Lu Yunsheng rushed back to the family compound as quickly as possible. As soon as he reached the gate of his yard, he heard Jiang Yan crying, and he hurried into the house.
Jiang Yan's face turned pale from the pain. Lu Yunsheng took two steps at a time and came to the bedside. He held Jiang Yan's hand and said in a panic, "Wife, I'm here. Don't be afraid."
Lin Meixiang was relieved when Lu Yunsheng arrived. "Is the doctor here?"
"Here they come. I'm fast and they're a little behind me."
"You look after Jiang Yan. I'll go help everyone get ready."
"Thank you for your hard work, Mom."
Lin Meixiang left the room, and Lu Yunsheng looked at Jiang Yan with heartache, wishing he could feel the pain for her.
Jiang Yan said aggrievedly: "Lu Yunsheng, I won't have any more children in the future."
"No, no, no, I'm going to get sterilized when you're out of confinement. Even if God comes, I won't have any more children."
Lu Yunsheng bent down and kissed Jiang Yan's forehead. It was the first time he saw his wife looking so weak.
Thinking of those women who died of childbirth, Lu Yunsheng felt a little panic and regretful. If he had known this would be the case, he would rather not have given birth.
"Yeah, that hurts."
While speaking, Jiang Yan had another contraction, and Lu Yunsheng had to comfort her in a low voice.
Not long after, the midwife and the nurse came in hurriedly. The female doctor looked at Lu Yunsheng and said, "Captain Lu, please go out. We are here to help."
"I'm here with my wife, just pretend I'm not here."
The female doctor hesitated, "Are you sure? The birthing process may be unacceptable."
Lu Yunsheng chuckled, "I am a soldier who has been to the battlefield. Is there anything in this world that I cannot accept? I have to accompany my wife when she gives birth."
Jiang Yan also spoke up, "Let him stay."
Next, the doctor put a quilt on Jiang Yan's legs, asked her to roll up her legs and spread them apart, and checked the situation.
"Your cervix isn't dilated enough. Don't push hard for now. Conserve your strength and follow my instructions later."
"Don't worry, don't be stressed. Although they are triplets, they were well taken care of during pregnancy. The babies are not too big, so there will be no problem."
During the long wait, the intervals between contractions became shorter and shorter, and the pain became more and more intense. Jiang Yan also began to exert force following the doctor's instructions, and the whole room was filled with a strong smell of blood.
Lu Yunsheng hugged Jiang Yan, his brows twisted into a knot.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he really wouldn't have known that childbirth was so difficult for women. Although he had heard people talk about it before, it was still different from seeing it with his own eyes.
He also made up his mind not to have a second child.
"ah--"
Jiang Yan's screams were heard from the room.
Thanks to the previous preparations, the three children were all small in size, the fetal positions were normal, and the delivery went smoothly.
Soon, a loud baby cry was heard, and the first child was born. But the doctor did not relax, as there were still two children. What she was most worried about now was that the mother did not have enough physical strength.
But Jiang Yan's condition was unexpectedly good, and the children did not suffer any trouble, and came out one after another.
After two consecutive cries, everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief.
The doctor smiled and said, "Congratulations, all three children are healthy, two brothers and one sister."
"Thank you very much."
Lu Yunsheng was completely relieved. He looked at Jiang Yan in his arms and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work, my wife."
"Finally I'm free."
After saying that, Jiang Yan fell asleep peacefully. She was almost dead tired.
Seeing Jiang Yan stop moving, Lu Yunsheng panicked immediately. Then the doctor smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. She's just tired. She will wake up naturally after a good sleep. The delivery went smoothly this time. The placenta was completely detached and there was no heavy bleeding. This is the first time I've encountered such a smooth delivery."
Afterwards, the doctor cleaned the three children and wrapped them in swaddling clothes that had been prepared long ago. Lin Meixiang took the children to her room next door, and He Hongxiu and others also helped to look after the children.
Lu Yunsheng asked the nurse for warm water and cleaned Jiang Yan's body. His wife liked cleanliness and would not sleep well if she was sticky.
After changing Jiang Yan into clean clothes and clean sheets and quilt covers, Lu Yunsheng stayed by the bed, his eyes always on the sleeping Jiang Yan.
This makes the doctors and nurses on call envious.
"Captain Lu is really great. He accompanied his wife throughout the entire delivery process. Not only was he not frightened, he even cleaned her up himself without showing any disdain."
"Why can't I meet such a good man?"
"Come on, do you have the ability of Comrade Jiang Yan? I heard that the Eighth and Second Regiments are stationed here to protect her. What kind of treatment is this!"
"Even if you have that ability, you don't have that appearance. Comrade Jiang Yan is truly the most beautiful woman I have ever seen."
The doctor shook his head and said, "Don't be envious. Pack up and get ready to leave."
"Yes, Director."
The nurses nodded repeatedly, and the doctor walked into the secondary bedroom next door and gave the children a comprehensive examination.
Jiang Yan was less than nine months pregnant with triplets, and each baby weighed less than four pounds. Lin Meixiang was a little nervous and asked hurriedly, "How is the situation?"
"Don't worry, sister. The children are all healthy. Although they are less than nine months old, their weight and duration are considered full-term for triplets."
"Raise them well and they will have three healthy and lovely children."
"That's good. That's good."
Lin Meixiang finally put her mind at ease. The triplets were born smoothly and they are all healthy. God bless!
"Doctor, is there anything I should pay attention to next? How is my daughter-in-law? How can I nourish her body?"
"Don't worry. She gave birth naturally, so there won't be any major problems. Let her rest well for the next month and stay in a good mood. I'll make a list of dietary supplements for you later, so try to follow it."
"Excuse me, doctor."
Lin Meixiang agreed repeatedly, and the doctor smiled and said, "You really are a family. You are so polite when you speak."
After listing the things that needed to be paid attention to and the dietary recommendations for taking care of the pregnant woman on a piece of paper and handing it to Lin Meixiang, the doctor left with the nurse.
