"Yes, the first three fingers are slower, and since it's her first pregnancy, it will take at least five or six hours."

Thinking that tomorrow is National Day, Dr. Jiang sighed again after finishing his sentence.

"The two little ones know how to pick their time."

Huo Tingzhou didn't care whether it was National Day or not.

All he wants now is for his wife to be well.

Although his wife didn't utter a single word of pain, he knew she was feeling unwell.

I feel very uncomfortable!

Otherwise, she wouldn't have frowned and remained silent for so long.

Jiang Si was indeed feeling a bit uncomfortable, because just now, she finally understood what the contractions Teacher Hu had described felt like.

Although it's bearable for now, Dr. Jiang just said that it's not dilated to one finger yet.

Seeing Jiang Si's pale face, Huo Tingzhou's heart clenched instantly.

"Dr. Jiang, if the pain is very severe, is there any way to help her?"

Yes, there are some, but most of them only treat the symptoms and not the root cause, at most they can only alleviate the symptoms.

Another option is to take painkillers.

But Comrade Jiang's water has broken, so there's no way to give her the injection.

It will affect the fetus's breathing.

Seeing that both mother and son had the same tense expression, Dr. Jiang offered a word of comfort.

"Don't worry too much. Comrade Jiang is young and in good health, he'll be fine."

As for the pain, there's nothing we can do about it.

Which mother doesn't experience pain?

"By the way, you guys quickly prepare some food to help her replenish her strength, otherwise she won't have the strength when she gives birth. It would also be best to make her a cup of strong honey water."

The hospital has a clear rule that pregnant women who are dilated to three centimeters or more are prohibited from eating anything.

Otherwise, if vomiting occurs suddenly during childbirth, it can easily lead to asphyxiation and pneumonia.

So, while the contractions aren't too bad yet, eat whatever you can.

After all, she was going to have two children, and if she couldn't keep up with her strength later on, it would be a big problem!

"Okay, Dr. Jiang, I'll go right now."

When it comes to cooking, it's Huo's mother who's really good at it.

After saying that, she glanced at Huo Tingzhou and said, "You stay here with Sisi and massage this area for her. Don't stop."

As soon as she finished speaking, Mrs. Huo ran downstairs.

Just then, Uncle San and Uncle Zhong arrived, and the two sides met at the entrance of the building.

Third Uncle: "Mother-in-law, how is Si Si?"

"It's okay so far, the contractions have just started."

Mrs. Huo briefly explained the room number and her daughter-in-law's situation.

He added, "My dear in-laws, you go up first. I'll go back and get Sisi something to eat."

"Alright, alright, thank you for your hard work, mother-in-law."

"What's so hard about this?"

Mrs. Huo blurted out, "The one who's suffering the most is Si Si. She's suffering for my son."

Forget about getting her something to eat, she could ask for the stars in the sky.

They also need to find a way to pick them.

"My dear in-law, that's all for now. I'll head back now."

"Okay, okay."

This was no time for formalities. As soon as they finished speaking, Uncle San and Uncle Zhong quickly went to their rooms according to the room numbers.
