Yong had just gone hunting that day; his wife from the tribe had just left.
When the old woman came over, Qing didn't feel like she was going to give birth at all.
The only option was to ask the old woman to go back home, since she was getting old and couldn't be kept by his side all day long.
Who knew that luck would be so good? The old lady had just left in the morning, and Qing started having stomach pains in the afternoon.
There was no other way, so she had to produce it herself. Fortunately, she wasn't alone; there was a robot in the space.
I'm also glad the old woman went back; otherwise, with the simple tools she brought—just a stone slab—I wouldn't have dared to use that baby's umbilical cord.
I closed the door outside the cave to avoid being caught coming out of the space while I was out of the cave, which would be a huge problem. After thinking it through, I instantly entered the space.
After entering the space, I felt that my belly wasn't about to give birth so quickly, and I wandered around inside for half an hour.
For the past half hour, I've had to rely on a robot to help me walk around; otherwise, the pain would have been unbearable, and I wouldn't have been able to walk for half an hour.
When the pain became unbearable, she quickly returned to the cabin, lay down on the bed inside, and called the robot to help deliver the baby.
Before giving birth, she ate a lot of pills that helped her figure, and then she felt like she was laying an egg, and instantly gave birth to the baby in her belly.
After giving birth, hand the baby over to the robot to take care of; after all, robots are practically omnipotent.
Taking care of a newborn baby was no problem, and then she took a pill to restore her health.
Quietly wait for the medicine to take effect. When the medicine takes effect, you will see your originally large belly slowly flatten out.
After about ten minutes, my belly returned to about the same size as before I gave birth.
I got out of bed and walked around a bit, and I didn't feel uncomfortable at all. These pills are really effective. It seems I can't waste them.
People often send red envelopes in the group, but because they forgot their relationship with Brother Xu, they were too embarrassed to join and didn't try to grab them.
After giving birth, Qing felt extremely hungry, but the smell of blood on her body was very strong, and she felt she couldn't stand it if she didn't wash herself.
Anyway, my body has already recovered and I don't feel uncomfortable at all, so it doesn't matter whether I have to observe postpartum confinement or not.
But I still want to stay in confinement for a month, since the baby is too young. Sending the baby to the tribe would make the elderly people there very worried.
All the children in the tribe are raised together after birth, and I have never been to a cave specifically for raising children.
Whether or not to leave your child there depends on whether you check out the environment yourself.
If the environment there is good, you can keep them there, after all, it's a custom passed down from generation to generation.
Take out the bath tub, which is half-filled with water imbued with spiritual energy, and then add twice as much celestial spring water as usual, ready to thoroughly cleanse yourself.
Sitting in the bathtub, feeling the spiritual energy washing over my body, I usually experience a tingling, numb pain when I take a bath, but today it hurts more than twice as much as before.
Once you feel no more discomfort, quickly get out of the bathtub, pour in hot water again, wash your body thoroughly, and then quickly put on your clothes.
Upon entering the cabin, I looked in the full-length mirror. The reflection in the mirror showed that my appearance was no different from before, except that my figure was a little better.
It should be said that she has improved more than just a little bit; her chest is bulging, which means she should have enough food for her son.
I gently squeezed it and found it was indeed hard; my son should be able to breastfeed soon.
Nodding in satisfaction, I could finally treat myself after everything was tidied up.
Find a meal that was packed up in my past life, and specifically choose a nourishing meal and soup.
Fortunately, I was single in my past life, and I always had a housekeeper who cooked a lot of food for me to store up.
So now we don't have to worry about eating ready-made meals, and it has all kinds of things, including plenty of soups that are needed during postpartum confinement.
I specifically chose a pig's feet and soybean soup so that I wouldn't have to worry about the baby not having enough food.
Thinking that the baby was a boy, I quickly called the machine to weigh him. I watched it being weighed and saw that the baby weighed seven pounds and five ounces.
The animal hides wrapped around his body looked to weigh more than five ounces, probably more than six or seven pounds.
I had just finished eating and was about to take my baby out of the room when I was hit by a strong stench.
It looks like the baby's meconium is about to come out; let's quickly call the robot to clean it up.
Take it easy when you can, and do it yourself when you can't.
After getting ready, I immediately took the baby and created some space. I lay down on the kang (heated brick bed) to prepare for my postpartum confinement.
Thinking about how women in the tribe don't have the custom of postpartum confinement, I feel that people don't value their own health at all.
Qing had already discussed with the clan chief before giving birth that she would take a month off.
Since everyone is required to rest, if one wants to rest, one must give some compensation to the tribe.
After a month's rest, two cows must be sent to the tribe. It's not that the others can't afford to give, but they don't value it.
Qing felt it was better to be a little sentimental. Even though the pills could repair her body, it would be better to rest for a month if possible.
The women in the tribe all felt that Qing had become increasingly pretentious after getting married, and they were very envious that Qing could rest for a month after giving birth.
It's not that their partners treat them badly, it's just that life is inherently difficult in primitive tribes.
They are busy all year round for their mouths, and they don't have the awareness that they need to rest after giving birth.
Because Qing took a month off, two other women in the tribe who were pregnant at the same time also took a month off, along with her.
Then those two women got pregnant again after only two months of childbirth, which was very unusual for the tribe. Everyone attributed the reason to the benefits of postpartum care.
In the past, when I had my second child, it was always several years apart. I never got pregnant so quickly.
Then everyone looked for the reason again, and after searching around, they found that both of them had rested for a month.
The tribal chief was very concerned about procreation, so he told all the other women in the tribe who had just given birth to rest for a month to see if it would be easier to conceive a second time.
As I guessed, it was indeed easier after I recovered.
Of course, that's a story for later. At this moment, Qing was lying on the kang (a heated brick bed) with her baby in her arms, peacefully recovering from childbirth.
She was also wondering if Yong would be shocked when he came back.
