"Listen to ." Doctor Peng explained to the family again, "A cesarean section is absolutely not as good as a natural birth for her own future recovery and for the baby. You must trust us doctors; we’ll monitor her situation. If she really can’t take the pain, her contractions are weak, and she can’t give birth naturally, we will promptly take other asures for her. At this stage, it’s best to continue with a natural birth."
"Doctor, why don’t you ask her herself if the pain is unbearable?" The husband of the woman in labor took a deep breath and was sowhat anxious with the doctor.
Seeing his wife in pain, he empathizes deeply; the more he watches, the more it hurts him. As a man, he cannot bear to watch his wife suffer such imnse pain.
Doctor Peng wouldn’t specifically ask the mother if the pain is unbearable. Because almost every mother would answer yes. Referencing the woman in bed five earlier, who ca in claiming the pain was unbearable and insisted on having a cesarean.
Childbirth for a woman about to beco a mother is like a battle, requiring very strong willpower to support herself through this challenge. Because of this, the hospital arranges appropriate space for family mbers to co in and accompany the mother, with the aim of providing support and encouragent to face difficulties and welco life’s toughest challenges.
But sotis things may not go as planned.
So family mbers may be more fragile than the expectant mother herself, unable to support her and breaking down first.
Doctor Peng thought about it and made a suggestion to the mother’s family: "I see you are tired after accompanying her for several hours, why not switch with other family mbers, let her mom co in to accompany her, what do you think?"
"No, no, no, doctor, don’t—" The husband of the woman in labor waved his hand at the doctor, insisting that this asure would not work.
Doctor Peng was surprised, what’s going on, is there so story between the mother and the expectant mother?
The husband of the No. 2 bed pregnant woman nervously pointed to the single-room adjacent No. 1 delivery room.
Doctor Peng walked to the entrance and leaned to listen to what was happening next door.
In the single-room No. 1 delivery room, there was the woman from bed five who had been transferred from a multi-bed delivery room. Since her husband was as young as she was, the family group decided to let her mother, who had childbirth experience, co in to accompany her.
The result turned out like this—
"Why are you shouting it’s painful? What’s so painful about it? When I was giving birth to you, it hurt even more. Bear with it, child, no need to cry out, it doesn’t hurt at all."
Hearing this, one might think this person wasn’t the expectant mother’s biological mother but rather a wicked stepmother or a harsh mother-in-law.
Upon listening carefully, despite the scolding, the tone contained an elent of anxiety and concern that only a biological mother can have for her daughter.
Elders definitely care about the younger generation, nobody dares say otherwise. The mother of bed five couldn’t possibly not care about her biological daughter. It’s just that these elders are nervous inside and can only refer to their past experiences as a ans to comfort juniors that childbirth isn’t a big deal. When the elders say this, they are actually trying to soothe their own anxious feelings, thus not realizing their words are inappropriate.
The expectant mother herself is already in unbearable pain; upon hearing her mother’s words, she might indeed be infuriated. The mother of bed five looks aggrieved and in pain. If not for the previous performance of the woman in bed six inspiring her, she wouldn’t want to give birth.
Undoubtedly, the performance of the woman next door makes the couple in bed two shiver all over.
The husband of the No. 2 bed pregnant woman expressed his concerns candidly to the doctor: "I don’t want to argue with my mother-in-law and my mom. My wife is in such pain, I feel distressed for her. They do care about her, but they are elders, I can’t control how they speak to my wife."
