Gu Qingmeng promised Fu Yu that he would take a dog back to Peijiagou, which made Gu Guodong and his brother very sad. The three of them hurriedly packed two sets of clothes and followed him.
Seeing that she was the only one left at home, Gu Qingmeng packed a few clothes, took out the milk powder and bottles, and also prepared small clothes and a quilt for the baby in Su Xue's belly.
Since it was summer, Gu Qingmeng made the small quilts with cotton gauze. In addition to the small quilts, she also made some small towels and diaper rings.
Su Xue had prepared some baby products in the space, but they were mainly food and drinks, and the most numerous were diapers, but unfortunately the diapers could not be taken out and used.
She had no choice but to do it herself. She had prepared a lot of things for the delicate face. It could be said that Gu Qingmeng had prepared everything that was necessary and unnecessary. When she packed up her suitcase, it was full.
Because August 1st was approaching and all units were very busy, only Gu Qingmeng and Pei Xiaohua accompanied Su Xue to the hospital the next day.
At this time, there were very few people waiting to give birth in the hospital. Since Pei Xinghe had informed her colleagues in advance, they went straight to the obstetrics department when they arrived at the municipal hospital.
The director of obstetrics is the wife of Pei Xinghe's colleague. Because of her background, they immediately arranged a ward for them. They were afraid that they would be disturbed by the noise, so they arranged a double room for them.
Now they are the only ones living in the ward.
"I'll try not to have anyone else stay in this ward. Maternity leave and I'll check on you."
The director of obstetrics was surnamed Tian. Gu Qingmeng was polite in thanking him, but she was already thinking about what thank-you gift to give him.
"The fetus is in a good position and the baby is being well taken care of. If you have any questions, you can talk to the nurse or you can come to me directly."
Director Tian said this to Gu Qingmeng. She knew that this woman was the wife of her husband's colleague. She heard that her family was from Beijing? They must be very rich.
She looked well dressed.
"Thank you so much! We don't know how to thank you enough." Gu Qingmeng smiled and thanked others.
"You're welcome. My Liang Fengshou has a good relationship with your husband. Let's just treat each other like relatives. I'll take you to complete the hospitalization procedures!"
Director Tian glanced at Su Xue's belly, smiled and said nothing more.
When Gu Qingmeng saw Director Tian's eyes, her heart skipped a beat and she quickly took her bag and went out with her.
People say that they are relatives, so Gu Qingmeng naturally would not offend the other person. After a while, she started calling her "Sister Tian" all the time.
After completing the hospitalization procedures, Gu Qingmeng followed Director Tian to her office.
"Sister Tian, do you have something to say to me?"
Gu Qingmeng felt that she, as a birth companion, was more nervous than Su Xue, who was giving birth herself. She became extremely nervous at the slightest movement.
"I shouldn't have told you this today, but we know each other. This woman is taking such good care of the baby! I'm afraid it might be difficult to deliver? What if... I mean what if there's an emergency and she might have to do a C-section."
Director Tian tactfully mentioned the harm of caesarean section and the cost of the operation.
Gu Qingmeng knew that it was likely that Su Xue would have to have a caesarean section. The cost was a small matter, and she didn't think it would affect the birth of her next child.
She could wait a few years before having a second child. She thought Su Xue didn't want a second child?
"I understand. Thank you, Director Tian! I will communicate with the woman's husband."
"The woman's husband should be present on the day of delivery, as his signature is required for the caesarean section."
Director Tian didn't expect Gu Qingmeng to accept it so quickly! Usually, she had to spend a lot of effort to communicate with the family about the caesarean section, and the family members might not sign in the end.
Many women died of childbirth complications, and when Director Tian met the open-minded family members, he subconsciously said more.
"The recovery from a caesarean section is a little slower, but it won't have much impact on having a second child two or three years later. Just have regular checkups during the later stages of pregnancy."
Gu Qingmeng listened attentively. It was half an hour later when she left Director Tian's office.
Seeing that it was almost noon, she returned to the ward, took her lunch box and went out to get food. The weather was hot and Gu Qingmeng didn't get the braised pork because she was worried that Su Xue wouldn't be able to eat it.
I bought three pounds of cabbage and pork steamed dumplings and gave one pound to Director Tian. She refused several times, but finally couldn't resist Gu Qingmeng's enthusiasm and accepted the dumplings!
When Gu Qingmeng returned, she saw Su Xue chewing on beef jerky, with a half-eaten pear on the table next to her.
"Don't look at me. Why should I control my food intake when I'm about to give birth? He can't grow a pound a day in my belly."
Su Xue is extremely happy now. She is finally going to give birth. As for whether the father of the child will come to accompany her to give birth, she doesn’t care at all. As long as her best friend is there, it’s fine.
Best friends are much more reliable than men.
Gu Qingmeng:... She was actually speechless. At noon, the three of them had a simple meal of dumplings. Pei Xiaohua went to wash the lunch box. Gu Qingmeng looked at Su Xue's stomach and fell into deep thought.
If it was a caesarean section, she would have to rent a house in the city and call Pei Weidong to tell him.
He repeatedly told Pei Weidong to watch Su Xue's mouth, but it was useless for the man, and the child eventually grew too big!
"What do you think of a C-section?"
Gu Qingmeng decided to give Su Xue a shot of prevention.
"Really? That would be great if I could have a caesarean section! Can it be done today?" Su Xue's eyes widened like bells when she heard about the caesarean section. She was so willing to have a caesarean section!
Gu Qingmeng: "Just wait! Only if you can't give birth can you switch to a cesarean section."
How can we have the right to choose at this time?
Now if Su Xue runs out and has a caesarean section, she will be regarded as a lunatic.
In the afternoon, Gu Qingmeng called Pei Weidong and went to the Housing Management Office to rent a house. Since it was a short-term rental, there were not many good houses. She looked at two houses and found them both very shabby and uninhabitable without cleaning them up.
The elder sister who took her to see the house was obviously very impatient, and Gu Qingmeng also knew that it was almost time to get off work.
"Big sister, that's all for today! Please help me find a house for rent in the next two days. I want a good one. I'll only rent it for two months. It's okay if it's a little more expensive. I won't let you work in vain. I'll come back to you in three days."
Gu Qingmeng put a two-jin food coupon in the hands of the lady at the Housing Management Office.
