"I'm dizzy, I'm dizzy, I'm dizzy! Put me down! Why are you spinning me around like that? It's making me sick!" Yan Shi patted Zhuang Zhao hard, urging him to put her down quickly.

It really proves the saying that the best way to eliminate tension is to make others more nervous than you. Seeing Zhuang Zhao like this, she calmed down instead, and even felt a little disgusted by his excitement.

"Sorry, I got too excited. It really is two lines, you're not kidding me, are you?"

"I'm not kidding you. Come with me to the hospital for a check-up first. Pregnancy tests aren't 100% accurate."

"Go to the hospital, where's the key?" Zhuang Zhao turned around in circles but couldn't see the key hanging on the wall.

"How can I dare to have a child when you're like this?" Yan Shi sighed, took the keys off his phone and handed them to Zhuang Zhao. He also brought his phone, SIM card, and ID card, and pulled Zhuang Zhao downstairs.

Zhuang Zhao reached out to support her, as if Yan Shi was already heavily pregnant and couldn't see where she was standing, afraid that she would fall.

Yan Shi wanted to tell Zhuang Zhao that he didn't need to be so careful, but he swallowed the words back.

He won't listen to anything I say.

After getting on the bus, turn on some music; the soothing rhythm can help you relax.

Zhuang Zhao wanted to drive faster, but he was afraid of bumping into things and arriving late. He was also anxious if he drove too slowly.

They rushed to the hospital, registered, had their blood drawn, and waited for the results. The two held hands tightly, not letting go even though they were sweating.

The results are in: positive. Since it's only been a month since my last period, the pregnancy is too short, and the gestational sac may not be visible on ultrasound. I suggest you come back for another ultrasound in a little over a week.

Seeing that the two were dazed and might not be able to remember the precautions, the doctor gave them a booklet.

Perhaps because he had been mentally prepared a couple of days in advance, Yan Shi seemed much calmer than Zhuang Zhao.

Zhuang Zhao wanted to calm down, but her mind was a mess. One moment she was thinking about what foods pregnant women should avoid, and the next she was thinking about where to put the crib. She just couldn't stop thinking.

"Let's find a nutritionist. I think there must be things I haven't noticed, so let's not make a big mistake."

"It's not that bad. There will be plenty of expenses later. As long as you have regular prenatal checkups, there won't be any problems."

"I don't know if there are any prenatal training classes now, or yoga classes and prenatal education classes. I need to arrange all of them."

"Please have mercy on me. I don't like to move around much even if I'm not pregnant. Walking the dog is enough to satisfy my daily exercise needs."

“It’s okay, I’ll go with you, or I can go by myself. It’s good to talk to other pregnant women, so you can avoid a lot of detours.”

Yan Shi sighed. Considering that Zhuang Zhao was genuinely concerned for him and was truly panicked, he decided not to argue with him and let it go in one ear and out the other. Anyway, Zhuang Zhao wouldn't remember what he said in a moment.

When going upstairs, Zhuang Zhao wanted to carry Yan Shi up, but he was afraid that he might hurt Yan Shi's stomach if he carried her incorrectly. In the end, he could only walk half a step slower behind Yan Shi, ready to catch her at any time.

Back in the house, he immediately called Yifan and Erwang together and told them to be more careful and well-behaved, not to make trouble, argue, get angry, or bump into Yanshi. He also told them to be observant and attentive when going out, and to protect Yanshi, etc.

At five weeks pregnant, Zhuang Zhao had an ultrasound, which confirmed the embryos were developing normally and that it was twins. Zhuang Zhao was overjoyed, while Yan Shi panicked. Twins? She wasn't confident she could have a natural birth.

Six weeks pregnant, she was experiencing early pregnancy symptoms, including dizziness, drowsiness, sensitivity to smells, vomiting, loss of appetite, fatigue, frequent urination, and general discomfort. The symptoms weren't severe, but the lack of rest was affecting her mood, so Zhuang Zhao took leave to stay home with her.

Seven weeks pregnant, Yan Shi was unwilling to go out, so Zhuang Zhao found a professional yoga instructor to teach her the poses. After confirming with the doctor that the poses were safe, she taught them to Yan Shi. At the same time, she urged Yan Shi to supplement her nutrition and exercise.

Nine weeks pregnant, her appetite improved. Zhuang Zhao finally found a prenatal class, and whenever Yan Shi felt unwell or in a bad mood and didn't want to go out, he would go by himself. He would not only take careful notes but also record audio and video, afraid of missing anything.

Yan Shi felt pressured just looking at him, and complained to Yuan Xinle. Yuan Xinle said that Bian Liang was the same at first, but with the elders keeping him in check and his enthusiasm only lasting three minutes, he's now completely immobile.

At 12 weeks of pregnancy, during the first prenatal checkup, the fetus was normal. It is a dichorionic diamniotic twin, which develops from two fertilized eggs and is a fraternal twin, so the children may be of different sexes.

Recently, Yan Shi has developed stretch marks on her stomach. Coupled with the changes in her body, Yan Shi has been unable to maintain a good mood. Zhuang Zhao often brings back flowers and gifts, and when the weather is nice, he will take Yan Shi for a walk in the park.

At thirteen weeks pregnant, Yan Shi was experiencing frequent leg cramps, poor digestion, significant weight gain, and an increasingly large belly, leading to heightened anxiety. Unable to elicit positive emotions from Yan Shi, Zhuang Zhao turned to her friends for help, asking them to spend more time with her and offer support.

At seventeen weeks pregnant, Yan Shi has been experiencing persistent bleeding gums and severe gum swelling. Pregnant women cannot take medication casually, which has also led to a loss of appetite.

When Yan Shi felt the first fetal movement, she truly grasped the reality of "a new life inside her." Yan Shi didn't forget to share this joy with Zhuang Zhao. Zhuang Zhao waited a long time for the second fetal movement. He didn't say anything, but his eyes reddened. He held Yan Shi's hand and kissed her belly.

At 24 weeks pregnant, Yan Shi's body shape and posture changed drastically due to her ever-growing belly. She found it increasingly difficult to move around, and experienced backaches, abdominal pain, and numbness in her legs.

At 28 weeks pregnant, prenatal checkups became every two weeks. My enormous belly made it uncomfortable to sit anywhere, and sleeping became the most unbearable problem. Adding to this, the weather was getting hotter, and my uterus had risen to the diaphragm, making it difficult to breathe, and my stomach was constantly upset. Yan Shi's emotions were like a volcano, ready to erupt at any moment.

At 37 weeks of pregnancy, the fetus is basically fully developed and can be delivered via cesarean section after examination.

Generally speaking, for pregnant women, vaginal delivery is painful during childbirth but recovery is quick after delivery, although other complications may occur after childbirth.

Cesarean sections significantly shorten delivery time, can resolve issues such as abnormal fetal position that make vaginal delivery unsuitable, and effectively save the lives of both mother and baby. Furthermore, anesthesia is administered beforehand, unlike painless vaginal delivery where dilation to three centimeters is required before epidural anesthesia. However, cesarean sections result in slower recovery, longer postoperative care, and a higher risk of wound infection and long-term health problems.

For the fetus, vaginal delivery is like a ripe fruit falling from the tree. The fetus is fully developed, and the compression of the birth canal can effectively reduce the occurrence of various neonatal complications. Regular uterine contractions during labor can also help exercise the fetus's lung function.

Cesarean sections increase the likelihood of newborns developing pneumonia, weakened immunity, and allergic diseases, among other ailments.

For twins, unless the twins are in a head-down position and the delivery is smooth, vaginal delivery can easily lead to the second twin suffocating due to prolonged labor, or the second twin's position changing after the first twin is born, making vaginal delivery difficult. In most cases, cesarean section is safer and more reliable.

The surgery was completed in about an hour.

"Congratulations, it's twins! You now have both a boy and a girl." The nurse held one in each arm and showed the newborns to Zhuang Zhao.

"The older sister was born first, weighing 4 pounds 7 ounces, and the younger brother was a little smaller, weighing 3 pounds 2 ounces."
