She had thought that since the baby didn’t trouble her during pregnancy, the birth wouldn’t be too difficult either.
However, as soon as they arrived at the hospital, her amniotic water broke.
This made Lu Moqing panic imdiately.
Thankfully, the delivery room and obstetrician were already on standby, so there wasn’t any real chaos.
Still, this child seed to be more troubleso than Qiao Yi during childbirth.
After just one and a half centiters of cervical dilation, Qiao Xu already started feeling significant pain.
She could still bear it, but by the ti she reached three centiters, she was sweating from the pain.
And the Island Master, who had stayed by her side in the delivery room the whole ti, was now even more nervous than her.
Although they already had a son, Qiao Yi, this was the first ti Lu Moqing had witnessed his wife giving birth.
Watching Qiao Xu’s furrowing eyebrows and the cold sweat on her forehead, Lu Moqing’s heart tightened with worry.
Although she had received an epidural, she could not feel completely painless.
It seed that Qiao Xu’s pain nerves were quite sensitive. Even after getting the epidural, the pain while dilating was still quite intense.
The more she dilated, the more pain she felt. By the ti it reached seven or eight centiters, the cold sweat had wet her eyes.
Seeing Qiao Xu like this, Lu Moqing regretted it deeply.
He shouldn’t have listened to her and let her give birth naturally.
If it were a cesarean section, she wouldn’t be in so much pain now.
He heard that the pain of childbirth could reach level 12, while a man being kicked in the groin would only feel level 10 pain.
Thinking about that comparison made Lu Moqing terribly distressed.
"Xuxu, don’t push yourself anymore, just let the doctor perform the cesarean section," he suggested.
Qiao Xu, in pain, raised her hand and pushed him firmly on the shoulder, "No... don’t make a bad suggestion, if I get the operation now, I would have endured the earlier pain for nothing."
Lu Moqing: "..."
Seeing his nervous and distressed appearance, Qiao Xu couldn’t help but laugh and cry at the sa ti. She felt so amused that she montarily forgot about the pain.
"Don’t worry, I’ll be fine once I finish dilating."
Both the midwife and the doctor were in the delivery room. In fact, the doctor wasn’t needed at the mont, but Lu Moqing insisted that the doctor stayed with them.
If he wasn’t in the room, the midwife wouldn’t have been so nervous. But every ti she looked up and saw his lancholic face, her anxiety grew.
It made her wish Qiao Xu could reach full cervical dilation in the next second.
"She’s fully dilated."
The midwife finally sighed in relief, and the waves of intense pain subsided as the dilation ended.
"Madam Lu, now you can follow my instructions. When you feel your stomach swelling, start pushing..."
"Yes, just like that..."
"Deep breath..."
"Push hard. The baby’s position is perfect, you just need to push..."
"...""
"Wah!!!"
As the crisp cry sounded, Lu Moqing’s tense nerves were suddenly relaxed, and a smile also appeared on Qiao Xu’s face.
Before Lu Moqing could even look at the baby, he hurried to Qiao Xu’s side, full of concern, "Honey, you’ve worked hard."
Qiao Xu raised her hand and wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, jokingly, "So have you, Island Master."
Lu Moqing was sowhat embarrassed by Qiao Xu’s teasing but didn’t deny it.
Indeed, those hours of dilation had made him very tense, wishing he could go up and deliver the baby himself.
At that mont, the midwife was already holding the cleaned-up baby and walking towards the couple.
