Chapter 191 Final Preparations
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is the day when my mother is about to give birth.
Lin Yi brought his parents to Beijing early. The hospitals here are all top-notch and the medical equipment is also the most advanced. No matter how healthy his mother is, she gave birth to a child at the age of 41 after all, so there is no room for carelessness.
This day was the last prenatal checkup before admission to the hospital. Lin Yi and Gu Shiyi also came along. Dad needed to accompany Mom, and the two of them helped with the admission procedures.
In the examination room, the doctor looked at the color Doppler ultrasound that Qi Jin had just taken out for a while, then looked up at Qi Jin and Lin Hongcai.
"You're 39 weeks pregnant now, and the test results show the fetal biparietal diameter is 9.2, which is within the normal range. If you don't show signs of labor by 40 weeks, we'll consider giving you oxytocin. You're considered an advanced mother, and if the fetus doesn't start labor after 40 weeks, it could lead to turbid amniotic fluid, hypoxia, and other complications."
"Also, if you don't give birth in another week, the fetus's biparietal diameter will get bigger. Once it breaks through 9.5 or reaches 10, delivery will be more difficult. As for the idea that the fetus's head is larger, you've had a delivery before, so you're probably familiar with that."
Qi Jin nodded repeatedly: "I'm your doctor. I'll follow your professional instructions. I don't feel anything right now, and I can't feel any strong contractions. Let's arrange for hospitalization tomorrow. If labor does start, it will be more reassuring in the hospital."
Qi Jin thought for a moment and added, "I remember my eldest child was also born late, around 41 weeks. This time, I think it will be delayed again."
The doctor paused for a moment. "That's not certain. There aren't specific symptoms. I think you're close to your due date. If you haven't felt anything for a few days, you might be pregnant the next day. You need to observe closely. By the way, your baby is currently in a breech presentation. If it doesn't turn into a cephalic presentation after labor begins, you'll need a cesarean section. I'm letting you know in advance."
"Okay, I understand. I will listen to your opinions and fully cooperate when the time comes."
Qi Jin is a gynecologist herself, so she naturally needs no further explanation. She also knows that at her pregnancy week, it is unlikely for the fetus to turn to the head position. She is hoping that the baby will be delivered soon so that she can have a cesarean section. Now she has pain in her waist and pubic bone, making it difficult for her to walk. She also has chest tightness and shortness of breath at night. It is really hard to bear.
After Lin Yi arranged for the ward, he moved the delivery bag prepared in the car to the ward.
There were everything needed, including baby's clothes, adult's clothes, bottles, milk powder, brushes, diapers, etc. Gu Shiyi also bought everything, including clothes for the baby and mother-in-law, and even confinement hats, socks, postpartum paper, and postpartum cotton.
You can say that if you think of something, you buy it immediately. If you don’t think of it and are afraid of missing it, you check it online. As long as you think it is useful, you buy it.
Although many of them might not be used, Qi Jin and his wife were deeply touched.
They really didn't expect that the children would be so attentive. They had carefully prepared such a good crib since the early stages of pregnancy, and had a constant supply of various supplements, nutritional products and clothes.
Now they were not allowed to take care of anything regarding the hospitalization. Shi Yi even personally asked her and Lin Yi to prepare the delivery bag, so that the couple did not have to worry about it.
Qi Jin jokingly told her husband that with this second child, she felt that she only had to take care of the pregnancy and the baby, and didn't have to worry about anything else. Everything was arranged for the two children, which was more thoughtful than they thought.
I don't know if you would think that Lin Yi and Shi Yi are already parents. They are so calm and steady in everything they do. They don't look like children of eighteen or nineteen at all. Instead, they look like adults who have already established a family and a career.
Lin Hongcai saw it with his own eyes and felt happy in his heart. He finally found a daughter-in-law who could control his son. Since being with Shi Yi, the change in Xiao Yi, this bad boy, has been obvious to all.
This is all thanks to my daughter-in-law.
