"Me? What should I do?" Zhang Yuyan was a little confused by Qiu Yan's words, but she still wanted to save her sister.
"Your sister is currently having difficulty breathing. If you suck the amniotic fluid out of her mouth, you can save her."
You need to control the suction power carefully. If it's too weak, it won't suck anything out; if it's too strong, it will hurt the child.
"That's all?" It turns out that Qiu Yan had just done this to save her sister.
Without thinking, Zhang Yuyan followed Qiu Yan's advice and began to help her sister remove amniotic fluid mouth-to-mouth.
Madam Ding stared intently at Zhang Yuyan, her palm warm to the touch.
After several attempts, at the moment when Zhang Yuyan inhaled the foreign object from the child's mouth, finally...
Wow……
The child started crying.
However, the baby was too young to cry properly.
While Zhang Yuyan was happy, she suddenly felt nauseous.
What... does this taste like?
She gagged, quickly handed the child to her aunt, covered her mouth and nose, rushed out of the room, squatted down, and vomited.
What she inhaled included not only amniotic fluid, but also—meconium.
Qiu Yan glanced at Zhang Yuyan outside the house and immediately felt that she was a timely help; it was better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early.
Mrs. Ding held the child with joy and said excitedly:
"He's alive! The baby is alive! Qiu Yan, thank you for saving my child." In her heart, Qiu Yan was truly a peerless miracle doctor.
She wrapped the child tightly in the swaddle blanket she had prepared long ago.
Qiu Yan was finally relieved to see the child's bruised face turn rosy.
At Madam Ding's request, she wrote a tonic prescription for Madam Zhang and gave it to her maid, asking her to go out and buy the medicine.
Afterwards, she said goodbye to Madam Ding and prepared to leave.
Seeing Qiu Yan about to leave, Madam Ding glanced one last time at the baby in her arms and asked:
"Miss Qiu Yan, this baby is premature and not as easy to raise as a normal infant. Do you have any good ideas about this child?"
Qiu Yan thought for a moment and replied:
"Premature babies need to be kept warm, but the temperature should not be too high, otherwise it may cause coma, seizures, or convulsions."
In terms of feeding, breast milk is of course the best.
Also, it's important to prevent infection. This child seems to lack vitality, and her skin is quite thin, so you must be very gentle when dressing her or changing her diapers.
"Miss Qiu, you are this child's second parent." Madam Ding was truly grateful to Qiu Yan.
"Madam Ding, you flatter me. I was just doing my duty." Although Qiu Yan wasn't a healer, her purpose in studying medicine so diligently was to cure the sick and save lives.
Thinking about settling the consultation fee, Madam Ding took out all her money. "Miss Qiu, this is your consultation fee."
Qiu Yan took out a silver ingot from the money, returned the rest, said goodbye to Madam Ding, and left.
Sister Jiang must be getting impatient.
As Madam Ding watched Qiu Yan's departing figure, she thought to herself, "Miss Qiu is truly a good person. Not only does she possess genuine talent and learning, but she also has her own principles for living, free from greed and desire."
She glanced again at Zhang Yuyan, who was still vomiting uncontrollably outside, and sighed.
Sigh, this Yan'er, why is she so spoiled?
In terms of age, Zhang Yuyan is older than Qiu Yan, but in terms of maturity, she is far inferior.
Although Madam Ding had never given birth, she had seen newborn babies.
The baby in her arms looked much smaller than a normal infant, its tiny hands and feet curled up pitifully, appearing particularly weak.
