Chapter 180 Giving birth
“Oh, I see your belly has grown a lot again. You should be giving birth soon, right?”
Li Lanqiu didn’t expect to pass by the trading house to see Chen Li. I met Lin Shu again in the store.
Gu Jiuzai was checking accounts with Chen Li. He just glanced at Li Lanqiu who came in and stopped paying attention.
Lin Shu smiled and asked her to sit down, "Why are you free to come here today? Are you still used to working in the restaurant over there?"
"I'm used to it. Restaurants tend to be busy during meal time. This period is the rest time. You can go out and walk around."
"Oh, sit down quickly, drink a glass of water and rest for a while. We are outside today. It's still quite hot to walk." Lin Shu picked up the kettle on the table and poured her a glass of water.
"Okay, thank you." Li Lanqiu's eyes moved around Lin Shu's belly: "I look at your belly as if you are carrying a son."
Lin Shufu She laughed and said, "The late pregnancy is very hard. Whether it's a son or a daughter, I just wonder when they will be born. It’s hard to walk or work with a big ball. It’s hard to do anything. It’s still tiring.”
Li Lanqiu couldn’t help laughing: “Haha, you think he’s tired in the belly now, waiting for the baby to be born.” You'll know when it comes out, and when the time comes you'll be busy and want to stuff it back and remake it."
Although I am tired in my stomach, at least my life is peaceful without the noise of the children.
When you are born, it is not determined by your will.
Lin Shu thought of the trivial things after the birth of the child and laughed, "You are right. After the child is born, you have to coax him when he is hungry, poops and cries, otherwise he will cause trouble."
“Yes, it’s not easy to raise a child.” Li Lanqiu glanced and recognized Gu Jiu, who was really working, asked with a smile: "He doesn't trust you and takes you with him when he goes out? When will you give birth?"
"It's almost time. I'm pregnant with twins and the due date is not even It must be accurate." As Lin Shu was speaking, the child in her belly kicked hard, causing her stomach to ache.
"Twins? No wonder I saw that your belly is bigger than that of a normal pregnant woman. It turns out to be a double yolk. Congratulations!" Li Lanqiu was really happy for Lin Shu. At the same time, the risk of giving birth to twins was doubled. "Have you been to the hospital for a checkup? Doctor Did you tell me whether the fetal position is correct?"
Lin relieved the pain and smiled: "Everything is normal during the prenatal checkup."
"That's good." Lan Qiu felt relieved, "I came here to see Chen Li. Since she is busy, I'll come back next time."
"Don't sit here for a while. Anyway, there is nothing in your store now."
Li Lanqiu shook his head, "I won't sit down anymore. I have to go to the Bailou Building to buy something. I want to send something back to the children at home tomorrow."
Chen Li turned around and said: "You have time to come over and play. I won't accompany you today if I have something to do."
Li Lanqiu: "Okay, you are busy with your business."
Lin Shujian She really had something to do, so she stood up and saw her off: "Then I'll see you off."
Li Lanqiu looked He touched her big belly and quickly stopped her: "No, you sit here and rest. I will come to play often in the future, so there is no need to be so polite."
As soon as she finished her words, Lin Shu felt her stomach ache again. Painful, "Hey, these two children are a little naughty today."
Li Lanqiu noticed her frown and asked worriedly: "Are you okay? Sit down quickly. I really don't need you to take care of me. As the due date is approaching, the baby will move more diligently."
Lin Shu this This is the first time I know how to listen to advice. He sat back and said, "Okay, then walk slowly."
"Okay, take good care of your fetus, and I will come see you next time."
Li Lanqiu left, and after a while, Lin Shu felt the cramping in her stomach again.
“Have you two finished settling the accounts?”
Gu Jiu raised his head and glanced at her side, and asked: "Right now, there is one more thing, what's the matter? Are you tired of waiting?"
Lin Shu held her huge belly and took a deep breath, not letting herself Nervous, "There's something wrong with my stomach today. It's been cramping a few times. Do you think I'm about to give birth?"
As soon as these words came out, other people in the store were shocked.
Gu Jiugang finished calculating the accounts and before he had time to sign, he threw the account book away after listening to her words and stood up.
He rushed to Lin Shu and asked nervously: "I'm about to give birth? What's your method of pain?"
Lin Shu's stomach calmed down now, and she rolled her eyes at him. She asked as if he had experience, "I don't know, it's just a throbbing pain every now and then."
"Don't worry about whether I'm going to give birth. Let's go to the hospital first." Gu Jiu had rehearsed Lin Shu's attack countless times in his mind. What should he do?
He asked Chen Li to take care of Lin Shu first. He had to go back to the compound and drive. It was impossible for a pregnant woman having an attack to ride to the hospital on a bicycle.
"You hold on here for a while, I'll go home and drive, and bring the supplies for the delivery."
Lin Shu prepared the delivery bag half a month ago. When Gu Jiu went back, he only had to pick it up and leave without having to look for everything.
"Go quickly, I'll take care of you here." Chen Li rushed away. She had given birth to a child before, so she didn't panic.
Gu Jiu ran out of the store, looked left and right at the road, and then rushed towards the gate of the compound opposite.
Chen Li looked at the figure running out and said with a smile: "Tall people have advantages and long legs. It is not difficult to run fast."
Lin Shu smiled and let Chen Li helped her pack snacks. The baby was not born so soon and they could be used to replenish energy later.
“Use a bag to help me pack some canned fruits, some White Rabbit toffees, some red bean cakes, biscuits, etc., in case I don’t have the energy to have a baby later. , I can eat these to replenish my energy.”
"Oh, yes, that's right. Being in the hospital is not better than being at home. You can cook noodles to replenish your strength at home. I'll pretend it for you right now." Chen Li quickly got busy.
"How often does your stomach hurt now?"
"It's not so soon, so don't be nervous." Lin Shu comforted her.
As soon as Chen Li packed up the snacks, the sound of car brakes sounded outside.
Not long after, Gu Jiu strode in. Seeing Lin Shu's relaxed expression, he breathed a sigh of relief, "I'll help you to the car."
Chen Li followed with a bag of snacks. When she saw Wang Suzhen in the car, she smiled and handed the snacks to her, "Since my aunt is here, I will stay and look at the store."
Gu Jiukan He glanced at the several clerks in the store and realized that if Chen Li left, there would be no one to cashier in the store, so he waved his hand and said, "You don't need to go."
After Lin Shu sat down and closed the car door, he immediately turned to drive. He sat down in the room, started the car and drove towards the hospital.
Wang Suzhen stared at Lin Shu's belly, then observed Lin Shu's face, and asked: "Does the pain happen frequently now?"
Lin Shu shook his head, "Not often, probably It won’t happen so quickly, don’t worry, drive slowly.”
Gu Jiu swallowed hard and saw Lin Shu's face in the rearview mirror. Why did he feel that he was more nervous than her.
Although most people in this era prefer to give birth at home, there are still many pregnant women giving birth in obstetric departments in hospitals.
It was already an hour after Gu Jiu completed the hospitalization procedures and settled Lin Shu in the ward.
Lin Shu's stomach dropped, the pain became more intense, and various symptoms began to appear.
After a while, she said she wanted to go to the toilet, but she couldn't pull herself out after going to the toilet, neither sitting nor lying down. This time she finally realized what it meant to be restless. Gu Jiu accompanied her in and out. Before the child was born, he was out of breath from exhaustion.
Having no other choice, Lin Shu started eating again to build up strength for herself.
Fortunately, my sister-in-law He Chunru knew that she was about to give birth, so she brought a portion of porridge and several large meat buns from home.
Only because he didn’t eat much porridge and meat buns, Lin Shu was in so much pain that he really couldn’t bear it.
At this time, Gu Jiu's comfort had no effect at all. Lin Shu felt as if his whole body was about to be torn apart.
Fortunately, this child was as caring as the previous life. The delivery room was pushed into a super-fast labor process and was born in just over an hour.
When the doctor cleaned the child and heard the child's cry and told her that the eldest child was a boy, Lin Shu just wanted to ask the doctor to bring the child over and let her have a look.
But before she could speak, there was pain in her stomach again. This was the birth of her second child.
The birth of the second child went smoothly. Before the doctor could help her, the two children were already wrapped and carried out.
Lin Shu was extremely tired and fell asleep before the delivery room.
In her sleep, Lin Shu seemed to dream of her grown-up child turning into a baby, grinning silly at her.
Just when she was so happy that she wanted to reach out and hug him, for some reason, the good boy suddenly burst into tears regardless of her. No matter how she coaxed him, it was useless. He seemed to be accusing her of abandoning him in her previous life and letting him Becoming a motherless child.
Lin Shu felt anxious and woke up immediately.
As soon as I woke up, there was the loud cry of a baby in the ward. When I looked sideways, I saw Wang Suzhen walking around in the ward with a baby in her arms.
"Come, come, I brought warm water back. Mom, give our daughter some water to clear her stomach first." Gu Jiu ran in from outside holding a cup.
Then the mother and son were busy waiting for the baby, and they didn't even notice that Lin Shu woke up.
“I don’t know who your little girl will follow. She’s too impatient. When she’s hungry and has nothing to eat, she’ll yell at the top of her lungs. It’s so scary.”
“Whoever you follow, I’m sure. Just follow me."
Seeing that the baby was finally quiet after being fed water, Gu Jiu breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and turned around to meet Lin Shu's eyes.
"Shu Shu, you're awake."
Gu Jiu's surprised voice diverted everyone's attention.
"Brother and sister, wake up, come and see your son. I don't know how well-behaved he is. No matter how loud his sister yells, he just pretends not to hear and sleeps so peacefully." Sister-in-law He Chunru held the baby boy in her arms. Sitting in the corner, when he saw Lin Shu woke up, he hurriedly came over with the child in his arms.
Gu Jiu helped Lin Shu lean against the bedside and poured half a cup of warm water for her to drink first before letting He Chunru put the blue swaddling bag into her arms.
The little baby in the swaddling clothes is wrinkled and does not look like Gu Jiu or her. It should be said that the two looks are a combination.
Looking at the baby sleeping peacefully in the swaddling clothes, Lin Shu's expression was dull and his heartbeat was pounding. Why did the little baby look so like the big boy in his previous life.
He Chunru smiled and said: "This child is really a master. He chose the two of you for your appearance."
Lin Shu lowered his head and looked at it carefully, and asked uncertainly: "Sister-in-law, why can't I see that? What does it look like to me? What does it look like to Gu Jiu? ?”
“It’s so obvious that you can’t tell, these lips look like yours, and these ears look like yours”
“Wow wow wow”
Before He Chunru could continue, another little The baby couldn't wait any longer and started crying again.
Gu Jiu couldn't care less about studying his eldest son's facial features and hurriedly went to help make milk. While making milk, he didn't forget to explain to Lin Shu: "The doctor said that after the baby is born, we should give him water first and then breastfeed. My daughter is impatient, so she should be I'm so hungry."
Lin Shu looked at the baby who was clenching her fists and sucking milk hard, "What's this? The voice was so loud, and those who didn’t know it thought it was a baby boy.”
Wang Suzhen secretly laughed in her heart: “She just follows her father’s temper.”
After eating enough milk, the baby girl fell asleep. Lin Shu quickly asked Gu Jiu to make milk. Don't just focus on the little one and forget about the sensible big boy.
The two were born together. The younger one is hungry, and the older one should be hungry too.
Gu Jiu soaked the milk, took the baby from his sister-in-law He Chunru's arms, and tried to feed him himself.
He Chunru taught him the correct posture to hold a baby, and after adjusting it for a while, he managed to pass the correct posture.
The little baby twisted his body and opened his eyes helplessly. His vision was blurry and shadowy.
It would wake him up even though he was sleeping, but before he could complain, a pacifier was stuffed into his little mouth.
"Is my breastfeeding posture wrong? Why do I think he dislikes me?" Gu Jiu joked. In fact, he really felt disliked at that moment.
He Chunru: "He is drinking, so feed him like this."
Wang Suzhen put the sleeping baby on the empty bed next to him and joked: "You should quickly learn how to make milk powder for feeding and changing diapers." Wash your butt and help during the confinement period. Lin Shu can’t handle the two babies alone at night.” If Lin Shu doesn't learn it for a long time, this confinement will be very difficult.
"I learn, I learn, you teach me more." Gu Jiu nodded with a smile.
Up to now, when he looked at the two children, he was still a little confused, and felt incredible in his heart. Last year, he was a single man, but this year he is a father of two children.
Life is amazing.
When Dabao also fell asleep, Gu Jiu handed the mother and son to Wang Suzhen and He Chunru to take care of them, and then took the lunch box to the hospital cafeteria to help Lin Shu get a nutritious meal.
Wang Suzhen explained: "Shu Shu, just make do with this meal for now. I will send you a confinement meal at home in the evening."
Lin Shu looked at the lean meat. Vermicelli soup, smiled: "It's okay, something unexpected happened today. It's normal that the family is not ready. This broth is not bad."
"You drink some to satisfy your stomach first. I have stewed chicken soup at home. Wait. I’ll pick it up later.”
Gu Jiu took care of Lin Shu's meal, thinking that he would go back later to pick it up quickly. If he waited for it to be delivered from home, he didn't know how long it would take.
Natural delivery requires two to three days of hospitalization and observation in the hospital. Lin Shu has been paying attention to the baby's condition for the past two or three days, but he doesn't expect that the little guy only eats and sleeps, and usually doesn't open his eyes at all.
After she was discharged from the hospital and returned home, she had not yet figured out the little guy's condition.
Sometimes, Lin Shu even thought that the little guy was avoiding her on purpose, but seeing that he was eating well and sleeping soundly, she felt that she was overthinking it. It was normal for a baby to either eat or sleep.
Wang Suzhen and He Chunru also lamented that the little guy was so sensible, and it was much easier to worry about than the second child who could only howl when he was hungry.
