The Reborn Aristocrat's Daughter-Chapter 839 - 799 Anxious Family Members (1)
Chapter 839: Chapter 799 Anxious Family Members (1)
Xiao Muli was uttering words of comfort to Situ Xin, but in his heart, he was even more nervous and scared than Situ Xin, the pregnant woman about to give birth. It took a great deal of effort for him to control himself and prevent his body from trembling.
Although Situ Xin’s belly was hurting intermittently, she still sensed the fear and tension emanating from Xiao Muli.
"Yes. I, I’m fine. The baby in my stomach is also fine," Situ Xin took a deep breath and said.
Although the Situ family was thrown into chaos by Situ Xin’s sudden labor, it was fortunate that Old Madam Situ was in charge, preventing panic. Despite everyone being incredibly nervous, their actions remained orderly.
Someone was responsible for calling the hospital, informing the doctors that Situ Xin was going into labor, and they would be arriving at the hospital soon, asking the medical staff to be ready.
There was also someone in charge of notifying the Loo Family Old Master and the Xiao Family Old Master, as they had previously requested to be informed as soon as there was any news regarding Situ Xin. If they failed to notify them immediately, they would have to face the consequences from the two Old Masters.
In the car where Situ Xin was seated, aside from her husband Xiao Muli who had been by her side all along, there was also the experienced Old Madam Situ. Old Master Situ wanted to join them because he was worried about his precious granddaughter, but Old Madam Situ glared at him and said, "You old man, at a time like this, you’re still causing trouble."
That remark from Old Madam Situ made Old Master Situ obediently stand with his hands behind his back beside the car without moving.
Throughout the journey, Situ Xin leaned on Xiao Muli, with his hand tightly grasping hers. Xiao Muli’s eyes were fixed unblinkingly on Situ Xin; he dared not blink, fearing that he might miss any expression on Situ Xin’s face.
"Baby, how are you feeling?" Old Madam Situ turned around from the passenger seat, looking at Situ Xin who was leaning on Xiao Muli and asked with a hint of worry.
"Grandma, I’m much better now, not as painful as before. The intervals between the contractions seem to have gotten longer." What Situ Xin didn’t mention was that she distinctly felt the baby in her belly was no longer struggling as fiercely to come out; it seemed to have calmed down a lot.
Situ Xin didn’t know whether the three little ones in her stomach had sensed her pain and felt that it wasn’t yet the right time to be born, which is why they suddenly calmed down one by one.
"It’s good that you’re feeling better. What you’re experiencing now is still just contractions, your birth canal is probably not open yet. The first birth usually takes longer." Moreover, you are having triplets. This last phrase, Old Madam Situ only said in her heart, without uttering it aloud. freewēbnoveℓ.com
However, Old Madam Situ was truly worried. Her beloved granddaughter was carrying triplets, "Baby, I think we should opt for a cesarean section later on." Old Madam Situ only dared to speak out when she saw the entrance to the military hospital from afar.
Upon hearing Old Madam Situ’s words, Xiao Muli also agreed, saying, "Baby, I agree with Grandma’s suggestion. Let’s have a cesarean section. You are currently carrying three little babies inside. I had asked the doctors before, and they also recommended that for multiples like these, it’s safer to have a cesarean section." Xiao Muli had discussed the issue of natural birth versus cesarean section with Situ Xin before, not only between them, but also among the three families.
Everyone suggested that Situ Xin should have a cesarean section for safety reasons. However, Situ Xin insisted on natural birth. She believed that natural birth was not only good for the baby but also for the pregnant mother.
At that time, seeing Situ Xin with her big belly, no one dared to oppose her. Whatever she said was final, and they no longer discussed the topic. But now, with the birth imminent and the hospital almost in sight, Old Madam Situ and Xiao Muli brought up the old issue again.
Situ Xin knew what they were worried about. For an ordinary person carrying triplets, they wouldn’t even think about it; they would choose a cesarean section over natural birth. But she, Situ Xin, was no ordinary person. She was confident that during childbirth, she wouldn’t face any complications like dystocia and would safely deliver her three babies.
"Grandma, Muli, I still want a natural birth. I don’t want a cesarean." Situ Xin said as the labor pains gradually subsided, bringing a slight flush to her pale face, which slightly relieved Xiao Muli who had been watching her closely. "Don’t worry, I will definitely safely deliver the babies in my belly."
After Situ Xin spoke, Xiao Muli wanted to say something to persuade Situ Xin. But Old Madam Situ stopped him, knowing her granddaughter well, and understood once she decides on something, not even ten bulls could pull her back. "Alright, we are almost at the hospital now, let’s not discuss this anymore. When we get there, we’ll have the doctor check you. If she says you can have a natural birth, we won’t object and will listen to you. But if the doctor says your condition does not allow for a natural birth and you need a cesarean, you mustn’t object. Is that okay?"
Situ Xin knew her grandma was compromising. Therefore, she nodded and said, "Okay." Situ Xin had confidence in herself.
When Situ Xin and their car stopped at the entrance of the hospital, the OB/GYN doctors and nurses of the military hospital had already prepared the gurney and were waiting at the entrance. As they saw the car carrying Situ Xin stop, each of them adjusted their expressions, ready to act solemnly.
Old Madam Situ was the first to get out of the car. Followed by Xiao Muli. After getting out, Xiao Muli walked around to the other side of the car and leaned in. Then he gently lifted Situ Xin out.
Seeing the pregnant woman in Xiao Muli’s arms, the OB/GYN doctors and nurses wanted to take Situ Xin from him to push her on the gurney. However, Xiao Muli stopped them. "No need, I can carry my wife myself."
"But we need to check the condition of the pregnant woman," said the lead doctor, remembering the anxious tone and situation described in the phone call they received earlier, trying to withstand the chill emanating from Xiao Muli’s presence.
"Doctor, just let my grandson-in-law carry her," Old Madam Situ said, knowing that the face Xiao Muli shows to outsiders could almost freeze people to death. So it had to be her, the old woman, to step forth. "My granddaughter was just having contractions earlier, but it’s much better now. Once we get to the room, you can examine her. She’s carrying triplets."
Right after Old Madam Situ finished speaking, the cars that had started out a bit later had also arrived. They had driven much faster than the car Situ Xin was in.
