“Just you wait. When we see him again next year, Sean will definitely look even
cooler and more dashing than he does now!”
At that moment, the cruelty of fate had not yet fully revealed its claws.
Nina’s words touched Diana, who surprisingly felt a sense of hope for the future.
“Patient number 54, are you ready? If so, please come for your checkup,” a
doctor’s voice called through the door.
Diana glanced at the number on her slip, and quickly stood up. “I’m coming.”
This was the ultrasound examination, and it was crowded today. After a long
wait, Diana excitedly rose to her feet. Supporting her belly with her hands, she
made her way toward the examination room as she carefully avoided the
people.
“Is your bladder full? Do you feel like you have to go soon?”
“Yes,” Diana replied to the doctor as she lay down on the examination table.
“Is this your first pregnancy?”
“No.”
“Do you know you’re expecting twins?”
“Yes.”
Diana and the doctor continued their exchange.
“Doctor, my previous pregnancy was fraternal twins, so do I need to buy new
clothes for the children this time?”
This was a discreet way of asking about the gender of the twins.
The doctor glanced at her. “It’s up to you.”
After coming out of the ultrasound room, Diana muttered to Nina, “What did that
mean? Does it mean I’m getting the same gender as the previous pregnancy, or
that the old clothes from my previous pregnancy won’t fit anymore, but can still
be used?”
“You’ve gone bonkers.” Nina rolled her eyes in exasperation.” If you want to
know, just have Julian take you to the private hospital for a gender test. And I
still don’t get it. Why does Julian insist on having you queue up in a public
hospital instead of going to a private one?”
Seeing that Julian’s image in Nina’s mind was about to deteriorate, Diana
hurried to explain.
“Don’t think badly of him. I was the one who requested going to a public
hospital. Giving birth is a big deal, you know? You wouldn’t understand if you
hadn’t experienced it. Even though modern medical technology is advanced,
many mothers still don’t make it past this stage. For example, from a rare
medical emergency-an amniotic fluid embolism.
“If that happens and the doctor doesn’t act quickly, even just a few seconds can
make you miss the best window for rescue, and you could die instantly. Even if
that doesn’t happen, heavy bleeding can occur during childbirth. I’m having
twins, and it’s my second cesarean section. There’s more safety assurance in a
public hospital…”
“Stop!”
Nina had never really thought much about giving birth before. She just figured
most women have children, and with modern medical technology being so
advanced, what was so difficult about it?
Especially with a C-section. There were even people online saying that you just
need to lie there and wait for the doctor to administer anesthesia. Then, take a
nap. Once woken up, the baby would have been born.
It sounded so simple that she thought raising children and going through
pregnancy were more challenging than giving birth.
After hearing Diana’s description, she suddenly had a new appreciation for it.
Thinking about if her stomach was the one cut open with blood everywhere
made her legs go weak.
The thought that Diana had experienced this pain once before made her even
more uncomfortable.
At that time…
She wasn’t by Diana’s side.
Julian wasn’t there, either. Even though Diana had no memory of it at the time
and didn’t know she had a husband and a best friend, giving birth alone was
definitely not easy.
“It seems that throughout history, regardless of advances in medicine, women
giving birth is pretty much like passing through the gates of the underworld.”
