297 Giving Birth (1)

After a few days, Gu Qingming’s due date was getting closer.

Gu Qingming’s round belly had already become sharp and slowly turned down.

Gu Qingming only found out after asking. This meant that a child could be born at any time.

Everything that needed to be prepared at home was ready.

She had already washed the baby’s clothes and blanket and sunbathed. She also prepared milk bottles, diapers, and so on.

At least two people had to stay at home now, and one of them had to be a man. If the amniotic fluid broke first, he had to carry her to prevent it from flowing out quickly.

Grandma Shi asked, “Do you feel any discomfort, like a stomachache or something?”

Gu Qingming shook her head and said, “Other than my abdomen feeling heavy, I don’t feel anything at the moment!”

Grandma Shi instructed, “Then you have to be careful. Other than your abdomen feeling heavy, did you see any red or amniotic fluid?”

Gu Qingming had been pregnant in her previous life, but she did not know the process of giving birth.

She had only heard of abdominal pains during childbirth, amniotic sack breaking, and so on.

Previously, Gu Qingming had been looking forward to the birth of this child with a normal attitude.

However, in the past few days, as the time of the child’s birth approached, she felt increasingly nervous.

She desperately wanted to see the child from her previous life. She wanted to know what it looked like and give it the best environment to grow up in.

However, at the same time, she felt guilty toward this child from her previous life. She felt that her fear of loving this child had turned into regret and guilt. This was very unfair to the child.

Knowing that their daughter was about to give birth, Gu Jianguo and his wife pushed aside all matters and rushed over to accompany their daughter.

Under this nervous situation, Gu Qingming’s belly finally started to move.

As the fairy said, the child was born on the second day of February.

On the first day of February, Gu Qingming experienced bleeding.

Then, the family packed their things and rushed to the county hospital.

The obstetricians were already waiting at the entrance of the hospital.

Then, they began to perform a prenatal checkup on Gu Qingming’s body and fetus.

Yes, everything was normal and natural birth was not a problem at all!

Besides, Gu Qingming also asked for a natural birth as she wanted to experience the process of giving birth.

“Normally, after bleeding, the child will be born within twenty-four to forty-eight hours, but some people give birth within three to five days or even a week,” a gynecologist said. “The mother’s condition is good now. The uterus has begun to soften, and she’s expected to give birth tonight.”

Gu Qingming was nervous. She asked, “Doctor Chen, I can give birth tonight, but I don’t feel abdominal pains. Do I often hear people say that I would experience abdominal pains when I give birth?”

Doctor Chen laughed and said, “Haha, there are those whose abdomens hurt for ten days to half a month before giving birth. There are also those whose children dote on the mothers and the latter will give birth after a while. Miss Gu, don’t worry. You’re in good health. You can go home first. Your stomach will hurt when you have contractions. When the contractions happen every five minutes, you’ll be about to give birth. You’ll have to go to the delivery room to wait for delivery! Miss Gu, don’t be nervous. When you’re fine, you can walk around and climb the stairs. It’ll be easier for you to give birth naturally.”

Gu Qingming nodded and said, “Alright, Doctor Chen, I understand!”

Before her stomach hurt, Gu Qingming did not go through the hospitalization procedures.

Mrs. Gu and Grandma accompanied Gu Qingming to the park for a walk. When it was lunchtime, they went back to eat.

When Gu Qingming decided to give birth in this small county, Gu Jianguo spent three million to buy an independent villa. He used the best international environmental renovation materials and ventilated the villa for half a year. She could already move in.

After the family finished lunch, when Gu Qingming was taking an afternoon nap, she suddenly felt abdominal pain.

Gu Qingming thought it was an illusion. After all, it had only been a moment and she did not realize that it was the anticipated pain.

About ten minutes later, her abdomen hurt again.

She immediately jolted awake.

However, her abdomen only hurt a little.

Gu Qingming immediately got up and rushed to the living room. Mrs. Gu, Mr. Gu, and her grandmother were chatting. Seeing Gu Qingming suddenly run out, they were shocked.

“Mingming, what’s wrong? Is your abdomen starting to hurt?” Mrs. Gu immediately went forward to support her.

Gu Qingming said her feelings. “I feel a little pain, it’s like someone kicked me in the stomach, but it will hurt again after a long time. At first, I thought it was my imagination, but I realized that it wasn’t.”

As the women came over, they smiled and said, “Haha, child, you’re having contractions. However, the contractions have just started, and the interval between the pains is a little long. Let’s wait first. When the contractions happen every five minutes, we’ll have to go to the hospital!”

Second Aunt smiled and said, “It seems that Doctor Chen is right. She should give birth tonight. Then I have to make dinner early. After dinner, we’ll go to the hospital to wait for the delivery. Only when you’re full at night will you have the strength to give birth.”

First Aunt nodded and said, “Then I’ll go and help!”

Grandma said, “Ming’er, let’s take a walk in the courtyard or the park. Or if you want to buy something or eat something, hurry up and do it. After giving birth, you might have to avoid eating some items!”

Gu Qingming smiled and shook her head. “Grandma, I don’t have anything I want to eat now!”

“Alright then, let’s go for a walk! Walk around more. When you feel the pain in your abdomen getting stronger, you have to tell me,” Grandma said.

“Yes, I understand, Grandma!” Gu Qingming nodded.

However, God knew that she was more nervous than anyone else when she gave birth for the first time.

Mrs. Gu and her grandmother accompanied Gu Qingming around. As Gu Qingming accompanied them, she communicated with the little fairy with her consciousness.

“Little fairy, do you think my child will be born tonight?”

“Yes!” The little fairy said with certainty, “On February 2nd, the dragon raises its head, Little Master will definitely be born at that time. Master, you don’t have to worry! You won’t have a painful birth like others. You will only be in pain for a while!”

Gu Qingming asked suspiciously, “Why do you say that?”

The little fairy patted its small chest and said, “Of course, it’s because your physique has already improved. Your body has undergone marrow and meridians cleansing, and your quality is strong. Ordinary pain won’t affect you. Giving birth is said to be a tenth-level pain, but when this pain falls on you, it’s only 30 to 40%. Master, don’t worry. It won’t hurt very much.”

Hearing the little fairy’s words, Gu Qingming felt more at ease.

It was a normal process for a woman to give birth!

Some people said that it was the process of walking through the gates of hell.

Some people said that this was a process of a woman’s rebirth.

Some people said that this was the process of a woman becoming a mother!

At the same time, this was also the process of the birth of a little angel.

She was looking forward to the birth of her little angel the most!
