Lei Tingjun and Ji Wanmei's Raising a Child Side Story (Part 2)
That day, taking advantage of the fact that things weren't too busy at the company...
Ji Wanmei suggested that the two of them drive to the city to go shopping and buy some pregnancy supplies to take back with them.
After all, both Lei Tingjun and Ji Wanmei were first-time parents, and their level of concern and anxiety about this matter far exceeded their own expectations.
Upon arriving at the mall, the two headed straight to the maternity and baby products section on the fourth floor.
The dazzling array of adorable baby and toddler products is truly overwhelming, with their adorable colors like red, blue, pink, and white.
Ji Wanmei and Lei Tingjun were both first-time parents and had very little experience with this matter.
The sales assistant came up to recommend items to them, and Ji Wanmei listened to the uses of each item and felt that she needed to have a set of each.
Ji Wanmei picked up an adorable pink baby bottle.
The handles of the baby bottle look like two elephant ears, with a chubby body and a round nipple. Just looking at it, you can almost imagine a soft and cuddly baby lying in swaddling clothes, cutely holding it and sucking.
There are also baby pillows and teething sticks. The teething sticks are shaped like a bone and are made of soft rubber with cute little tufts on them. The small pillows are only the size of two adult palms. They are tiny and soft to hold and can melt your heart.
Holding the items, Ji Wanmei winked at Lei Tingjun: "How about... we buy all of these?"
Lei Tingjun nodded: "We definitely need all of these things."
The two kept putting the selected items into the shopping cart. Since they didn't know yet whether it was a boy or a girl, they took one of each color: blue and pink.
The sales assistant said that newborn babies have very delicate skin, so bathing supplies need to be prepared separately, which is the case in many families abroad.
So, Ji Wanmei and Lei Tingjun bought a bunch of baby care products.
The salesperson also said that baby clothes, thermal shirts, swaddle blankets, towel blankets, and small cotton blankets all need to be used separately.
So, Ji Wanmei and Lei Tingjun put these items into their shopping cart.
In the end, one shopping cart wasn't enough to hold everything, so Lei Tingjun went to get another shopping cart to fit all the items they had chosen.
After paying the bill, the mall's sales staff personally helped them carry their items to the parking garage on the basement level. They filled the trunk with several large boxes before Ji Wanmei and Lei Tingjun drove back to Yueluyuan with satisfaction.
On the way back, Lei Tingjun wouldn't let Ji Wanmei drive anymore.
Now that Ji Wanmei is pregnant, Lei Tingjun is taking great care of her in everything. He not only doesn't let her drive, but even when they were riding the escalator in the mall just now, he held her tightly as if facing a formidable enemy.
The doctor said the baby was less than half a month old in her belly, and Ji Wanmei felt that Lei Tingjun's nervous reaction was a bit excessive.
But when she got home, she found out that something even more outrageous was yet to come.
...
When she goes to the restroom, Lei Tingjun will be waiting for her outside.
She wanted to eat an apple and was about to take it to the kitchen to wash it when Lei Tingjun quickly took the apple, washed it for her, peeled it, cut it into pieces and arranged them in a fruit bowl, and even thoughtfully prepared a small fork.
She planned to go to the garden to collect the dried clothes, check on the newly blooming flowers, and water them. Lei Tingjun immediately followed behind her, watered the flowers, and then collected all the clothes she could see, folding them neatly.
In short, she was not allowed to do any physical work that required manual labor.
After dinner, Ji Wanmei wanted to go to bed early, but Lei Tingjun took her outside for a walk, saying that the doctor said that pregnant women should move around more, which is good for their health.
Ji Wanmei: "..."
Then why won't you let me do anything!
Lei Tingjun, however, had his reasons and patiently explained to her, "That's different. The bathroom floor tiles are often wet and slippery, and I'm worried you might slip. Frequent contact with cold water can easily lead to uterine coldness. From now on, if you need to wash anything, either use warm water or I'll help you. Also, the hoes and shovels in the garden are sharp tools and very dangerous. You shouldn't touch those things anymore; I'll do it for you. But appropriate exercise every morning and after dinner is essential."
Ji Wanmei realized at this moment that Lei Tingjun's reaction to her pregnancy was really a bit too much.
She said helplessly, "My dear husband, I'm only in my first month of pregnancy. There are still nine months to go. If you don't let me do anything from now on, you'll have a very hard time for the next year, no, two years. Besides, I don't have any symptoms yet, and my belly hasn't even started to grow. Please don't be so strict with me about these trivial daily matters."
Lei Tingjun insisted, "No."
Ji Wanmei: "..."
But at this time, Ji Wanmei was unaware that by the second or third month, her pregnancy symptoms would gradually begin to appear.
The smell of meat makes her feel a subconscious nausea.
I feel nauseous when I wake up in the morning, and my appetite is not very good. I always feel tired and weak, and I just want to sleep.
Since becoming pregnant, I've delegated most of the company's tasks to my subordinates whenever possible.
Unless it's a meeting for a major decision, Ji Wanmei will attend in person; she spends most of her time at home resting and preparing for her pregnancy.
Lei Tingjun stayed with her almost day and night, and naturally noticed her morning sickness, which made him even more nervous.
He consulted many books on how to care for the fetus in early pregnancy and felt relieved to see that Ji Wanmei's reaction was a normal situation.
