But now if there is a doctor who can make her suffer less and without causing any harm to the baby, Tian Tian is naturally willing to be treated.
After hearing what Tian Tian said, Gu Zhao felt that she was right, so he helped Tian Tian to the Chinese medicine clinic on the first floor.
Tian Tian felt relieved when she saw that the old Chinese doctor was a man in his sixties or seventies, with a thin body, but a particularly energetic and kind face.
She had a stereotype about Chinese medicine. She always thought that the older the Chinese medicine practitioner was, the better his medical skills must be. So when she saw a doctor of such an old age, she thought she must be a good Chinese medicine practitioner.
However, compared with other clinics in the hospital, the Chinese medicine clinic seemed very empty. Before Tian Tian came, there was no one else in the clinic except this old Chinese doctor.
"Doctor, my wife is pregnant, but she's still having a fever. I want her to take some antipyretic medicine, but I'm worried it might harm the baby. Can you prescribe some medicine that won't harm either the mother or the baby?" Gu Zhao helped Tian Tian sit down and said to the doctor worriedly.
The doctor motioned for Tian Tian to put her hand on it, and Tian Tian looked at her curiously and took her pulse.
After a while, the doctor let go of Tian Tian's hand and asked Tian Tian to stick out her tongue for him to see. Tian Tian obediently did so.
“The fever is quite severe, but if it is reduced quickly, the medicine will definitely harm the body.
"Actually, fever is also a self-protection process of the human body. I suggest you go home and reduce the fever. For example, drink more ginger soup or rub cold water on your hands, feet and armpits. If possible, I can prescribe some medicine to help you stay pregnant!"
Gu Zhao looked at the doctor with some concern, "But she suddenly had such a high fever, is she really okay?"
"It's really nothing. He might have been too carsick today and his body has been in an uncomfortable state, so he has a slight cold and a fever. As long as he goes home and has a good rest for two days, the fever will go away," said the doctor.
Tian Tian was in very good health. Apart from a cold, she had no other illnesses, which surprised the doctor.
In fact, people nowadays have some physical illnesses to some extent, because everyone will get angry, and anger will have some effects on the body, but Tian Tian really has no such impact at all.
Tian Tian's fever this time was entirely because of Tian Tian. She was pregnant, and her body and hormones had undergone very big changes. Her body was not somewhat adapted to these changes, so she had such a high fever.
The fever will go away after a few days when your body adapts to this change.
Besides, catching a cold is not really a big problem. It’s the change of seasons and it’s normal to catch a cold. There’s no need to take medicine.
Moreover, all medicines are toxic to some extent. As long as it is not a serious illness, it is best to take less medicine, and you can make up for it with diet therapy.
Gu Zhao was still a little worried, but Tian Tian nodded. She still had great trust in traditional Chinese medicine.
"Is it enough to just use the usual methods to reduce fever? Can I drink ginger soup or soak my feet? Will it affect the baby in my belly?" Tian Tian talked a lot.
"Yes! These will not have any impact. Children are not as fragile as you think. They can live their lives normally. However, there are still some things you need to pay attention to in the early stages of pregnancy!" The Chinese medicine doctor was very kind.
"I heard from them that if you are pregnant, you can't eat things like coix seed and hawthorn!"
"In fact, these things can be eaten, but the amount should be paid attention to. You can't eat too much. However, no matter what it is, if you eat too much at once, it will not be good for your body. So it's better to be normal. Just eat when you should eat and drink when you should drink." said the Chinese medicine doctor.
"But I see you've been here for two months already. You still need to be careful in the first three months. Try not to do strenuous exercise, and don't go up to high places to get things, let alone lift heavy objects. But you can't just sit there and do nothing. You need to move around more often."
"I see that this is your first child, so there are some things you should pay attention to. Don't eat too much and let your weight grow too large. Otherwise, the baby will be too big and it will be difficult for you to give birth. You should also eat less sweet things! Eat more vegetables, fruits, and meat." The doctor advised.
Tian Tian nodded seriously after listening to this. Gu Zhao beside her had already started taking a pen to write down all of this.
In general, Tian Tian summed it up in one sentence: you can do things, but in moderation, don't eat too much, and exercise in moderation. You can't treat pregnancy as a major threat. Instead, you should live your life as usual and keep a good mood.
"I understand!" Tian Tian nodded seriously, "Doctor, do you really not need to prescribe a pregnancy-preserving drug or something?"
The old Chinese doctor couldn't help but laugh. "No, medicine is poisonous. The baby in your belly is very healthy. There is no need to drink these things to burden your body."
After he finished speaking, the old Chinese doctor lowered his head and wrote a note, which he handed to Tian Tian. "I suggest you go to the obstetrics and gynecology department. The obstetricians and gynecologists will give you some nourishing things for your body, such as brown sugar and soybeans. Although you can't use them now, you should always prepare them. Pregnancy is like eating for two, so you still have to prepare some things."
Gu Zhao nodded after listening to this, and Tian Tian also nodded, knowing that the old Chinese doctor wanted them to take the tonic back home.
Tian Tian thought this old Chinese doctor was quite interesting, and thought she would come here for her next prenatal checkup.
What Tian Tian found strange was that before coming to the old Chinese doctor's office, he felt very uncomfortable. After leaving the Chinese medicine clinic, Tian Tian felt particularly energetic. Although he still had a fever, at least he was not as weak as before.
She said that she could now run 800 meters, but Gu Zhao was worried and still helped Tian Tian walk.
Tian Tian was also seriously analyzing with Gu Zhao why she became so energetic.
She felt that she had no strength just now, maybe it was because she scared herself. Now she heard the old Chinese doctor say that she was very healthy, just having caught a minor cold. Tian Tian was not as tense as before, and her body naturally got better.
When they arrived at the gynecological examination room, the doctor immediately arranged for Tian Tian to undergo several examinations. Fortunately, the conditions and facilities of their hospital in the provincial capital were much better than those of the county hospital.
But it certainly wasn't like today, where there are so many medical facilities.
