Zhao slowly moved back into the house, smiling as she muttered to herself, "Don't worry, I'm about to give birth, the family is going to have a new member."
The white dot is intelligent, and everyone often talks to it.
Perhaps sensing something, Bai Diandian was no longer so worried.
Zhao returned to the bed and slowly sat down. She felt much better, and the pain was much less.
Having a child is a long process, and she has made all the preparations.
She's ready to be a mother.
Her hand gently rested on her abdomen, and she thought to herself: My dear child, you really know how to pick a day. Today is a good day indeed.
The weather was sunny, not damp or cold, and it gradually warmed up.
When Zhang heard Qin Jin'an calling her, she immediately understood and ran home.
Qin Jin'an also realized that his grandmother's fertility palace was glowing, which meant that his aunt was about to give birth.
As soon as they got home, Zhang went into the house and asked Zhao, "How are you? Does it hurt?"
Zhao shook her head: "Mother, I feel fine, but I was startled when some amniotic fluid came out just now."
Zhang and Qin had already told her what the symptoms of impending labor were, so she wasn't scared when her water broke, nor did she think she had urinated.
"It's okay, your water broke and it'll be over soon. Mom will go boil some water and wash you first, otherwise you'll feel uncomfortable if you don't wash for a month after giving birth."
Zhang smiled and patted Zhao's hand, then got up and went out.
Qin Jin'an stood beside Zhao Shi and said, "Aunt, would you like me to bring you some good luck?"
Qin Jin'an didn't know what childbirth was like, so she asked Zhao if she needed good luck.
"No need, Yu Bao, you're still young. You'll understand when you're older. Every woman has to go through this. I'm already prepared. Besides, your aunt is very lucky. You haven't eaten yet, go and eat."
Zhao's eyes were very gentle as she reached out and pinched Qin Jin'an's soft cheek.
She doesn't need anything; she just wants her child to be well.
As her child grew day by day in her womb, she understood Qin's heart more and more.
Every mother hopes her child will be safe and healthy.
Qin Jin'an didn't understand Zhao's feelings at the moment, but she sensed that Zhao had unlimited potential and that she radiated a kind of tenacious brilliance.
She often saw this kind of radiance in her mother, Qin.
Qin Jin'an reached out and touched Zhao's belly, whispering, "Baby, baby, your mother loves you very much."
Zhao's belly moved slightly, as if the child inside her was responding.
Zhao's gaze was extremely gentle.
After Zhang finished lighting the fire, Qin Jin'an went to watch it, while Zhang went out to call the midwife.
There are midwives in the village who are skilled at childbirth.
She was old and experienced, and many people asked her to help. Everyone called her Granny Wang.
When Zhang arrived at her door and told her, she smiled and led her daughter-in-law out together.
"Your grandson knows how to pick a day; today is a very auspicious day."
Granny Wang said with a smile.
Mrs. Zhang smiled and said, "The addition of a new baby is a wonderful thing; every day is a good day."
"There's no rush for her first pregnancy. Her baby is in the right position, she's so lucky, she won't suffer much."
With a smile, Granny Wang added, "You can never have too many nice words, because everyone likes to hear nice things."
Some of my family members work in the workshop.
Zhang smiled and agreed.
Back home, Granny Wang and her daughter-in-law, He, helped prepare water.
She saw Zhang helping Zhao wash her body.
Qin Jin'an kept watch over the fire, ensuring there was always hot water in the pot.
Mr. He is preparing the things he needs.
Qin Jin'an saw that there were also scissors and asked, puzzled, "Auntie, what are these for?"
"It's used to cut the umbilical cord, and sometimes it's used to cut the birth canal..."
After saying that without thinking, Ms. He quickly patted her mouth, wondering why she was telling the child this.
"Auntie, what is the birth canal? What is the umbilical cord?"
Qin Jin'an had never seen anyone give birth before, and he was immediately filled with curiosity.
She has seen the ugliest side of humanity, but she has never seen a person born.
She wanted to know if she could see, but most of the time she wouldn't use her divine power.
Madam He was in a dilemma, but seeing Qin Jin'an's eagerness to learn, she couldn't refuse and didn't want to lie to her.
After thinking for a moment, she said, "Little Fish Baby, it's like this, childbirth is like walking through the gates of hell for a woman."
“Every baby is born at a different size and in a different position. Normal babies are head down, but sometimes a naughty one is feet down... So sometimes we have to cut open the birth canal. You may not understand this now, but you will when you grow up.”
“We women have to go through excruciating pain to bring new life into the world. Your mother gave birth to you in the same way. And between the child and the mother, there is an umbilical cord, which is cut after birth, which means that the child has officially become an independent person.”
He spoke gently, and Qin Jin'an listened attentively.
Madam He smiled gently at Qin Jin'an, then carried the food and left the kitchen.
Since it was Zhao's first pregnancy, it wasn't going to happen so quickly. It wasn't until she had washed and wrung out her hair that the pain in her stomach started to become more frequent.
At this time, the meat broth in the kitchen was ready, the meat was tender, and millet was added, making it perfect for Zhao's meal.
He was massaging her with the method taught by Wang Po to relieve her pain.
Granny Wang taught this skill to He Shi simply because she also had small hands.
Zhang was right there, feeding Zhao meat broth porridge when she wasn't in pain.
"Eat more, it will still be several hours. You are so lucky, you don't have to worry about anything. Get plenty of rest, and you can give birth in one go when you give birth."
Granny Wang smiled kindly as she spoke to Zhao.
Zhao's eyes reddened, and she nodded.
It's impossible for her not to feel anxious; she was also afraid.
But with such a good mother-in-law and such a good midwife, all her worries were soothed.
Midway through, both Granny Wang and her daughter-in-law, Madam He, went to eat meat soup noodles.
Qin Shi and Qin Tianhai returned in the afternoon, so there was no shortage of people at home.
Qin Tianhai efficiently killed the chicken, and Qin Shi started stewing the soup and also came into the room to help.
After examining the baby, Mrs. He smiled and said, "It's almost there. I can already see the baby's head. Listen to me count, and when I tell you to push, push."
With the regular contractions, He began to direct Zhao's delivery.
The pain made Zhao panic, but her maternal love filled her with strength.
Both Mrs. He and Granny Wang were very experienced. Every time Mrs. Zhao exerted herself, they would praise her, saying, "Very good, you did a great job. Take a break and continue next time."
Outside the door, Qin Jin'an stood obediently, his expression solemn.
Qin Tianhai patted Qin Jin'an's hair: "Is Yu Bao scared?"
Qin Jin'an nodded and then shook his head.
Giving birth must be very painful; my aunt was already crying out in pain.
"Coming into this world is not easy, and no words can fully express the greatness of a mother. Yu Bao, you must take good care of your mother," Qin Tianhai said to Qin Jin'an with a gentle and kind expression.
