Plague Doctor

"Ah, hubby, my stomach hurts so much..."

In the labor ward, Liu Yiqi painfully bit the forearm of her husband Du Hongwen, who was sitting beside the hospital bed, biting down hard to resist the pain of her own tearing. Du Hongwen also showed his teeth and cracked his mouth in pain, but he still let his wife bite, "Wife, you bite, bite as long as you feel comfortable..."

After my amniotic water broke yesterday morning, it has been almost a day since I came in, and I haven't opened three fingers enough.

Du Hongwen was really living like a year, and his two little arms were bitten so hard by his wife that there was almost no room for her to bite him again.

But as Ip Man said, there are no men who are afraid of their wives in this world, only men who respect their wives.

Just bite it, it’s better for my wife to feel more comfortable, as long as she and the baby, mother and child are safe...

But this made the two mothers who were also accompanying them distressed. When Du Hongwen went out to get hot water, Liu Yiqi's mother once again advised: "Daughter, just endure the pain and put Hongwen's Even if you bite off a piece of flesh with your hand, you will still feel pain."

"I know..." Liu Yiqi whimpered in pain, "But if I don't bite, I'm really going to die."

"Bah, bah, bah!" Her mother suddenly became anxious, how could she say such unlucky words during labor. Du Hongwen's mother immediately clasped her hands together and prayed anxiously to Goddess Guanyin for her blessing. The young man said the wrong thing for a moment, and it didn't count. Goddess Guanyin's blessing...

I don’t know if this prayer had an effect. Shortly after Du Hongwen came back from fetching water, Liu Yiqi finally opened three fingers, and she screamed out in pain.

Not long after, she was pushed into the delivery room by the nurse. Du Hongwen also came in to accompany her and stood beside the delivery bed to encourage her.

This time Liu Yiqi didn't bite, but pinched her husband's forearm with her fingers. She used as much strength as it hurt.

Du Hongwen didn't know how painful it would be for a woman to give birth, but at this moment, he was really in pain...

"It's almost done, please try harder." Dr. He, the delivery doctor, encouraged, "It's coming out, please try harder!"

Amid the mother's screams of pain and the shouts of others, a newborn baby covered in blood came into the world with an umbilical cord attached.

But this baby girl did not give the world a cry for the first time.

With a crack, Dr. He patted the baby girl's buttocks. The nurses and Du Hongwen were eagerly waiting for her to cry. Liu Yiqi, who was already in pain and a little confused, looked at the hazy scene in front of her and murmured: "Baby...baby... What's wrong……"

Suddenly, the baby girl's throat, which was still sticky with blood, moved, and she uttered a childish, somewhat weird and clear sentence:

"...the right choice..."

After that, amidst everyone's surprise and confusion, the clear and clear cry started to sound.

…

"Honey, hold on tight, you'll be fine soon!"

As the nurse pushed the mobile bed to the delivery room, Zhang Xingjun followed quickly, encouraging his wife Huang Sihan who was already crying.

They were college classmates, got married right after graduation, and are about to become parents a year later. Both of them are still very young, only 23 years old, but they are happy to be parents soon and are full of expectations and confidence in the future. They are in love, and their children are truly the product of love, which is very lucky.

Since the birth yesterday, Zhang Xingjun has watched his wife suffer so much and regretted not insisting that his wife choose a caesarean section.

But Huang Sihan has learned a lot and has considered a lot. C-sections also have pain, and the recovery time is even longer than normal births.

Her physical condition was okay, and the fetus was fine, and it was said that vaginal delivery was better for the baby, so she insisted on having a vaginal birth before.

"Honey, I can hold on..." Although Huang Sihan cried bitterly, she also regretted why she was so blinded that she did not choose a caesarean section. However, she knew that these were just thoughts when she was in pain. After she got over it, there would be another Different ideas...

A normal birth is better for the baby. As long as it's good for the baby, it's worth the extra pain.

When a person is in severe pain, his consciousness will become erratic.

Huang Sihan was intermittently aware of the changes around her. Somehow, she kept exerting herself on the delivery bed in the delivery room. Dr. Wang, who was responsible for delivering the baby, encouraged her. Zhang Xingjun, who was accompanying her, also kept saying "Come on, come on." .

"Push harder, and the baby's head comes out! The body comes out... Okay, okay, it's a boy."

Dr. Wang's words of relief were like sounds of nature to Huang Sihan, and she immediately collapsed completely.

She had exhausted all her strength and energy. If she hadn't been holding on, she might have fainted.

But she was still thinking about and waiting for that baby's cry... Why hasn't the baby cried yet...

"Doctor Wang?" Zhang Xingjun couldn't help but asked nervously. He looked at his wife and then at his son who had not been wiped clean and whose umbilical cord had not been cut. He seemed so small that he didn't know if he weighed 5 pounds. . But during the pregnancy, the couple and both parents did everything in place, and the nutrition was absolutely sufficient.

Dr. Wang didn't say anything. His rich experience in delivering babies made him not panic. Many babies don't cry smoothly after birth.

But the baby is a little light, I hope it's okay. Dr. Wang held the baby in one hand and patted the baby's butt with the other hand.

The baby boy with his eyes closed opened his mouth slightly, and his bloody throat slid, and he made a childish, hoarse but clearly audible sound:

"...negative choice..."

Then, the baby boy started crying, and his cry was quite clear.

Just the king

The doctors, nurses and Zhang Xingjun were all at a loss, without the joy they should have had.

…

"Push harder and harder, and the baby's head has come out."

In the delivery room, Dr. Yang, the delivery doctor, was encouraging himself. Guo Xuerui held the hand of his wife Yu Shanshan who was lying on the delivery bed, wishing that he could help her.

Yu Shanshan had exerted her utmost strength. She really didn't know that she could bear such great pain before. She didn't understand why she would feel dizzy even if she got an injection. Compared with now, injections are just mosquito bites... …

With a long cry, she tried her best again, and suddenly she vaguely heard Dr. Yang saying loudly: "Okay! The baby is out."

But Dr. Yang immediately discovered a problem, as did the nurses and Guo Xuerui. The baby boy seemed to be still sleeping and did not cry.

Guo Xuerui's heart clenched. Dr. Yang told them not to worry and patted the baby's butt.

The throat of this six-pound fat baby moved slightly, and its small arms and legs were also stretching. The open mouth suddenly made a sound, which made Guo Xuerui and Yu Shanshan's hearts tighten even more. It also made Dr. Yang stunned and hugged her. The baby's hands are almost loose. She had delivered babies for many years and had never seen anything like this before.

It wasn't crying or babbling, it was clear words.

"……draw……"

Then, the bloody and wrinkled baby flattened his mouth and let out a wail, giving the world to him.

Love the Plague Doctor.
