"Doctor Qin, you are here."
"Director Li, I'm counting on you today."
"Don't be so polite. It's just a small favor."
"This must be your daughter-in-law. Her belly is indeed much bigger than that of a normal three-month-old baby."
After Li Ping finished her visual inspection, she actually had a judgment in her mind.
Based on her many years of obstetric experience, there was no doubt that she was pregnant with twins.
If it wasn't twins, but she had such a big belly, then it would be a serious matter.
Li Ping brought the two of them to the examination room, and Yan's mother followed them in.
Song Fuyu took a quick look and found that this was actually the earliest type of B-ultrasound. It has not yet been popularized, so only a few large hospitals have introduced it.
"Director Li, this device will have no effect on pregnant women and their babies, right?"
"No, this is very safe. It is just an auxiliary examination instrument and will not cause any harm to pregnant women and fetuses."
"At present, we mainly observe the condition of the fetus in the womb, and later we can check whether there are any deformities, organ loss and other problems."
"Wouldn't it be possible to see the gender of the child?"
"Shh, keep your voice down."
Li Ping looked towards the door nervously.
"It will take four months."
"You don't want to see it, do you?"
Ever since the hospital got this device, she has been worried to death.
Many people wanted to ask her to identify the gender of a person, but she didn't want to do that and wasn't willing to do that.
It’s identified, so what next?
If a pregnancy is forced to be terminated because the child’s gender is disclosed, it is a crime!
It went against her original intention of becoming a doctor.
"We don't care. Our family is happy regardless of whether it's a boy or a girl."
"That's fine."
"If you want to see it, don't look for me."
"I know. I won't make it difficult for you."
After hearing Yan's mother's assurance, Li Ping finally put her mind at ease.
"Pregnant mother, please lie down on the bed, lift up your clothes, and pull your pants down a little."
"I will apply coupling agent on your belly later. There will be no side effects, but it will be a little cold. Just bear with it and wipe it off after the examination."
"good."
Song Fuyu is very experienced in this regard.
This item was included in my annual physical examination.
It is impossible to wipe it completely, and you must take a shower immediately when you get home, otherwise you will always feel sticky and uncomfortable.
Li Ping helped her apply the coupling agent and began to probe her abdomen with the probe.
"They are indeed twins, or fraternal twins in the same placenta."
“You can see this?”
Yan's mother excitedly came over to look at the screen together, and Li Ping used her hand to point out the situation on the screen for her.
"Oh, it's true."
“They are so small now.”
Although Yan's mother is a doctor, this is the first time for her to observe the condition of the baby in the womb so directly, and it feels very novel.
"Usually, at three months old, it is only seven or eight centimeters long and weighs only about twenty grams."
"Director Li, you just said that this can also be used to check if the baby is deformed. At what age is it best to check?"
"My suggestion is to wait until 22 or 24 weeks. If you really don't have time, you can't wait past 28 weeks. You should know the reason."
Mother Yan nodded.
"Thank you, Director Li. I may need you to check again when my belly gets bigger."
"No problem, as long as you don't check the gender, I can help with everything else."
Yan's mother helped Song Fuyu wipe the coupling agent off her stomach and helped her up from the examination bed.
"You are pregnant with twins, so you need to pay more attention to things than a single baby."
"Eat more high-protein foods, eat small and frequent meals, and don't overdo it to prevent the baby from being too big to deliver later."
"Get enough sleep, avoid overwork, and avoid strenuous exercise."
"My advice is that, for the sake of caution, it is best for couples not to have sex together, so as to avoid men being careless in this regard..."
Li Ping explained many things in detail.
In terms of sexual intercourse, even more emphasis was placed on it.
Although she had never seen Dr. Qin's youngest son, she had seen the second and third sons, as well as her husband.
They are all tall and strong, and the youngest son is probably about the same size.
Although her daughter-in-law is also tall, she is far inferior to her son in terms of physique.
"Don't worry, I'll call him when I get back."
"Mom, there's no need to emphasize this to Ziyuan anymore. Didn't you already tell him last time?"
"I'm afraid he won't learn his lesson."
If Xiaoyu stayed in Jing City, she wouldn't have to worry too much, but if she returned to Lu City, the situation would be different.
After saying goodbye to Director Li, all the way home, Yan's mother kept talking to her about her experience when she was pregnant with twins.
Being pregnant with twins is generally considered a blessing, no matter what era it is. Especially for twin boys and girls, it is considered a good omen and a symbol of blessing.
But Yan's mother is a doctor herself, so she is not as optimistic as ordinary people.
If there is a difficult delivery, the consequences will be disastrous.
It was the 1940s, and although there were many precedents of successful caesarean sections, recovery after the operation was also a big problem.
If the mother has just undergone surgery and has no milk, that will be another big challenge.
So whether it is one or two pregnancies, it is a challenge for women.
However, Yan's mother did not tell Song Fuyu about these things. She only talked about some positive and optimistic memories. She didn't want Xiaoyu to start being afraid before giving birth.
