Because I had made an appointment in advance, I was taken to the designated ward when I arrived at the hospital.
Jiang Lin put his things down and said, "Wife, please sit down first. I'll go and handle the formalities."
After Jiang Lin left, Su Yuhe looked around the ward. Besides her and Yinu, there were two pregnant women with big bellies in the room.
When the two people saw Su Yuhe come in, they just looked up, but because of Yinu's conspicuous and alternative dress, they looked at Yinu twice more.
In the end, they just busy themselves with their own things.
Su Yuhe took a look and saw that the two pregnant women didn't look enthusiastic, so she simply didn't say anything.
One of them had short hair and was flipping through a copy of the Little Red Book.
This person should be an intellectual.
The other one was knitting in her hands. It was already spring, and she was still knitting. I didn't know what to knit.
In comparison, Su Yuhe is the one who does nothing.
Yi Nu couldn't sit still, so seeing Su Yuhe sitting on the bed, he stood up and said, "I'm going out for a walk."
Su Yuhe nodded, and Yinu took two steps forward and came back: "Forget it, I'll wait for Jiang kid to come back, then I'll go out."
Su Yuhe smiled and said, "I'm not made of glass. There are still a few days left. Go ahead and do whatever you want."
Yinu shook his head and brought a stool to sit down.
Jiang Lin came back after finishing the formalities, with Li Qing by his side.
Li Qing was Su Yuhe's doctor. When she heard Su Yuhe was here, she came to see her. Her eyes were filled with a hint of smile. "How are you feeling?"
Su Yuhe: "It's fine, but my family is worried, so they came early."
Li Qing nodded and listened to Su Yuhe's ears with a stethoscope. There was no particularly loud noise. "Well, since you're here, stay here first. The due date is only a few days away. If you need anything, you can call me anytime."
After Li Qing left, the pregnant woman who was knitting asked Su Yuhe, "Comrade, was the doctor who delivered you Li Qing?"
"Huh?" Su Yuhe turned around and glanced at it, then nodded belatedly, "That should be it."
The woman sighed: "You are so lucky."
Su Yuhe raised her eyebrows: "What do you mean?"
"Dr. Li is the best doctor in the obstetrics department. Her surgeries are very difficult to schedule. You must have scheduled them a long time in advance, right?"
Su Yuhe was a little surprised. To be honest, it was not Li Qing who made the appointment. She had always used Li Qing's number for prenatal checkups.
After confirming the due date, Li Qing took the initiative to ask Su Yuhe if she wanted to give birth in the hospital, and Su Yuhe said yes.
Li Qing didn't say anything, just told Su Yuhe to come on her due date.
So it was Li Qing who took the initiative to arrange Su Yuhe's schedule?
Su Yuhe thought to herself that this must be the case, but she couldn't possibly tell the whole story to a woman she had just met. She smiled vaguely, "Really? But Doctor Li is really good. She's always been my go-to doctor for my prenatal checkups."
After getting Su Yuhe's response, the woman became much more enthusiastic than when they first met, and kept talking to Su Yuhe. Su Yuhe felt a little tired.
Jiang Lin came back from fetching water and saw Su Yuhe. He asked her to drink a few sips of water and urged her to go to sleep.
Su Yuhe gave Jiang Lin an admiring look and looked at the woman with a feigned apology: "Sorry, I'm going to bed on time."
The woman had been staying there for several days, but her due date had passed and she still hadn't gone into labor. The woman who came in later just kept reading a book and ignored her no matter what she said.
It was better to have a question and answer. The woman nodded with some satisfaction: "You go to sleep, I will continue knitting."
The weather was still a little cold, Jiang Lin covered Su Yuhe with a blanket and sat beside her.
Yi Nu ran out as soon as Jiang Lin came back.
Jiang Lin bought dinner from the state-owned restaurant, and Su Yuhe ate it while sitting on the bed.
Halfway through the meal, the pregnant woman who had been talking to her during the day began to have contractions, screamed a few times, and then her amniotic fluid broke.
Her family went to call a doctor.
The doctor came, took a quick look, and left with the words "your fingers haven't been dilated yet" before leaving.
The woman's face began to sweat and her moans became louder. Her family member, probably her mother-in-law, said beside her: "This has just started, how can we get to where we are now?"
The woman took two quick breaths: "...Mom, it hurts so much."
"You have to endure the pain. It's something every woman has to go through. It will be fine after giving birth."
Su Yuhe paused with her hand holding the spoon, and couldn't help but look to the side, pursing her lips.
Jiang Lin was afraid that she would be frightened, so he squeezed her arm and said, "I'm right here, don't be afraid, let's eat first."
Su Yuhe stirred the bowl with a spoon, but she didn't have much appetite.
Jiang Lin took the spoon from her, scooped up a spoonful and handed it to Su Yuhe's mouth.
Su Yuhe's face turned red and she dodged: "I'll eat it myself."
Jiang Lin didn't move, so Su Yuhe could only open her mouth and eat.
Being coaxed by Jiang Lin like this, the panic that had just arisen in Su Yuhe's heart disappeared completely.
The pregnant woman next to me was still dilating, and the pain was so severe that the people behind me had to grit their teeth to conserve their strength.
The woman spoke in a low voice, probably to her lover: "I feel like I can't make it anymore. Let's go call a doctor to see if I can have the baby."
The doctor came and took a look and found that the dilation was only four fingers: "We have to wait."
The woman felt dizzy, but there was nothing she could do as the contractions became more frequent.
It took an hour before the door was finally opened to ten fingers.
Su Yuhe looked at the time. The woman was in pain for more than two hours from the beginning until she entered the delivery room.
Su Yuhe's memory of giving birth in her previous life was a lot more vague, and she couldn't remember how long she had been in pain.
Her eyes wandered.
Jiang Lin held Su Yuhe's hand distressedly: "Go to sleep, don't look at it."
Su Yuhe came back to her senses and found that Jiang Lin had been looking at her with a complicated and pitying look. She smiled and said, "Okay."
Su Yuhe closed her eyes obediently, but she couldn't fall asleep.
Jiang Lin looked anxious: "What are you thinking about?"
In fact, Jiang Lin was also anxious when he saw the woman's labor. This was the first time he saw someone else's reaction before giving birth. He thought that Su Yuhe might also have to go through the same thing.
Jiang Lin was extremely anxious.
I couldn't think of any way to transfer the pain to him no matter how hard I tried.
This anxiety almost reached its peak when he found that Su Yuhe had been tossing and turning and couldn't fall asleep.
Su Yuhe sat up, clutching the quilt with her hands, and looked at Jiang Lin: "I'm so nervous."
Jiang Lin held Su Yuhe's hand and stuffed it back into the quilt, but did not pull his hand out. Instead, he kept holding Su Yuhe's hand under the quilt.
I don’t know whether it is to give Su Yuhe strength or to draw strength from Su Yuhe.
Jiang Lin smiled. "Don't be afraid, I'm here. Oh, by the way, I've thought of a nickname for the child. How about Daniu?"
“!”
Su Yuhe glared at him: "Not very good! What's your name?"
Jiang Lin touched the back of his head: "It's easy to raise a cheap name."
Su Yuhe's nervousness disappeared, leaving only the desire to have a good talk with Jiang Lin: "Why don't you have a bad name?"
Su Yuhe assumed that he didn't have it because she had never heard her grandmother or mother mention it.
Jiang Lin paused: "Isn't this my first time being a father?"
