After the massage, Qin Zheng once again poured the hot water he had prepared in advance into the basin and applied a hot and wet towel to Xu Zhiyi's chest to help relieve congestion and promote milk secretion.
In the blink of an eye, a day passed, but Xu Zhiyi's milk production was not very good. In the end, Xu Zhiyi and Qin Zheng had no choice but to choose sucking.
Originally, he wanted to let the baby suck, but Qin Zheng refused to do it. Xu Zhiyi finally gave up and let Qin Zheng do it for him.
Afterwards, Qin Zheng did help Xu Zhiyi to resolve the issue.
Xu Zhiyi looked at Qin Zheng with a red face, especially when she saw the milky white mark at the corner of Qin Zheng's mouth, her face became even redder.
Because Xu Zhiyi had a normal birth and her physical condition was good, she stayed in the hospital for about three or four days before being discharged.
In fact, Qin Zheng originally wanted Xu Zhiyi to stay in the hospital for a few days, but Xu Zhiyi really didn't want to. In the end, Qin Zheng had no choice but to agree to Xu Zhiyi's request to be discharged from the hospital.
During the three or four days that Xu Zhiyi stayed in the hospital, she felt uncomfortable everywhere.
On the day after Xu Zhiyi's natural birth, with Qin Zheng's help, she urinated as she wished. After resting, she successfully started lactating with Qin Zheng's help. After lactating, she followed a regular feeding schedule, feeding every two to three hours, for a total of about eight to ten times within a 24-hour period.
On the day Xu Zhiyi gave birth, she was able to eat again. For the next three days, she ate millet porridge, chicken soup, or pig's trotters under Qin Zheng's watchful eye.
In less than three days, Xu Zhiyi was almost vomiting from drinking too much.
Xu Zhiyi sometimes thought that Qin Zheng was taking revenge on her because she had caused Qin Zheng to suffer from pregnancy reactions for more than eight months, and now Qin Zheng wanted her to experience the feeling of vomiting.
But Xu Zhiyi really misunderstood Qin Zheng. Qin Zheng was just worried that Xu Zhiyi's health wouldn't recover. And before Xu Zhiyi gave birth, Qin Zheng had already consulted with the doctors and the other sisters-in-law who had given birth in the hospital. He knew that Xu Zhiyi's physical condition would be the weakest after giving birth, and that she would need to replenish her energy the most. That's why Qin Zheng kept asking Xu Zhiyi to drink this and that.
Within four to six hours after Xu Zhiyi's normal delivery, that is, just after Xu Zhiyi started to breastfeed, although Xu Zhiyi's postpartum wound was very painful, Xu Zhiyi, with the support of Qin Zheng, finally insisted on getting out of bed and walking around.
In the days after Xu Zhiyi gave birth naturally, Qin Zheng closely observed the recovery of Xu Zhiyi's wound every day, and disinfected and cleaned the vulva on time. Of course, when cleaning, hot water must be used and cooled before cleaning. Yin and Yang water cannot be used, otherwise the postpartum wound will not heal and may be contaminated.
On the first day after giving birth, Xu Zhiyi had a lot of lochia. Qin Zheng didn't mind at all, changing her diapers on time to keep her body clean and comfortable. Qin Zheng even knew that Xu Zhiyi was shy, so every time he changed her diapers, he would coax her and not let her feel uncomfortable.
The day after Xu Zhiyi gave birth, the nurse checked the baby and found it was fine, so she handed the baby over to Xu Zhiyi and Qin Zheng. It would be better to say that it was handed over to Xu Zhiyi alone than to both of them.
As for why Qin Zheng didn't help Xu Zhiyi coax the child, it wasn't because he was pretending. It was because Qin Zheng hadn't yet accepted that the child in Xu Zhiyi's arms was a boy. Even though Xu Zhiyi wanted Qin Zheng to communicate with the child, every time Xu Zhiyi put the child in front of Qin Zheng, he would see a hint of disgust on Qin Zheng's face. After a few times, Xu Zhiyi gave up and stopped forcing Qin Zheng to accept this matter.
After Xu Zhiyi regained some strength and was able to eat, Qin Zheng asked Li Ruonan to help cook for her every day, so that each meal was different. However, Xu Zhiyi's diet needed more attention, so her diet could not be the same as usual. Not only should her diet be light, but she should also avoid greasy food and eat more vegetables and fruits.
On the third day in the hospital, when Xu Zhiyi was feeding her baby, she clearly felt that she had more breast milk than in the previous few days.
Every time Xu Zhiyi tried to breastfeed, Qin Zheng would ask her to give up. The reason was very simple.
Firstly, Qin Zheng was afraid that Xu Zhiyi would feel pain, and secondly, he didn't want another man to suck Xu Zhiyi's private parts, not even his son. But in the end, Qin Zheng looked at the smile on Xu Zhiyi's face and didn't say it out loud.
Proper breastfeeding focuses on feeding with bacteria and does not require excessive cleaning. You only need to wet the baby with warm water and wipe it before breastfeeding.
Xu Zhiyi had been waiting for a long time and was finally discharged from the hospital. The army could only give Qin Zheng a week's vacation at most. So after taking care of Xu Zhiyi at home for seven days, Qin Zheng had to go back to work in the army.
Although Qin Zheng went to work in the army, he couldn't leave Xu Zhiyi alone at home, so Qin Zheng asked Li Ruonan, who lived next door, to come to his house to take care of Xu Zhiyi. However, Xu Zhiyi was reluctant to let Li Ruonan come. After all, they were neighbors, and Qin Zheng and Wu Wei were good friends. It was a big deal to ask Li Ruonan, her sister-in-law, to come to her house to take care of her.
But Xu Zhiyi failed to convince Qin Zheng in the end and had to agree.
In fact, there was nothing to do during the day, except that Li Ruonan needed help cooking or washing diapers.
