When they arrived, Dr. Jiang was talking about caesarean sections.
In fact, military hospitals have been able to perform this operation for several years, and the technology is quite mature.
But the older generation has more traditional ideas, and most people generally believe that recovery from a normal birth is quick and that one can get out of bed and move around after giving birth.
It will not affect your chances of having a second or third child later on.
A caesarean section requires you to defecate on your stomach, which can easily damage your qi.
Some people also believe that during a normal birth, the squeezing of the birth can expel the amniotic fluid from the baby's lungs.
This will not only reduce the probability of choking or pneumonia in the future, but also make the child smarter.
Finally, there is the issue of cost.
If the baby is born naturally, the cost of three days of hospitalization and assisted delivery will be only five or six yuan at most.
Not only were these expenses fully reimbursed by the army, but after giving birth, the mother would receive a ticket for one pound of brown sugar, ten eggs, 10 pieces of cotton cloth, and a certificate for being a heroic mother.
In addition, there are 56 days of maternity leave.
But if it is a caesarean section, not only will all the expenses have to be paid by yourself, but the rewards for having a child will either not be available or will be reduced by half.
Even during the days of hospitalization, 30% of the salary will be deducted as sick leave.
All these reasons combined have led to the fact that no woman has chosen to have a caesarean section in recent years.
No matter how critical the mother's condition is, the patient's family members insist that she can only have a natural birth and not a cesarean section.
Of course, Dr. Jiang told them this just so they could have an idea in their minds.
If it can go smoothly, it will definitely be a normal birth.
But Comrade Jiang was pregnant with twins after all. If there was any emergency during the delivery, she might have to switch from natural birth to cesarean section.
After explaining all the details, Dr. Jiang took out a "Surgical Risk Notice".
"You all know the situation now. We can discuss it later. If you agree, please sign below."
Although he said so, Dr. Jiang did not give the notice to anyone else, but handed it to Jiang Si personally.
Life is hers.
Whether it is a natural birth or a cesarean section, it should be decided by the mother herself.
"Thank you, Doctor Jiang."
After saying this, Jiang Si handed the notice to Huo Tingzhou.
Because she knew enough, she didn't even ask.
Sure enough, Huo Tingzhou took it without any hesitation and signed the word "agree" on it.
"Doctor Jiang, whether it's a natural birth or a caesarean section, please save my wife under any circumstances."
Doctor Jiang nodded: "Don't worry, we will."
After putting the notice away, she stood up and said, "I'm on duty tonight. If you need anything, please come to me anytime."
She's used to it anyway.
"I'm sorry to trouble you, Doctor Jiang." Huo Tingzhou sent the person to the door, stayed for a while and then returned to the ward.
At this time, my third uncle was already sitting in front of the bed.
More than 20 years ago, on a night like this, Xiaoman (Jiang's mother)'s water broke.
When they received the news and rushed to the hospital, Sisi had already died.
A small, pink one.
It feels like a ball of cotton when held in my arms.
He held the child in his arms and teased him for a while, and the child smiled at him.
From that moment on, he made up his mind to protect this little girl for the rest of his life.
In the blink of an eye, Mianqituanzi grew up.
Then Huo took it back home with the pot and basin.
Now, Mianqi Tuanzi is also going to be a mother.
Time flies by so fast...
Thinking of this, Third Uncle's tears fell uncontrollably.
Pregnant women are naturally sentimental, especially now.
Seeing my third uncle, who had been a powerful figure all his life, crying like this.
Jiang Si's heart also ached.
"Third Uncle——"
Before she finished speaking, Jiang Si gasped in pain, "Hiss—"
"Sisi, how are you? Are you in pain..."
"A little bit, but I can still bear it."
After taking a deep breath, Jiang Si said half-jokingly.
"Third Uncle, you can't cry anymore!"
"What if the two babies follow my example and become crybabies in the future?"
Upon hearing this, Third Uncle wiped away his tears and said, "Don't cry, don't cry."
He is about to become a great-grandfather, so he has to set a good example for his children.
"That's more like it."
After saying that, Jiang Si glanced at the three people in the room who had tense expressions.
"It's only less than a finger's width open now. It's still early. You all should find a place to sit down."
Everyone surrounded her, and she felt nervous just looking at them.
