Chapter 177

At 30 weeks, Jiang Zhinian had a routine prenatal check-up and needed to undergo a minor fetal anomaly screening test.

At this gestational age, the baby is actually already very large, and even if it is born, it will be a premature baby with a very high chance of survival.

If any problem with the baby is found at this time, it will be a big blow to the pregnant mother. But no matter how much she wants to escape, Jiang Zhinian is still stuck on time and is carried to the hospital by Shi Ye.

"I hope the baby can cooperate a little so the doctor can see more clearly." Jiang Zhinian patted her belly gently, "Wake up, baby, and cooperate a little. Don't bother Mommy. You know, Mommy doesn't want to climb the stairs."

After Jiang Zhinian finished speaking, he looked at Shi Ye with a smile, but was surprised to find that the other party seemed a little absent-minded.

"What's wrong?"

Shi Ye looked at Jiang Zhinian calmly: "What?"

"It feels like you're worried."

"Yeah, a little bit about work."

"Is it about Uncle Wen? Is there any result?"

"Not yet. This kind of thing takes a long time from investigation to conclusion."

Jiang Zhinian nodded and touched her belly: "Shi Ye, I'm a little nervous..."

"Don't worry, the baby will be healthy."

"Sometimes I wish the doctor could see more clearly so the baby can be born healthy. But... sometimes I wish the doctor couldn't see so clearly, so that even if something happens, the baby can still have a chance to be born. I'm really conflicted."

After listening to this, Shi Ye thought about it carefully, but did not express any opinion. He just hugged Jiang Zhinian into his arms and said: "Conflicts are normal."

Jiang Zhinian's name was called on the big screen. Jiang Zhinian stood up, took a deep breath, and went into the ultrasound room.

Shi Ye waited for a while, and suddenly a feeling of anxiety surged in his heart. He couldn't explain why, but he just felt a little uneasy.

The cell phone happened to ring.

"Shi Ye, did you read the emails I forwarded to you last time?"

It’s news from Wang Bo.

"I saw it."

In fact, there was not much information. He just asked Wang Bo about some things about Shi Ye, from career to life, no matter how big or small.

Shi Ye asked him to answer truthfully. He wanted to see what his father was going to do.

"They sent me another message. I wasn't sure whether to reply, so I sent it to you."

Shi Ye received the email and opened it. It was a whole page filled with questions about Jiang Zhinian and their child.

Like a lion whose territory was invaded, Shi Ye instinctively felt displeased and offended.

"No need to go back."

He didn't mind his information being known by the other party, but Jiang Zhinian didn't.

His father was a man with a very strange way of thinking, cold-blooded and cunning. He could not guess what his father was going to do to Jiang Zhinian.

"I also feel that these questions are getting stranger and stranger the more I read them. It feels like they're secretly spying on your lives. Hey, you should pay more attention to them. I always find them very strange."

"knew."

Shi Ye looked at the questions again and after a simple analysis, he came up with a strange guess. The person on the other side was getting to know Jiang Zhinian in an online blind date-style way. This was a cold judgment and scoring standard. It seemed that he wanted to see whether this woman met his requirements for a daughter-in-law.

What if it complies, what should I do? What if it doesn’t comply, what should I do?

Shi Ye was staring at his phone in a daze. Jiang Zhinian suddenly walked out of the ultrasound room with red eyes. The first time she saw Shi Ye, she couldn't hold back and almost cried.

Shi Ye took two steps forward, took the person to a corner, hugged him and whispered comforting words.

"Don't cry, what's wrong, what happened?"

"Shi Ye..." Jiang Zhinian hiccuped while crying, "The doctor said that the baby's umbilical cord is wrapped around the neck twice..."

She imagined the scene of a little baby with its umbilical cord tightly around its neck... No, she didn't dare think about it anymore.

"Will the baby be unable to breathe? Will he be in danger?"

Shi Ye gently patted Jiang Zhinian's back: "Didn't I tell you before that the baby doesn't breathe through the nose in the belly, she breathes through the umbilical cord and won't be strangled to death by her own umbilical cord."

If the umbilical cord is really strangling the neck, it means that the umbilical cord is being squeezed, which affects the baby's breathing and fetal heart rate, and may bring about bad possibilities.

"Ah, then, then the umbilical cord around the neck..."

"When the doctor used ultrasound, all he saw was a certain section, which showed the umbilical cord was located in front of the baby's neck."

However, in this case, it is most likely that the clothes are wrapped around the neck in a very loose state, not tightly wrapped, so this kind of clothes wrapped around the neck is just a danger warning, not a real danger.

Many babies can figure it out on their own before they are born.

“What if I can’t get out?”

"If it can't be bypassed, then it depends on the situation. The doctor will conduct a risk assessment before giving birth."

In fact, the umbilical cord around the neck is not what the doctors are really worried about. What they are afraid of is the umbilical cord flipping, but there is no need to tell Jiang Zhinian about this and scare him.

Jiang Zhinian finally relaxed. God knows how scared she was when she heard the doctor say in a very serious tone, "The umbilical cord is wrapped around the neck for two weeks."

"By the way, the doctor also said that my amniotic fluid seems to be a little low."

"Then drink more soy milk. Next time you check the amniotic fluid, it's usually not a big problem."

"Okay, the doctor also said that we'll start routine fetal heart monitoring from now on."

The two of them walked out slowly arm in arm, like the most ordinary couple in the hospital, looking forward to the birth of their child.

"Shi Ye, I'm still 7 weeks away from full term..."

"nervous?"

"A little bit, but it's more of anticipation and reluctance."

I look forward to the arrival of my baby, but at the same time I am reluctant to give up this pregnancy journey full of memories and longings.

Looking back now, it seemed that she and Shi Ye had experienced many things. They were not thrilling stories, but they were precious in her life.

"Shi Ye, do you want the baby to come out earlier or later?"

She had heard that many slow-paced babies would repeat a grade and not come out after their due date.

"It's better to give birth earlier. If you give birth later, the amniotic fluid will become cloudy."

"Is that the only reason?" Jiang Zhinian said deliberately, dissatisfied, "I thought you would say that you wanted to meet the baby earlier and hear her call you daddy earlier."

Shi Ye knew that he should smile at this time. In fact, he did smile, but when he saw the crystal-clear glass of the hospital gate out of the corner of his eye, he could see the reluctance in his smile.

Not to mention the sensitive Jiang Zhinian.

He originally thought Jiang Zhinian would ask him something, but in the end she just smiled sweetly and rested her head in his arms.
