Huang Yuelan felt that the thing was not amniotic fluid, but something relatively hard. However, it did not feel like a child either. After all, a child would cry loudly if it fell out.
"Let me see what it is." The midwife said as she lifted the blanket covering Huang Yuelan.
When she opened it, the midwife was immediately stunned.
What fell out was not something, but a child!
However, because the umbilical cord was wrapped around the neck, the child's face turned purple, which looked very uncomfortable.
The midwife quickly took out her tools, disinfected the scissors, and then cut the umbilical cord.
"Grandma, what fell out?" Huang Yuelan asked.
Midwife: "Look, this is your baby!"
Huang Yuelan took a look at the child, was startled, and immediately prepared to struggle to sit up.
"Don't be excited! Lie down quickly, there is a baby in your belly." The midwife quickly asked Huang Yuelan to lie down.
"Is my child still alive?" Huang Yuelan asked worriedly. After all, the child had fallen out for a while, but there had been no sound, so she just took it lightly. If she had known it was a child, she would definitely have picked it up.
The midwife patted the baby's butt hard. If it were the baby's mother, she would definitely not be able to do such a cruel thing.
Fortunately, after a while, I finally heard the baby crying.
"The child is fine, don't worry." The midwife wiped the blood off the child's body with toilet paper very experiencedly, then washed the child with warm water handed to her by Huang Yueqiang, and then wrapped the child in a small blanket.
"You have to keep pushing, there is still something in your belly!" the midwife told Huang Yuelan.
After hearing this, Huang Yuelan had no choice but to do as the midwife said and tried her best to give birth.
"The baby's head is coming out, try harder." The midwife said to Huang Yuelan.
When Huang Yuelan learned that the head was exposed, she seemed to see the dawn of victory. She breathed according to the method taught by the hospital nurse and finally heard the cry of the second child.
"Mother-in-law, is this a boy or a girl?" Huang Yuelan saw the baby she had just given birth to and it was a boy.
The child I am giving birth to now is my seventh child. I already have six boys. I really hope to have a girl.
"Congratulations, girl."
Huang Yuelan said happily: "That's great, I finally gave birth to a daughter."
But before Huang Yuelan could be happy for more than three seconds, the midwife said coldly: "The girl I was talking about is you. Congratulations, you have given birth to another son."
Hearing this, Huang Yuelan's heart suddenly sank.
I already have so many sons, why can’t I have another daughter?
The midwife couldn't help but feel curious when she saw Huang Yuelan's expression change from happy to disappointed.
But as soon as I thought about it, I understood it immediately.
Just now she entered the yard and saw a bunch of children, all boys. Now two more boys have been born, so she must be thinking of having a daughter.
People are never satisfied.
Those who don’t have a son want a son, while those who already have a son feel that they have too many sons and hope to have a daughter.
But how can you get both a son and a daughter just by wanting them? It still depends on fate and blessings.
However, it is also enviable for someone like Huang Yuelan to have so many sons at once.
I can’t say what it will be like in the future, but right now, in an era when rural areas mainly rely on men to work and earn work points, everyone wants to have sons.
"Don't be discouraged. There is another baby in your belly. Who knows, it might be a girl. Keep trying!" the midwife said to Huang Yuelan.
Huang Yuelan was shocked when she heard this, but at the same time she felt hopeful.
"There's another one in the belly?!" Huang Yuelan asked in disbelief.
Midwife: "Yes, I have been delivering babies for decades, but this is my first time delivering triplets. My career as a midwife is considered perfect."
Ask the midwives in Hongqi Commune, who has delivered triplets? Only Aunt Wang, and this will add a very strong mark to her career as a midwife.
Huang Yuelan didn't expect to give birth today, so she didn't eat much for breakfast. Now it was past noon and she had long since used up all her strength.
"But I have no strength left. Can I eat something?" Huang Yuelan asked.
The midwife knew that giving birth was extremely strenuous. An ordinary person would be exhausted after giving birth to just one child, let alone Huang Yuelan, who had already given birth to two children. Her energy would surely be depleted very quickly.
"Okay, whatever you want to eat, I'll ask your brother to get it for you." said the midwife.
Huang Yuelan: "No need to ask my brother to take it. I put it on the wall over there in advance. It's in the tea box. There are a few chocolate candies. Grandma, please help me get it."
I haven't heard of chocolate, but I know about candy.
The midwife came to the wall that Huang Yuelan mentioned and saw a tea box with some candies inside.
The midwife peeled the candy and stuffed it into Huang Yuelan's mouth.
"Thanks!"
After eating a few pieces of candy, I suddenly felt some strength restored.
These chocolates are the easiest to restore physical strength, and Huang Yuelan deliberately saved them for when she gave birth.
Although the first child had the umbilical cord wrapped around his neck, the births of the first two children were relatively smooth, but the third one was not so easy.
From noon until four o'clock in the afternoon, the baby was still not born.
Huang Yuelan tried all the necessary methods, such as drinking water and eating chocolate. Her strength was almost exhausted, but she still didn't hear the midwife say that the baby was out.
"Mother-in-law, is the baby's head almost coming out? Are you sure there is still a baby inside?" Huang Yuelan remembered that when she gave birth to babies before, whether triplet or twins, it was always very easy. Why was it so difficult this time?
Midwife: "Girl, try harder, I think I can see the baby's feet."
When Huang Yuelan heard that she saw toes instead of the head, her heart immediately sank.
Generally, normal babies are born head down. If their feet are facing down, it means a difficult birth.
The two little ones next to them had been sleeping for a few hours and were now awakened, screaming loudly.
Each one shouted louder than the other, as if they were competing to see who had the loudest voice.
There was no one else at home, and luckily there was still some malted milk that Wang Jianguo had sent back earlier, so he asked Yue Qiang and his brother to help feed the baby.
As the sunlight in the house disappeared, Huang Yuelan saw stars in front of her eyes.
"Come on, my girl! It will come out in a little while!" The midwife was quite experienced. Although one leg came out first, she was not in a hurry and let both legs come out without being stuck.
Wang Jianguo finally got home. As soon as he arrived in the yard, he saw his sons squatting on the cold ground, eating dry food without drinking any water. Their faces were gray and they looked particularly pitiful.
