Xiao Yihan looked at the dense sweat that kept coming out of Chu Jingqiu's forehead, his face full of worry.
He gently wiped the sweat off her face, then carefully brought a cup of spiritual spring water and gently coaxed Chu Jingqiu to drink it.
After Chu Jingqiu drank the spiritual spring water, he felt that the pain in his stomach that was like a knife cutting was relieved a little.
However, the pain in her waist and the urge to defecate became more and more intense. She knew that this was a normal reaction to childbirth, but the feeling was unbearable.
At this moment, Xiao's mother and father hurried to the ward carrying lunch boxes. Seeing Chu Jingqiu's painful expression, they also began to get nervous.
Xiao Ma hurriedly helped Chu Jingqiu to serve some rice, and said softly, "Xiaoqiu, eat something, so that you can have the strength to give birth to the baby."
Xiao Yihan took the bowl and slowly fed her when there was a gap between contractions.
Once the pain came, Chu Jingqiu was too uncomfortable to eat. Once the pain passed, she ate a few mouthfuls quickly.
She was in no mood to taste the food at the moment, she just mechanically put the food into her stomach. For the sake of her child, she had to force herself to eat it so as not to be exhausted during the delivery.
Chu Jingqiu quickly finished the bowl of chicken noodle soup. Xiao Ma served her another bowl, but Chu Jingqiu waved her hand, indicating that she couldn't eat anymore.
Chu Jingqiu gritted her teeth and persevered. As the intervals between contractions became shorter and shorter, Chu Jingqiu was in so much pain that she could not even stand up.
He Manwen placed a soft cushion in front of her bed, and she knelt on the cushion in front of the bed. When she felt uncomfortable, everyone took turns massaging her waist.
Chu Jingqiu's clothes were soaked, as if she had just been pulled out of the water. Her hair was wet and stuck to her scalp, looking a little messy.
Xiao Yihan squatted on the ground, looking at her distressedly. He gently combed Chu Jingqiu's wet hair back and wiped the sweat off her forehead with a towel.
Just then, footsteps were heard outside the door. Qi Yue, Xiao Xu, and Zhang Pingping hurried into the ward.
As soon as they entered the ward, they saw Chu Jingqiu in unbearable pain, and several people immediately showed worry on their faces.
Zhang Pingping hurriedly walked over to Chu Jingqiu, squatted down, and began to massage her lower back. "Jingqiu, take a deep breath. Deep breathing can relieve the pain. Just bear it for a while. It will be fine after the baby is born.
Mr. Xiao and Mr. He paced back and forth anxiously in the ward, their arms behind their backs, their expressions looking very nervous.
Seeing this, Grandma Xiao gently advised, "Both of you should sit down. Walking around like this is not only unhelpful, but also makes us more anxious."
However, less than a minute after they sat down, they stood up again like a spring and continued to stare at Chu Jingqiu nervously.
Dad Xiao and Dad Chu were sitting on the sofa, but it was obvious that they were both uneasy.
Around five in the afternoon, Chu Jingqiu's contractions had turned into a constant pain, and a warm current flowed between her legs. Zhang Pingping saw this and exclaimed, "Jingqiu, her water's broken. She should be giving birth soon!"
Xiao Yihan hurriedly picked up Chu Jingqiu, and Qi Yue immediately ran out to call a doctor.
Doctor Lin came over quickly. She checked Chu Jingqiu and confirmed that she was about to give birth. She then sent her to the delivery room.
Because He Manwen was a doctor in our hospital, she quickly changed into surgical gown and followed him into the delivery room.
The others were waiting outside the delivery room. The benches on both sides of the corridor were filled with people from the two families.
Xiao Yihan was so nervous that he couldn't sit still. He paced back and forth at the door of the delivery room, and from time to time he pricked up his ears to listen to the sounds inside.
Every time he heard Chu Jingqiu's painful groans, his heart would tighten. He clenched his fists, his eyes filled with tears, and he tried hard not to let them flow.
In the delivery room, Chu Jingqiu was lying on the delivery bed, her body twisted due to the severe pain of childbirth.
Her face was pale, her hands were tightly gripping the armrests on both sides of the delivery bed, she was moaning in pain, and sweat was soaking her hair and cheeks.
He Manwen held her hand tightly, wiped the sweat off her face from time to time, and leaned over to comfort her softly.
Doctor Lin stood beside the delivery bed with a smile on her face. She said softly, "Xiao Qiu, take a deep breath and relax your body. Now listen to my commands. I will tell you when to push."
Following Dr. Lin's instructions, Chu Jingqiu began to exert force as instructed. She clenched her teeth, tried to endure the pain, and concentrated all her strength on her abdomen.
"Okay... Xiaoqiu, push harder! Just push harder like you're doing a bowel movement. Do it again, harder, harder...!"
Chu Jingqiu followed the doctor's instructions and began to push. She felt that every time she pushed, she almost exhausted all her strength.
"Okay, very good, Xiaoqiu, keep trying. We can already see the baby's hair. Let's do it again..."
Chu Jingqiu used up the last bit of his strength, let out a long scream, and then felt something being squeezed out of his body.
Outside the delivery room, Xiao Yihan heard Chu Jingqiu's desperate cries of pain coming from inside. His nervous legs began to tremble. He pressed his head tightly against the cold door, praying with tears streaming down his face.
The two old men couldn't sit still any longer. They came over, and Old Man He patted Xiao Yihan on the back, "Yihan, don't worry, Xiaoqiu will give birth to the baby safely, don't worry!"
Xiao Yihan's lips trembled. He wanted to say something, but his throat seemed to be blocked by something, and he could only make hoarse sounds.
"Wa... Wa...!" A loud baby cry came from the delivery room, and everyone outside the delivery room stood up.
"Great, it's born, Xiaoqiu is born!" Xiao Yihan's body shook violently, and an ecstatic expression appeared on his face.
In the delivery room, Dr. Lin smiled and let Chu Jingqiu take a look at the baby. "Xiaoqiu, the first one is very healthy. It's a boy, weighing 4.2 jins."
Chu Jingqiu smiled weakly, and the nurse helped wrap the child up.
He Manwen hurriedly picked up the brown sugar water next to her and asked Chu Jingqiu to drink it. This was specially made for her by Xiao Yihan using spiritual spring water. After Chu Jingqiu drank it, she immediately felt refreshed and her strength was immediately restored.
Just five minutes later, the pain returned. Chu Jingqiu clutched the handrail tightly and took a deep breath. Doctor Lin stood by, encouraging and guiding her to push harder. "Very good, Xiaoqiu, try again, just like before, push harder!"
With the help of doctors and nurses, Chu Jingqiu used all her strength and finally, accompanied by a loud cry, the second child was born safely, another boy, weighing 4.12 catties.
In this way, every five minutes, Chu Jingqiu drank the spiritual spring water, and then a child was born safely. Soon the third and fourth children were also born, both boys. The third child weighed four pounds and one ounce, and the fourth child weighed four pounds.
