◎Give birth◎
In the past, Zhao Yue liked to act old and dull, but now Cui Wenxi likes to make him look brighter. He should wear pink and tender clothes at a young age to live up to his pretty face.
Girls all love beauty, and even Queen Ma feels that her son is more eye-catching than before. In the past, he mostly wore dark colors, plain white or light gray, but now he wears all kinds of reds and bright colors on his body. He really has a certain temperament. Arrogant and charming.
Zhao Yue was desperate. He simply couldn't look directly at Cui Wenxi's aesthetics. He couldn't understand why she became so strange overnight. What was even more desperate was that everyone around her thought she looked good-looking.
No, at the Dragon Boat Festival family dinner, Yong Ning looked at his lotus color and praised him repeatedly, saying: "Erlang should wear bright colors. He used to be old-fashioned and not angry at all. He should look like a young man at a young age."
Zhao Yue: "..."
What should I tell him
Even the saint felt that he was much more lively and praised: "Erlang looks good."
Cui Wenxi, who was sitting aside, covered her mouth. She was in the third trimester of pregnancy. She wore colorful silk to ward off evil spirits around her wrists. They drank realgar wine, but she could only drink soup.
The weather was hot now, and she couldn't stand the noise, so she went to the side hall to rest at the end of the family banquet.
Pingyang came over to accompany her, touched her swollen belly curiously, and said, "She must be about to give birth."
Cui Wenxi said "hmm" and said, "Maybe it's just a few days. I really wish I could give birth as soon as possible so that I can be relieved."
Pingyang said sternly: "The Taiyuan Hospital must be on call at all times and cannot be careless at all."
Cui Wenxi smiled and said: "Aniang has made arrangements, and now we have found two wet nurses."
When it comes to wet nurses, there are a lot to ask for.
After all, the child she gave birth to was a prince or a princess. The two wet nurses she invited were personally selected by Empress Ma. Not only did they have to be pleasing to the eye and have no physical problems, they also had to be naked and inspected carefully. The teeth and breasts should also be in good shape. There are many conditions.
Cui Wenxi had little experience in this area, so he left it to Queen Ma to handle it.
She was about to give birth, Wen Po had already moved into the palace, and the Imperial Hospital was on standby, waiting for the baby to be born.
Whether it is the little princess or the little prince, they are the first children she and Zhao Yue have grown up, and they are always full of expectations.
Cui Wenxi has no obsession with men and women. If he is a little prince, he hopes to get a little princess. If he is a little princess, he hopes to get a little prince and wants to make a good one.
Raising sons and daughters can be fun.
This is Cui Wenxi’s expectation for her children.
However, what surprised her was that when they really came, she deeply realized what it meant to be a parent in despair. Not only did she feel this way, but so did Zhao Yue.
As expected, one afternoon a few days after the Dragon Boat Festival, Cui Wenxi felt a dull pain in her stomach.
Queen Ma had given birth experience and told her about the symptoms that would occur before giving birth so that she would have peace of mind.
At first, the stomach pain was irregular and not particularly uncomfortable. When Cui Wenxi talked to Fang Ling, Fang Ling couldn't help but become nervous and said, "I'm afraid I'm going to give birth."
Cui Wenxi also had a vague guess, "It should be coming."
Fang Ling hurriedly sent someone to inform Queen Ma and the Prince. Soon Queen Ma came over. After asking about her situation, she ordered: "Go and find Po Po. We are waiting for you at any time."
The palace man responded and hurried down to ask for Wen Po.
Queen Ma was afraid that she would be nervous and worried, so she comforted her: "Don't be afraid of Chang Yue. Giving birth is actually not too difficult, it's just like going to the toilet."
Cui Wenxi is not nervous, she is looking forward to unloading the goods.
Later, Zhao Yue rushed over from the Political Affairs Hall and asked hurriedly: "Where are the people from the Tai Hospital, are they here?"
Queen Ma: "Look at how anxious you are, how can you be so quick? If you see redness or water breaks, let's pay more attention to it. You, a grown man, just step aside and don't cause any trouble."
Zhao Yue: "I'm worried that Yuanniang will suffer."
Cui Wenxi didn't care about this, but asked: "It's such a hot day, can I still wash and shower after giving birth?"
The nun in the palace responded: "Don't worry, madam. You can take a bath and wash yourself. Washing your body with ginger and mugwort boiled water can drive away the cold. Don't catch a cold and let the cold wind blow."
Cui Wenxi felt relieved and said, "That's good, otherwise I have to cover up the stink."
Her focus made Queen Ma dumbfounded. Seeing that she was in good condition, she felt a little relieved.
After all, they were two young people. Even though Wen Po and people from the Taiyuan Hospital were there, Queen Ma was still worried and did not go back at night, but stayed in Yong'an Palace.
No, Cui Wenxi saw Hong in the middle of the night.
They originally thought it was going to be soon, but they never expected that there was no movement for a day or two after seeing Hong, so the hospital gave her an inducing labor soup. During this period, Zhao Yue was afraid that she would be scared, so he specially ordered people to invite Jin to the palace to accompany her, thinking With her mother by her side, she would feel more at ease.
This small detail still touched Cui Wenxi. Having his own mother accompany him during the birth made him feel more at ease.
In the evening, her water broke, and Cui Wenxi felt that the labor pains became more obvious and regular.
So a group of people stayed at Yong'an Palace, brightly lit, waiting to welcome the arrival of the newborn.
Po Wen asked Cui Wenxi to eat more while she was not in pain, because giving birth would consume physical strength.
After struggling until midnight, Po Wen checked her condition, opened the cervix, and entered the delivery room. Queen Ma told her that she would give birth vertically, which allowed her to stand or squat.
Po Wen was telling her how to exert force, while Jin and Empress Ma were calming her down. Outside the door, there were crowds of palace people and doctors from Taiyuan Hospital.
Zhao Yue was anxious and walked back and forth with her hands behind her back.
After a while, Zhao Junqi came over. This was a great joy for them. Both men and women were the eldest sons or daughters.
Since birth, he has been infinitely loved.
When they were anxious, Cui Wenxi in the delivery room first gave birth standing up, but after struggling for a long time, she couldn't come out, so she resorted to squatting.
I don't know if she found the right method or if she was just lucky. Squatting is easier than standing.
Na Wenpo was rich in experience. From time to time she would tell her how to use clever force, and also told her not to use too much force to prevent tearing.
Cui Wenxi did as he was told, and with Jin by his side, he was not too frightened mentally. He squatted and worked hard with teacups, and finally squeezed his head out.
Jin said happily: "It's out! It's out!"
While protecting the fetus, Po Wen taught her how to exert force.
Not long after that, the child was successfully born, and the cries rang out in the delivery room, and people were overjoyed.
Wenpo first checked the baby's mouth, nose and body, and then cut the umbilical cord after confirming that everything was normal. Then she handed the baby to the nanny next to her to wipe off the amniotic fluid and wrap it in swaddling clothes.
Mammy smiled and told Queen Ma that it was a boy. She happily said, "Thank you Yuanniang for your hard work."
Now that the placenta has not been completely discharged, Wen Po is holding on to the umbilical cord. With the final uterine contraction, the placenta comes out little by little. Wen Po very carefully checks whether it is complete and confirms that there is no abnormality in the entire placenta. The birth is considered complete.
Cui Wenxi was exhausted, so Fang Ling and her grandmother hurriedly helped her to lie down on her bed.
The delivery room was heavily stained with blood, and everyone was performing their duties. Faang Ling used warm water to wipe the blood from Cui Wenxi's body behind the screen.
Empress Ma brought the child over to show her and said, "Erlang was very ugly when he was born. This child was born well and has no wrinkles at all."
Cui Wenxi turned his head and looked. He was born well, with very pretty features and fair skin.
Zhao Yue outside was relieved when she heard that mother and son were safe.
Zhao Junqi hurriedly went to see his grandson. Zhao Yue wanted to enter the delivery room, but was blocked. He could only move forward to look at the infant child. After all, he found it strange and smiled like a fool.
Empress Ma sent someone to nurse Cui Wenxi, and then went into the delivery room to check Cui Wenxi's condition. After the room was tidied up, the imperial doctor went in to check her pulse and see if there was anything abnormal about her.
Mrs. Jin stood aside, holding Cui Wenxi's hand, not to mention how happy she was in her heart. She had shouldered the blame for seven years and spent so much time seeking medical advice, but now she finally got what she wanted and had the continuation of her life.
Cui Wenxi's pulse is currently stable and there is nothing abnormal. The imperial doctor on the other side will check the baby's physical condition.
The boy weighs just over five pounds, has sound limbs and good facial features, and can eat and excrete. Right now, mother and son are truly safe.
The next day, the imperial doctor came to diagnose Ping'an pulse as usual. Cui Wenxi was weak after childbirth and needed to adjust her diet before taking supplements.
The weather is hot now, and even though there is an ice mirror in the palace, she still breaks out in sweat. Xiang Ling uses warm ginger and mugwort water to scrub her body, and puts on clean and fresh gauze clothes, which makes her feel much more relaxed.
Cui Wenxi was in a good mood after the baby she had been carrying for several months was finally removed. She no longer had to hold the baby while sleeping at night.
She feels that the postpartum experience is not too bad, mainly because there are many people around to help her, and she does not need to take care of the child, let alone stay up late to breastfeed.
The imperial doctor checked Ping An's pulse every day and observed her physical condition at any time. The child was taken care of by two wet nurses, and her own mother accompanied her to talk. Zhao Yue was as tired as usual. She only needed to take good care of her body. Nothing else mattered. Do not care.
Good.
This kind of confinement period like a rich woman doesn't seem too bad at the moment. Although she can't go out to enjoy the breeze, the bedroom is big. If she gets tired from lying down, she can close the doors and windows of other halls. They are interconnected, and she can go there from here. , there are hundreds of square meters for her to wander around.
If it's too hot, add two more ice cubes.
There was someone to take care of her diet and she had a good rest at night. Cui Wenxi was afraid that she would not be able to lose weight, so she was very restrained in eating and did not dare to take supplements vigorously.
Sometimes when she gets bored, Zhao Yue will play chess with her and read the county annals.
Jin also stayed in the palace for nearly ten days before returning to his home. Currently, the child is being raised in the East Palace. The saint is busy naming it, and Queen Ma comes to see it every day.
Xu is the nurse of a wet nurse, and the child has grown a lot stronger after being born for more than ten days. However, jaundice now appears, and the imperial doctor said that it needs to be exposed to the morning sun and given more water to make it go away.
While sleeping, Zhao Yue tried to hug him, like a hot potato, which made Cui Wenxi burst into laughter.
At first, neither of them had any special feelings for the little person. Even Cui Wenxi didn't have the so-called overflowing maternal love, so he felt quite strange. Sometimes it felt like a dream, and suddenly there was someone with the same blood as him. Connected concerns.
No, Zhao Yue was even more miraculous than her. When the child was fast asleep in the cradle, he squatted aside and saw a few lanugo hairs emerging from his head, and couldn't help but reach out and poke them.
The lanugo was as soft as wool, and he squatted in front of the cradle and poked at it from time to time, as if playing a strange trick.
So Cui Wenxi sat on the couch and read the county annals all afternoon, and saw that the old man was like a fool, poking the lanugo hair coming out of his hat from time to time...
