Gu Yunze glanced at him: "What do you know?"

Lin Yu smiled and shook her head: "My brother is right. Don't be so nervous, let's have breakfast."

Hearing her words, Qiao Feng sensed that something was wrong.

After breakfast, Gu Yunze told Qiao Feng to go to work by himself and asked for leave for him, which made Qiao Feng even more confused.

Lin Wen also stood there, refusing to leave: "Sister, is there anything I can help you with? Do you need any assistance?"

Qiao Feng was just as persistent and refused to leave.

Lin Yu and Gu Yunze had no choice but to tell them their guess: "We don't know if it's true or not yet, so don't tell anyone, and go to work."

Qiao Feng and Lin Wen were overjoyed. After promising not to tell anyone, they also told them to be sure to tell them any good news.

The two walked away, turning back every few steps, before Lin Yu and Gu Yunze prepared to leave.

Gu Yunze helped Lin Yu into the car and fastened her seatbelt.

Lin Yu pulled on the seatbelt herself and said, "I'm not disabled, you don't need to be so careful."

Gu Yunze refused to back down: "I have to take good care of you, Xiaoyu. I'm driving now."

Lin Yu smiled and shook his head. Did he really need to be this nervous?

Gu Yunze started the car, but didn't dare to drive fast.

Lin Yu watched the scenery outside move by and realized that even bicycles could easily overtake them.

She said, speechless, "Can't you drive faster?"

Gu Yunze pursed his lips and looked seriously ahead, saying, "No, what if the bumpy ride hurts you?"

Lin Yu touched her stomach and said, "Even if you are pregnant, it's only the size of a soybean. Why are you so nervous? You're driving too slowly and there won't be enough time for a checkup."

Gu Yunze planned to take her to the military general hospital for a check-up, which usually takes about half an hour by car.

At this speed, I don't know if he can get there in an hour.

Lin Yu said rudely, "If you can't drive, then I'll drive instead."

She had driven a large truck when she worked at the food factory, but she hadn't tried driving a military vehicle yet, and she was quite eager to give it a try.

Gu Yunze was startled by this: "That won't do, you can't drive it."

He was already worried about Lin Yu, so how could he let her drive?

Lin Yu said impatiently, "Then drive faster. This dawdling is annoying."

Seeing that she was really angry, Gu Yunze stepped on the gas and accelerated.

But I still don't dare to act like I usually do.

They will carefully avoid any pitfalls they encounter.

Lin Yu was too lazy to say anything more. She closed her eyes and ignored it, as long as she got there eventually.

Seeing that she had her eyes closed, Gu Yunze assumed she was sleepy and didn't say anything more.

After driving for almost an hour, the car arrived at the hospital entrance.

This is the General Hospital of the Military Region. Gu Yunze drove his military vehicle in, greeted the gatekeeper, and drove in.

Dr. Chu from the obstetrics and gynecology department looked at the blood test results in her hand, asked a few more questions, and told them:

"Congratulations, you are indeed pregnant. According to our calculations, you should be around six weeks along."

Lin Yu touched her belly, imagining what her child would look like, a silly smile on her face.

Gu Yunze was not to be outdone. He placed his hand on hers, his voice trembling slightly: "Xiaoyu, we have a child."

Lin Yu's eyes welled up with tears: "Yes, it's our child."

Dr. Chu had seen countless new parents and was used to their reactions.

Her gentle voice rang out: "Please don't get excited, let me tell you some things to avoid during pregnancy."

Lin Yu quickly looked at her seriously and said, "Please speak."

She patted Gu Yunze again: "Listen quickly and remember it."

Afraid he wouldn't remember, Gu Yunze thought for a moment and said, "Doctor, could you lend me a piece of paper to write it down?"

Seeing the two of them scrambling around, Dr. Chu couldn't help but smile.

She handed Gu Yunze a piece of paper and a pen before beginning to speak: "You're a month and a half pregnant now. The only pregnancy reaction you've experienced is drowsiness. You might also experience vomiting later, or you might not. It varies from person to person..."

Gu Yunze's brows furrowed more and more as he listened, hearing about vomiting and the possibility of leg cramps and swelling later on.

Is pregnancy such a difficult thing for women?

Lin Yu had known several pregnant women around her, and she was familiar with these situations.

It was precisely because she understood what pregnant women go through that she chose to postpone having children.

She should use the time when her mind is clearest and her energy is at its peak to learn and lay a foundation for the future.

She chose to get pregnant at this time because she had more free time and was not yet of advanced age.

She wasn't scared after hearing about these pregnancy symptoms; she just felt that pregnancy was really tough and she prepared herself mentally.

Dr. Chu's voice was gentle: "Don't worry, these reactions vary from person to person. I see that you are in good physical condition. As long as you take good care of your body, nothing will happen."

Lin Yu was soothed by her voice and felt completely calm.

Dr. Chu emphasized: "However, it is best to avoid sexual intercourse during the early and late stages of pregnancy."

She was saying this to Gu Yunze.

Men tend to think with their lower bodies; she has seen many men who disregard their wives' health and insist on satisfying their own desires.

This ultimately led to serious consequences, leaving the doctor feeling helpless.

Upon hearing the case she described, Gu Yunze turned pale with fright: "Doctor, but we had... what should we do?"

Lin Yu wanted to cover his mouth; why did he have to bring this up again?

Dr. Chu thought the husband was someone who would listen to advice, so she said, "The test results are fine now, just be careful in the future."

Gu Yunze nodded in relief: "I understand, doctor."

Lin Yu raised her hand and asked, "Doctor, do I need to come for a prenatal checkup every month?"

Dr. Chu has seen so many pregnant women, all of whom come once after finding out they are pregnant, and then again after giving birth; none of them ever proactively ask for prenatal checkups.

But as a doctor, she naturally hopes that pregnant women can come for check-ups frequently in order to understand the baby's condition.

"Yes, you can come every month. Do you live far away?"
