When a baby is first born, many newborns may not look as perfect as their parents had hoped. When Gu Yunxi first saw her baby, she probably felt that the baby's appearance was somewhat different from the image of a little angel she had imagined. This feeling is not uncommon among new mothers, especially after the hardships of childbirth.
However, both Gu Yunxi's mother, Xia Liang, and her mother-in-law, Huang Haitang, immediately showed the baby unconditional love and praise. They knew that every child is unique, and that as time went on, the baby would gradually reveal their unique charm.
When Xia Liang saw the baby, she immediately said in a loving tone, "Yunxi, look how cute the baby is, how bright his eyes are. He looks just like you when you were little."
Huang Haitang was not to be outdone. Holding the baby, she said with a joyful expression, "Yes, Yunxi, the baby is so handsome. Look at his little hands and feet, how strong he is."
Hearing her mother and mother-in-law's praise, Gu Yunxi, though somewhat doubtful, was gradually touched by her family's love. She began to observe the baby more carefully, discovering that the baby's eyes, nose, and mouth each had their own unique features, which made her feel increasingly close to the baby.
He Siyan joined in the praise, saying gently to Gu Yunxi, "Yunxi, look how cute the baby is. He is our child, the fruit of our love. I believe he will grow more and more handsome."
As time went on, Gu Yunxi found the baby increasingly adorable, and she began to cherish every moment spent with him. She discovered that every movement and expression of the baby brought her immense happiness.
In the first few weeks after birth, newborns often undergo significant changes in appearance. Initially, their skin may appear wrinkled due to prolonged immersion in amniotic fluid. However, as they gradually adapt to the external environment, their skin will begin to become smoother and fuller.
Shortly after Gu Yunxi and He Siyan's baby was born, the little one's appearance changed rapidly. Xia Liang and Huang Haitang observed the baby's changes every day and kept assuring Gu Yunxi that the baby would become more and more adorable.
While changing the baby's diaper, Xia Liang whispered to Gu Yunxi, "Yunxi, look, the baby's skin is starting to become smooth. He will soon become a chubby little baby."
Huang Haitang also prepares nutritious food for the baby every day to help the baby grow healthily. She said to Gu Yunxi, "Yunxi, the baby's diet is very good. You see, he is getting rounder every day and will soon become a cute little ball of flesh."
Every time He Siyan came home from get off work, he couldn't wait to pick up the baby and admire his changes. He said to Gu Yunxi, "Yunxi, our baby is changing every day. He looks healthier and healthier now."
Gu Yunxi gradually noticed that as her baby grew, his skin became smoother and his little face became rounder. She began to cherish the time she spent with her baby even more and enjoy the joy of being a mother.
Soon after, the baby turned one month old, and the family held a small celebration. At the event, all relatives and friends congratulated the baby on his healthy growth. Gu Yunxi and He Siyan looked at their baby, feeling incredibly proud and happy.
Qian Ziyi looked at the baby in Gu Yunxi's arms, her heart filled with love and envy. The baby's chubby and adorable appearance made Qian Ziyi want to get closer. However, when Gu Yunxi smiled and handed the baby to her, Qian Ziyi suddenly felt a little nervous and timid.
Gu Yunxi said gently, "Ziyi, come and hold the baby, he's very well-behaved."
Qian Ziyi hesitated for a moment. She reached out her hand, but then pulled it back: "Yunxi, I...I'm a little scared. I'm afraid I won't be able to hold him properly."
Gu Yunxi smiled understandingly and encouraged her, "It's okay, Ziyi. The baby is very light. You just need to support his head and back with both hands, and there won't be any problems."
He Siyan also chimed in with support: "Yes, Ziyi, you can do it. We can all teach you how to hold the baby."
Encouraged by Gu Yunxi and He Siyan, Qian Ziyi mustered her courage and carefully took the baby. Following Gu Yunxi's instructions, she steadily supported the baby with both hands and then slowly held him in her arms.
The baby lay quietly in Qian Ziyi's arms, curiously observing this new face. Qian Ziyi felt the baby's warmth and softness; her tension gradually disappeared, replaced by a sense of warmth and joy.
"Wow, he's so small and soft," Qian Ziyi said softly, a happy smile on her face.
Gu Yunxi and He Siyan were also very happy to see Qian Ziyi and the baby. They knew that such close contact was very beneficial for deepening the bond between friends.
With encouragement from Gu Yunxi and He Siyan, Qian Ziyi gradually relaxed and began to enjoy the warm moments of holding her baby. The baby slept peacefully in her arms, occasionally flashing a sweet smile, which melted Qian Ziyi's heart.
Gu Yunxi sat to the side, looking at Qian Ziyi and the baby, and said softly, "Look, the baby likes you very much. He is sleeping so soundly in your arms."
Qian Ziyi nodded, her eyes sparkling with maternal light: "Yunxi, this feeling is so wonderful. I feel like I want to have a little baby like this too."
He Siyan added with a smile, "Ziyi, you will definitely become a wonderful mother in the future. Now you can spend more time with your baby and gain some experience."
Qian Ziyi carefully adjusted her position while holding the baby to ensure the baby was more comfortable. She whispered to the baby, "Little baby, I'm your auntie Qian Ziyi. I'll come to see you often from now on."
Gu Yunxi and He Siyan watched Qian Ziyi interact with the baby, their hearts filled with happiness and gratitude. They knew that having such a caring aunt during the baby's growth was a blessing for him.
Soon after, the baby woke up, and Gu Yunxi took the baby to feed him. Qian Ziyi stood aside, curiously observing Gu Yunxi's skillful movements, and asked Gu Yunxi some questions about childcare.
Gu Yunxi patiently answered Qian Ziyi's questions and shared her experience: "Ziyi, when breastfeeding, make sure the baby's posture is correct so that he can eat comfortably."
Qian Ziyi listened attentively, nodding occasionally to show her understanding. She felt she had learned a lot of valuable knowledge and was filled with anticipation for her future role as a mother.
