It's not too late to meet in the book

Sunlight filtered through the half-drawn curtains, dappling the ward, adding a touch of warmth to the pale space. Inside, Wang Jing and Su Xiaoxiao sat by the bed, their faces brimming with the tenderness and joy of new motherhood. Beside the small crib, Lei Nuo and Lin Yu stood, their eyes filled with love and anticipation for the new life. The air was filled with the faint scent of disinfectant, tinged with a hint of new hope.

The doctor, clad in a neat white coat and clutching a discharge guide, slowly entered the ward. A warm smile graced his face, his eyes radiating professionalism and care. "Wang Jing, Su Xiaoxiao, congratulations on your successful discharge. However, there are some important precautions you should be aware of upon returning home." His voice was gentle yet firm, instantly capturing everyone's attention.

Wang Jing gently patted the sleeping baby beside her, her eyes full of love. "Doctor, please tell us in detail. We will take good care of you."

The doctor nodded and began to explain in detail: "First, regarding diet, Wang Jing, your physical condition needs to gradually recover. Your diet should be light and nutritious, with plenty of fruits and vegetables, and avoid greasy and spicy foods. Su Xiaoxiao, the same goes for you. Although you are helping with care, maintaining good eating habits is beneficial for both you and the baby. Remember to ensure adequate water intake every day, which helps the body's metabolism."

Wang Jing nodded earnestly, picking up a pen and jotting down the information in her notebook. Su Xiaoxiao, beside her, typed rapidly on her phone's memo pad, both faces etched with seriousness. "Doctor, do you have any special food or recipe recommendations?" Su Xiaoxiao asked, her eyes gleaming with curiosity.

The doctor smiled and pulled a printed sheet from her pocket. "This is a simple recipe I've prepared for you. It lists nutritious meals suitable for postpartum recovery and breastfeeding mothers, as well as some basic information on baby foods. Once your baby is older, you can adjust the recipe accordingly."

Wang Jing and Su Xiaoxiao took the recipe and looked through it carefully, their hearts filled with gratitude. "Thank you so much, doctor," Wang Jing said gratefully.

"You're welcome. This is what I'm supposed to do," the doctor continued. "Next, let's talk about rest. Wang Jing, you just gave birth, and your body needs plenty of rest to recover. Get at least eight hours of sleep a day, and preferably a nap at noon. Su Xiaoxiao, help share the housework and baby-sitting duties, but also make sure to rest and avoid overexertion."

Lin Yu interrupted and said, "Doctor, we will take turns to take care of them and make sure they both get enough rest."

The doctor nodded with satisfaction. "That's good. Also, regarding the baby's care, a newborn's skin is delicate. Be especially careful when changing diapers and bathing. Use warm water and gentle baby products to avoid irritation. Also, pay attention to the baby's temperature, diet, and bowel movements. Contact me immediately if there are any abnormalities."

Su Xiaoxiao asked nervously, "Doctor, what if the baby keeps crying? We're not very good at comforting children."

The doctor patiently explained, "When a newborn cries, it's usually because they're hungry, have a wet diaper, or need a hug. You can first check whether these basic needs are being met. If not, try gently rocking or singing a nursery rhyme. Sometimes babies just need some comfort. Of course, if the crying continues or is accompanied by other symptoms, such as a fever, you should seek medical attention immediately."

Renault listened attentively, nodding occasionally. He gently touched the baby's hand, feeling an unprecedented sense of responsibility. "Doctor, we will follow your instructions and take good care of them."

The doctor smiled at everyone and said, "I'm sure you can do a great job. Finally, remember to bring your baby in for regular checkups to monitor their growth and development. If you have any questions or need help, please feel free to come back and consult."

Wang Jing and Su Xiaoxiao smiled at each other, their eyes gleaming with hope and confidence for the future. "Doctor, thank you so much. We will pay attention to it."

The doctor packed up his things and prepared to leave. "You're welcome. I wish you and your family good health and happiness, and that your baby thrives."

With the doctor's departure, the atmosphere in the ward became warmer and more peaceful. Lei Nuo and Lin Yu began packing their bags, while Wang Jing and Su Xiaoxiao quietly discussed their plans for returning home. Occasionally, they glanced down at the little life in the crib, their hearts filled with infinite love.

"Jingjing, what do you want to eat? I'll make it for you when I get back." Su Xiaoxiao asked softly, her face full of concern.

"Xiaoxiao, I want to eat the steamed fish and vegetable soup you made. They seem very light and nutritious." Wang Jing replied with a smile, her eyes revealing her dependence on her friend.

Renault jokingly said, "It seems that I have to learn more about cooking in the future. I can't always rely on you two."

Lin Yu smiled and patted his shoulder, "Don't worry, I'm here. Let's learn together and take care of this little guy together."

Inside the ward, the sun still shone brightly, and laughter and love intertwined, creating a heartwarming scene. In this small space, everyone was filled with hope and anticipation for the future. They knew that as long as they followed the doctor's advice and provided attentive care, this little life would grow up healthily in love.

"Okay, everything is packed up, let's get ready to go home." Renault's voice broke the brief silence, and everyone nodded, their eyes flashing with longing for a new life.

"Let's go, take our little baby and welcome our new life." Wang Jing gently picked up the baby with a happy smile on her face. Everyone followed her and walked out of the ward together, heading towards a future full of hope.

"Did you remember what the doctor said? We must take good care of these two babies." Su Xiaoxiao looked back as she walked, and confirmed with Wang Jing and Renault again, her face full of seriousness.

"Remember, don't worry, we will." Renault answered firmly, holding Wang Jing's hand tightly. The backs of the four people gradually disappeared in the corridor, leaving behind a series of cheerful footsteps, as well as infinite longing and expectations for the future.
