Most babies are born 50 centimeters long, rarely exceeding that. However, there are also macrosomic babies who reach 60 centimeters in length, causing their mothers considerable suffering during childbirth, and some require a cesarean section.
The doctor reassured her, "The baby's head diameter isn't large. We'll see the baby's position later and then decide whether or not to have a C-section."
"I want a natural birth, I'm sure I can deliver it naturally," Ye Qingqing insisted.
Having multiple scars on my stomach is too ugly, and surgery leaves me weak and unable to breathe, so natural childbirth is better.
The doctor smiled and said nothing. Whether or not a woman can have a natural birth is not up to her to decide. She would not allow the woman to be in danger and would definitely choose the most beneficial delivery method for both mother and child. If the woman really couldn't give birth naturally, she would definitely not force it, otherwise it would not be a joyous occasion, but a human tragedy.
Lu Mo kept staring at the screen, his feelings were complicated. This was his and Qingqing's child, the continuation of their lives. They would meet in a month, but he didn't seem ready to be a father yet!
Somewhat at a loss.
"Oh my... this child is interesting. Did you see that? The little guy is moving, but very slowly, like he's doing Tai Chi." The ultrasound doctor chuckled and pointed to the screen, looking quite surprised.
Lu Mo and Lin Shufang both went over to take a look. If the doctor hadn't reminded them, they really wouldn't have been able to tell that the little guy was moving. They observed for at least a minute before they realized that the little thing was indeed moving. First, its two feet slowly changed direction, and then its little body rolled to the side. The movements were even slower than slow motion.
"Is he turning things around?" Lin Shufang asked softly.
The doctor chuckled, "Yes, he's turning over. I finally understand what's going on. Your child isn't quiet; he's just moving so quietly that it hasn't caught the mother's attention. Actually, he's been moving the whole time."
Lying in bed, Ye Qingqing couldn't see and was extremely anxious. She also wanted to see her son turn over, but she couldn't move.
"Now you can rest assured and wait for the delivery next month. You need to prepare the baby's clothes, blankets, diapers, and a pack of formula. If it's a C-section, you won't have milk for the first two days and will need to drink formula."
The doctor gave a lot of instructions, and Lin Shufang nodded from time to time, "Everything is prepared, the house is full of supplies!"
As soon as Ye Qingqing became pregnant, she started preparing. She would buy any pretty little clothes she saw when she went out, regardless of gender, and she also stocked up on a lot of toys and dolls, more for girls than boys. Lin Shufang thought that they could use them when she had a granddaughter in the future, so she wouldn't have to buy them again.
Once she confirmed that the baby was moving, Ye Qingqing was completely relieved. In the last month, she followed the doctor's advice and took walks every day to help correct the baby's position and facilitate delivery. Time flew by, and there was less than a week left until her due date.
Lin Shufang packed all the things needed for the delivery into a large bag, so that she could grab them easily if anything happened. Her father-in-law also came to stay, so he could at least help out. The whole family was in a state of preparation to welcome the arrival of the new life.
However, one day, two days, three days, four days... When the due date arrived, Ye Qingqing's belly remained calm, except for the daily greetings, nothing was different from before.
"So you're not planning to come out?" Ye Qingqing, who had been relieved, was now on edge again.
She was worried that the baby might suffer from oxygen deprivation if it stayed in her womb for too long, and what if the baby developed mental retardation?
Xiao Tong's intelligence was affected because she was in the womb for too long. If it weren't for her miraculous encounter, she might never have recovered. Such an opportunity is rare and not everyone can come across it.
