Back to high school, Peking University is beckoning me

Ruan Fuxi helped Lu Youning get an ultrasound, feeling very guilty. "I'm sorry, honey. It's my fault for not noticing that you didn't have your period."

"No need to say sorry, my period is often delayed, and we didn't even know we were pregnant, so the baby will be fine."

After the B-ultrasound, Lu Youning looked at the report:

"Two gestational sacs were seen in the uterine cavity, both containing fetal buds and primitive heart tube beating."

"The ultrasound shows the gestational age is 6 weeks and 1 day early."

Lu Youning gently stroked her belly, looked up at Ruan Fuxi, the smile on her face growing wider and wider, and murmured, "Twins!"

Ruan Fuxi was very surprised and took the report.

He carefully reached out his hand and gently placed it on her belly, his voice trembling slightly with excitement: "Really? We are going to have two babies?"

Filled with joy, the two hurried to see a doctor with the ultrasound results.

The doctor looked at the report and said, "The B-ultrasound shows twins. So far, the embryos are developing well and the implantation position is also very good.

However, the first three months are critical. You should get more rest, eat a balanced diet, avoid strenuous exercise, and remember to have regular prenatal checkups.

And folic acid supplements are also necessary.”

Ruan Fuxi and Lu Youning listened carefully to the doctor's instructions, feeling happy but also a little worried.

Ruan Fuxi held Lu Youning's hand tightly and said, "Don't worry, doctor. We will pay close attention."

Back in the car, Ruan Fuxi suddenly hugged Lu Youning into his arms, "Thank you, honey."

Lu Youning reached out and hugged him, "You're welcome, husband."

When they got home, they told their parents the good news.

Ms. Liao's eyes were red with excitement. She held Lu Youning's hand and kept saying, "That's great, that's great, Ningning. You are a great contributor to our family. We have two babies at once."

Father Ruan also smiled from ear to ear, "Youning, thank you for your hard work. If there is anything you want to eat, Dad will buy it for you."

On the phone, Lu's mother kept reminding Lu Youning which foods she could eat and which foods she should avoid.

He also specifically mentioned that the house could not be renovated or moved before Lu Youning gave birth.

Lu Youning nodded repeatedly. At this time, she would rather believe it, after all, it was about the baby.

After attending Gu Siyuan and Lu Yixiao's wedding, I returned to Beijing.

In order to take good care of Lu Youning and the baby in her belly, Ruan Fuxi went to the bookstore specifically.

I bought a bunch of books about nutritional supplements, care, prenatal education and parenting knowledge for pregnant mothers.

Every day, he would pick up and drop off Lu Youning to and from get off work, and at night, the two of them would lie on the bed and study these parenting books together.

Considering that Lu Youning was pregnant with twins, Ruan Fuxi was worried that she would be too tired, so she suggested that she take a leave directly.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Youning refused. She felt that it was just the beginning and it would not be too late to take a vacation later in the month.

When I was two months pregnant, morning sickness came unexpectedly.

She knew that some pregnant women would vomit and some would not, mainly due to differences in individual physical constitutions.

But Lu Youning didn't expect her to vomit so violently. Her nose was extremely sensitive and she couldn't smell anything.

Not to mention the range hood, I can't smell the aroma of food, and even the hot steam from the shower makes me feel nauseous and want to vomit.

He vomited everything he ate every day, and finally even vomited water and bile.

Ruan Fuxi was extremely anxious and rushed Lu Youning to the hospital.

The doctor diagnosed it as hyperemesis gravidarum and recommended that Lu Youning be hospitalized for observation and treatment to prevent dehydration and electrolyte imbalance.

In the end, Lu Youning was hospitalized for half a month to protect the fetus, and now she had to take a leave of absence.

Ruan Fuxi directly handed over the company's affairs to his partner and took care of Lu Youning throughout the process.

After Ms. Liao found out, she scolded Ruan Fuxi and went straight to Beijing with her luggage to take care of Lu Youning.

She prepared different kinds of food and drinks every day just to get Lu Youning to eat more.

Even so, Lu Youning still couldn't eat and kept vomiting until May when she felt slightly better. In two months, Lu Youning lost more than ten pounds.

At night, Ruan Fuxi hugged Lu Youning and looked at her thin face, his heart full of heartache. "Wife, it's enough to give birth to this child. You suffered too much."

Lu Youning raised her eyes, her eyes full of tenderness, "Okay, two babies are enough for us."

"Baby, stop bothering your mother, or I'll spank you when you get out."

Ruan Fuxi placed his left hand on her belly and warned the baby in her belly in a stern tone.

As soon as she finished speaking, her stomach suddenly moved, and Lu Youning exclaimed, "Honey, the baby is moving?"

"Really? Let me listen." Ruan Fuxi said, putting his ear against her belly.

"Baby, I'm your daddy. You have to be good. Mommy and Daddy love you very much." As he said this, he kissed his belly.

Then, the belly moved a few more times, as if it understood what its father said.

Ruan Fuxi stepped up his efforts and started a conversation with the baby, chattering on and on for a long time.

Lu Youning smiled and watched the interaction between Ruan Fuxi and the baby gently, thinking that Ruan Fuxi would be a good father.

Not long after, Lu Youning felt sleepy.

Ruan Fuxi patted her back gently and coaxed her to sleep until she heard long breathing sounds.

It was not until the middle and late stages of pregnancy that Lu Youning was able to eat again and her weight gradually returned.

Ms. Liao is responsible for all the clothes, strollers and other supplies needed for the baby.

Of course, the hospital where Lu Youning gave birth and the confinement center have also been booked.

Friends such as Lu Yixiao and Pan Lanfei also sent baby clothes.

Every day, Ruan Fuxi took Lu Youning for a walk to prepare for the birth. Following the doctor's advice, the two discussed and decided a natural birth was the right approach.

At 37 weeks of pregnancy, considering that the twins could go into labor at any time, Lu Youning was admitted to the hospital's VIP ward.

Lu's father and mother also hurried over from L City.

Sure enough, on the second night after being admitted to the hospital, Lu Youning had just finished dinner and went to the bathroom and found that she had spotting.

She took a deep breath, walked out slowly, and shouted, "Xixi, Mom, I'm bleeding."

Ms. Liao quickly pressed the call bell and called her in-laws.

Ruan Fuxi hurriedly helped her to the bedside and asked anxiously, "Ningning, how are you? Are you in pain now?"

Lu Youning shook her head. "It doesn't hurt now."

The doctor came over soon and asked Lu Youning to lie on the bed for an internal examination.

"The cervix hasn't opened yet, so the labor process for the first child is generally slower. Family members can help the mother sit on a birthing ball, which can help her relax and promote faster cervical dilation."

As the doctor spoke, he carefully instructed Ruan Fuxi on how to assist Lu Youning in using the birthing ball.

As soon as Lu Youning sat on the ball, she felt a wave of pain and cried out, "Don't move, it hurts."

It took nearly a minute for Lu Youning to recover, and with the help of Ruan Fuxi, she began to move on the birthing ball.

When Lu's father and mother looked at their daughter, they felt so distressed that they wished they could suffer for her.

Time passed minute by minute, until three o'clock in the morning, when the cervix was only two fingers dilated.

At this time, Lu Youning's hair was wet with sweat and his face was pale.

After enduring for another two hours, the cervix finally opened to three fingers.

The doctor immediately gave her an epidural, and Lu Youning felt alive again.

Ms. Liao immediately brought over a bowl of wontons and said distressedly, "Ningning, eat something first. You'll need strength to give birth to the baby later."

Ruan Fuxi took the bowl, scooped up a spoonful of wontons, blew on it, and handed it to Lu Youning's mouth. He said in a hoarse voice, "Baby, eat something to replenish your energy."

Lu Youning opened her mouth slightly, ate the spoonful of wontons, and a weak smile appeared on her face.

After eating the wontons, Lu Youning was pushed into the delivery room.

Ruan Fuxi, as an accompanying family member, also went in. With Ruan Fuxi's comfort, Lu Youning fell asleep for a while.

Around eight o'clock in the morning, Lu Youning was awakened by a sharp pain, and her fingers unconsciously grasped Ruan Fuxi's arm tightly.

"It hurts, it hurts..."

"Honey, take a deep breath, I'm here!"

Ruan Fuxi comforted Lu Youning while hurriedly ringing the bell.

The doctor and midwife rushed over to check, "The cervix is ​​fully dilated, and you can prepare for delivery."

"take it easy."

"When the contraction comes, if I tell you to hold your breath, you hold your breath. If I tell you to push, you push. Follow my rhythm..."

As a strong contraction came, Lu Youning couldn't help but let out a groan.

"Okay, take a deep breath, hold your breath..."

Half an hour later…

"I've seen the end. Great! Now stop pushing and breathe out instead."

"Okay, the first baby is out, and it's a boy."

Lu Youning felt something slipping out of her stomach. She just breathed a sigh of relief, and then another contraction came.

five minutes later.

"The second baby is out, and it's also a boy."

After giving birth, although Lu Youning felt a little weak, she was still conscious.

The two babies were crying loudly, each one louder than the other.

The midwife came over with the babies in her arms and said with a smile, "The older brother weighs 15 pounds and 6 ounces, and the younger brother weighs 15 pounds and 9 ounces. They're both plump and fair, with long slits around their eyes. They inherited their mother's big eyes."

After the two babies put their faces close to their mother, they became quiet.

Lu Youning looked at the two cute little babies, her heart filled with joy. After seeing them, the pain of childbirth was all worth it.

"Hubby, come and look at our baby."

Ruan Fuxi's eyes were slightly red, and he leaned over and kissed her forehead, "Thank you, honey, for your hard work!"

"Have you thought of a name?"

"Well, the older brother's name is Ruan Yunshao, and the younger brother's name is Ruan Mingze."

"Yun Shao means being open-minded, cheerful and honest; Ming Ze means being grateful and determined in one's pursuit."

Lu Youning smiled and nodded, "It sounds nice. Do the babies like it?" As she spoke, she stretched out her fingers and gently tapped the two babies' faces.

The two little guys turned their heads to look for their mother's fingers, their little mouths moving, which was very cute.

Lu Youning and Ruan Fuxi looked at each other, love flowing in their eyes. From now on, there will be two more treasures in this world who need their protection.

(This is the end of Lu Youning & Ruan Fuxi's story. Thank you for your company along the way.)
