Chapter 3130 Launch
Bai Shan took out a long cloth, looked it over, and asked in confusion, "What is this for? For bathing?"
Xiao Qian took it quickly, folded it up and said, "This is for the child to use to wipe his body after taking a bath."
She said, "It's still cold now. It will take a long time for the weather to warm up after Manbao gives birth. You must wrap yourself up well when you come out of the water, otherwise you will get a cold if the wind blows."
Zhou Man was also surprised. She had seen many newborns, but she had never taken care of one herself. At most, she could join in the fun and give some suggestions from a doctor's perspective. How could she take these small details into consideration?
"Is that enough? Do I have to change clothes or something?"
Zheng had also found a lot of good things. Upon hearing this, she smiled and said to her, "Don't worry, your sister-in-law and I have prepared all of these. We've prepared three of these cloths in different colors. We'll give the child whichever one she likes."
Zhou Man exclaimed "Wow" and asked curiously, "What colors are there?"
They were talking animatedly when the gate to the courtyard was pushed open with a bang. A guard ran in and said, "Master Zhou, the princess has a stomachache and is about to give birth!"
Zhou Man's eyes lit up, and he turned around and was about to go, "Have you sent someone to call the midwife?"
"Someone has already gone."
Xiao Qian was startled and pulled her back, saying, "You're about to give birth, and you still want to go?"
Zhou Man smiled and comforted her, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. Other pregnant women can't watch other people give birth because they are afraid that they will be scared. But I have delivered so many babies and even performed laparotomies. I won't be scared."
Xiao Qian finally let go, but supported her instead, "I'll go with you to take a look."
Zheng was anxious for a moment, and quickly said, "I, I'll go too."
Bai Shan turned around and said, "Go to the post station and ask the two female doctors to come and help."
There is strength in numbers. If it is difficult to get started after completing the full week, we can still use them.
The servant agreed and rushed towards the post station.
The two families lived not far from each other, so Zhou Man arrived quickly. Yin Huo lived next door, so he had already arrived and was sitting in the living room drinking tea. Bai Erlang was anxiously running around, but Princess Mingda was sitting on a chair beside her and eating noodles with an unchanged expression.
Bai Shan and Xiao Qianshi supported Zhou Man in from both sides. Seeing this scene, they couldn't help but look at the anxious Bai Erlang, "Didn't you say the baby was about to be born? It can't be you, right?"
Bai Erlang wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, "Mingda has a stomachache. Nanny said she's about to give birth, but she's not in a hurry at all."
Yin Huo took a leisurely sip of tea and said, "I told you it's just labor pains. It's still a long way from birth."
Bai Shan smiled and asked him, "Then why did you come here?"
Yin Huo sighed, "He was screaming so miserably that I was startled when I heard it from next door. I rushed over to see what was happening, and then he grabbed me and wouldn't let me leave."
Mingda put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, smiled, and said apologetically: "I scared you."
Zhou Man sat down and asked her, "Does it still hurt now?"
"It still hurts a little, but it's not too severe and bearable."
Zhou Man exhaled, "Then we should wait. Let them clean up the room. I'll stay here tonight."
She still felt her pulse and her belly, and when she confirmed that it was just labor pains, she felt relieved and said to the palace maids, "Pay attention tonight. If your water breaks, call us immediately."
"yes."
Everyone simply stayed here at night. Bai Erlang was the most restless. He slept on the couch at night and got up every half an hour to take a look into the house.
Mingda was already too sleepy due to the contractions to sleep, and now he couldn't sleep anymore. The two of them stared at each other.
Bai Shanze and Zhou Man slept in the guest room. She could only sleep on her side, but her back also hurt. Bai Shan massaged her and coaxed her softly, "Go to sleep quickly. You may have to get up early tomorrow, so you can't miss out on sleep."
Zhou Man slowly fell asleep amid his gentle soothing voice. She slept until the second half of the night and gently got up to go to the bathroom. Bai Shan woke up with a start, got up and supported her, saying, "This is not home. I'll light the light. Wait a moment to avoid bumping into anything."
It was still a little cold at night. When Zhou Man came out with his clothes on, Bai Shan leaned against the screen and almost fell asleep. He drowsily supported Zhou Man and was about to go back. When they reached the bed, there was a sudden Duang sound in the silence. They were both startled and almost fell on the bed.
Bai Shan held Zhou Man's arms tightly with both hands to prevent her from falling back.
There was silence outside for a moment, and then all sorts of noises started to rise. There were voices of people kneeling down to apologize, there were also shouts and curses, and there were even people running towards this side...
Zhou Man guessed it as soon as he heard the noise and said quickly, "Maybe Mingda is about to give birth."
Bai Shan picked up the coat and put it on her. As soon as they were dressed, they heard Jiulan and Xibing say outside, "My dear, my lady, someone is coming from the princess's side."
Bai Shan opened the door and helped Man Bao out, "Go prepare a cup of warm water. My wife needs to warm her stomach. Ask the kitchen staff to prepare some noodles and porridge."
Jiulan agreed and hurried there, while Xibing helped Zhou Man to the main courtyard.
The midwife had already arrived and when she saw Zhou Man she said, "The water has broken, the baby is about to be born."
Bai Erlang stood aside, looking around, swallowing nervously and asking, "Is it serious? No, I mean, is it going smoothly? That's not right..."
He slapped his mouth and asked again: "Do you want to give birth now?"
Mingda was in great pain. She barely turned her head to look at him and instructed the palace maid, "Let him out."
When the nanny heard this, she immediately reached out and pushed him out.
Zhou Man took a look and comforted her, "Don't worry, we'll take it slowly."
Then she asked someone to bring a needle bag, and she gave her an injection to relieve the pain, and gossiped with her, "Why did you kick him out?"
"It's too ugly. I don't want him to see it."
Zhou Man smiled, turned around and said to the palace maid, "Close the window outside as well, so that he won't be able to peek outside."
The palace maid left, cutting off Bai Erlang's last chance.
Zhou Man gave her an injection and withdrew the needle when she felt less pain. At this time, her cervix was open, so she took a step back and let the midwife come forward.
The midwife came forward and took a look before she cried out, "Ouch!" "Princess, don't be nervous. If you get nervous, all the pain you've endured will be in vain. Relax, relax."
Mingda looked at Zhou Man in a panic, with hope in his eyes.
The nanny and the head palace maid were also very anxious.
"I'll do it." Zhou Man held her waist and stepped forward, asking the midwife to step back. Seeing that her amniotic fluid was decreasing, Zhou Man pressed on her body a few times, causing her to cry out in pain, but her body soon relaxed.
Zhou Man comforted her again, "Don't be afraid, I'm right here. Come, do as we practiced privately before, take a deep breath first..."
"Hold your breath, hold it, push hard, yes, sink down..."
Zhou Man kept watching her and encouraged her, "Very good, you are the smartest one, and you used your strength correctly. Let's try again..."
"I see the baby's head coming. Look, I felt it right. Your fetal position is very correct. Let's try again..."
Zhou Man held the baby in her hands and slowly helped it out. She said happily, "It's born!"
