My Happy Daily Life After Being Reborn-Chapter 299 - 19: Formal and Informal Names
Chapter 299: Chapter 19: Formal and Informal Names
Upon hearing the three cries from the delivery room one after another, Shen Chi slumped into a chair, feeling completely drained.
Suddenly, he paused mid-thought, turned to Wan Quan, and said, "Did I just hear another cry?"
Wan Quan frowned, "I think I heard it too..." but it was much quieter than the previous three.
As they were hesitating, the door to the delivery room burst open, and a nurse rushed out holding a baby in swaddling clothes.
"What’s happening?" Shen Chi was startled and asked the nurse, but his gaze involuntarily shifted to the frail infant in the swaddle.
"The baby is not well, needs to be put in an incubator." After saying that, the nurse didn’t stop, hurrying away with the child.
Shen Chi felt a thump in his heart. Seeing Luo Yufang and others come out, he rushed forward to ask, "What happened to the child? And how is Wanwan? Is she all right?"
"Wanwan gave birth to four babies, two boys and two girls. The last girl to come out weighs only 970 grams, and her cries are not loud. The doctor said she needs to be in an incubator," Luo Yufang answered, struggling to hide her fatigue.
"Weren’t they supposed to be triplets?" Shen Chi was confused.
"Originally, one of those three fetal sacs must have had two embryos," Zheng Cuicui responded from behind.
"What do we do? Is the child going to be okay? Is Wanwan alright?" Shen Chi was anxious.
"It’s fine. The doctor checked and the child’s organs are well developed; staying in an incubator for a month should be no problem," Han Shouzhen said with a smile. "As for Wanwan, she was so tired that she fell asleep. She’ll be out after the nurses clean her up."
"And the other three children?" Shen Chi first let out a sigh of relief, then became worried again.
"They are all fine. None of the children are very heavy, the heaviest being the third child, just over four pounds. But they are all healthy, and their cries are very loud," Zheng Cuicui said joyously.
"Why is the third child the heaviest?" Shen Chi was puzzled.
"What does it matter? Usually, when there are more than two kids, the smaller ones come out first," Zheng Cuicui said nonchalantly.
"The youngest is a girl, what about the other three?"
"The eldest is a girl, and the second and third are boys," Luo Yufang said with a chuckle.
How could she not be happy? Suddenly having four great-grandchildren, who else could be as fortunate as she?
Just then, the nurse came out holding the other three children, and at the same time, Lin Xiaoguai was wheeled out.
Shen Chi first checked Lin Xiaoguai’s complexion, noticing she just looked a bit exhausted, then turned his attention to the three children.
He had not seen his first son at birth, and it wasn’t until now that he realized just how ugly newborns could be.
Especially since all three children were small and not chubby like other newborns, they looked even worse.
Shen Chi grimaced, held the only girl in his arms, and after a long while, still couldn’t find any resemblance to himself or Wanwan in this little monkey’s face.
"Major General Shen, the child needs to be put in the incubator now," a nurse reminded.
Shen Chi was startled, "Do they also need to be in an incubator?"
"Yes," another nurse explained, "they are premature, so to be cautious, they need to be observed in an incubator for a while."
Shen Chi nodded and handed the child over to them. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
After the nurses left, he turned to Luo Yufang and naively asked, "Could the children get switched by someone?"
Zheng Cuicui couldn’t help but burst out laughing, "Who would steal your children."
"Don’t worry. Sister-in-law has already spoken with the hospital, they will move the incubators to Wanwan’s room," Han Shouzhen said, seeing that Shen Chi was still not at ease.
Such arrangements were usually not permitted in hospitals, but exceptions always exist where privilege is involved.
The group followed Lin Xiaoguai into the hospital room, where four incubators were already arranged side by side.
Shen Chi immediately noticed the smallest child, exclaiming, "How can she be so small?"
The previous three children were already small, but he hadn’t expected his youngest daughter to be even smaller, looking almost like a little kitten.
"It’s okay, she will grow in no time," Han Shouzhen said, adoringly looking at the four children.
Shen Chi frowned, "Have they eaten?"
"They’ve only had some water just after birth. When Wanwan wakes up, she’ll feed them," Luo Yufang replied softly.
Just then, Han Shouxin came in carrying two bags, "I bought breakfast, let’s have something to eat."
While saying this, he placed the bags on a cabinet to the side and walked over to look at the incubators.
"How can this child be so small!?" Seeing the youngest, Han Shouxin couldn’t help but exclaim.
