Chapter 267 Taking care of a baby
Chapter 267 Taking care of a baby
Yang Jiesheng stood aside and looked at the child, then at Wen Qing. Seeing that they were both asleep, he did not disturb them. He asked the doctor about the condition of the mother and baby, then he felt relieved and returned home with Xiao Mingyi. Xiao Mingyi needed to go home to cook dinner for everyone.
Yang Jiesheng went home and rested for more than two hours. He waited for Xiao Mingyi to prepare dinner before going to the hospital together.
Wen Qing has woken up and drank the pig's trotter soup. The baby has also woken up. Old Mrs. Yang gave him some milk and told him to feed him when Wen Qing has milk.
Yang Jiesheng held Wen Qing's hand and said excitedly: "Ah Wen, I have a son now, thank you."
Wen Qing didn't expect the man to be so excited. She didn't know what to say for a moment. After thinking for a while, she said, "Jason, we must train our son well."
"Yeah." Yang Jiesheng nodded vigorously.
He then said, "Ah Wen, I think the baby looks a lot like me. Look at the nose and eyes, they are exactly the same as mine."
Wen Qing looked at the child, his eyes were closed with only a slit, she didn't know how he saw it, but she nodded in agreement, "Yeah, a bit like him."
Yang Jiesheng didn't realize that she was being perfunctory and kept staring at the child.
Wen Qing then told the story of the birth, picked up the baby and handed it to Yang Jiesheng. The family sat together and asked Yang's mother to take a picture of them. Yang's mother also took a picture holding the child. The family was very happy.
Wen Qing looked at everyone with a smile, these were her family.
In the evening, Yang's mother and Xiao Mingyi went home, and Yang Jiesheng stayed to take care of Wen Qing and the child.
After a while, the baby woke up and twisted its body in the bundle. Wen Qing said, "Maybe he peed. Open it and take a look."
Yang Jiesheng untied the diaper and found it was wet. He washed the baby's bottom with the nurse and wrapped it up before handing it to Wen Qing, saying, "Wen, he might be hungry. Feed him."
Wen Qing undressed herself. She already felt her chest was a little swollen. The baby didn't know how to find food yet, so Wen Qing moved closer to him. After a while of sucking, the baby didn't feel the milk and started crying with his mouth pursed.
Wen Qing felt upset and said, "Jason, give him some milk. Don't let the child starve."
Yang Jiesheng shook his head. "I asked the doctor, and he said not to feed him too much milk, otherwise the child won't eat breast milk. I'd better feed him some water first, and you can drink some crucian carp soup."
Wen Qing followed her instructions and drank a bowl of crucian carp soup. She also applied hot compresses and massaged her breasts. This time, the pain was more obvious. She said to Yang Jiesheng, "Jiesheng, give me the baby. I'll feed him again."
Wen Qing opened her clothes and put the baby on her chest. The baby might be very hungry, and he held the milk impatiently and began to suck it hard. His little face turned red because of the effort. He might not have sucked anything out, and was about to open his mouth to cry. Wen Qing changed her position and held him tightly. The baby sucked hard again, and milk came out. Wen Qing felt relieved when she saw him swallowing continuously.
Yang Jiesheng said: "He ate it, he ate it, you see he was eating it happily."
Babies have very small appetites and will fall asleep due to tiredness after eating little.
More than an hour later, Wen Qing fed the baby again, and only then did the two feel relieved.
Yang Jiesheng washed the towel and handed it to Wen Qing, asking her to wipe her body and change her clothes before sitting aside to rest.
That night, neither Wen Qing nor Yang Jiesheng got a good rest. The baby woke up every 1 or 2 hours, either to change his diaper or to feed. The baby didn't cry, but just whined. Only when no one paid attention would he burst into tears.
When they woke up the next day, both new parents had dark circles under their eyes. In the morning, Yang's mother and Xiao Mingyi brought fried eggs and millet porridge to Wen Qing, and also brought buns to Yang Jiesheng.
Everyone brought hot water and bathed the baby under the guidance of the nurse. The baby was not asleep, which was rare. He opened his little eyes and looked at the man who was bathing him. Suddenly, he grinned. Yang Jiesheng looked at his son's smile and shouted, "Awen, Mom, he smiled at me."
Wen Qing looked at the father and son with a smile. She stripped the baby naked and put him into the basin. His two little legs were splashing water happily. Yang Jiesheng quickly washed the little guy and went to consult the doctor about some things to pay attention to when raising a child. He heard that there was a kind of diapers that could be used for children. Just then, Yang's mother and Xiao Mingyi came to the hospital, so he went home to catch up on his sleep and went to the shopping mall to buy diapers, saving everyone from the dilemma of washing diapers.
After staying in the hospital for two nights, on the morning of the third day, the doctor issued a discharge certificate and Yang Jiesheng took the mother and child back home.
After two days of rest, Wen Qing's body had recovered halfway. She didn't want to lie down for a whole month as Yang's mother and Xiao Mingyi had said. Although she couldn't go to class right away, she had no problem doing some housework and taking care of the children at home.
Yang Jiesheng named his son Yang Zheng, and his nickname was Shanshan, hoping that he would grow up to be a man as tall as a mountain and as straight as a pine tree.
"Shanshan, look at me." Wen Qing was teasing the baby with a rattle. She saw his innocent big eyes looking at the bell in her hand with a toothless smile, which was so cute that her heart almost melted.
Yang Jiesheng stayed at home for a week and received a call from the domestic company, saying that something had happened at the branch and asked him to return immediately.
Yang Jiesheng told her the situation and looked at her apologetically. Wen Qing said, "I'm fine here, and my mother is here. You can go back."
Yang Jiesheng hugged her and said guiltily, "Awen, I didn't spend enough time with you when you were pregnant, and now that you've just given birth to the baby, I can't help you either."
Wen Qing said: "It's okay, I'm really fine, don't worry, besides, you are also working hard for our future."
Hearing Qing say this, Yang Jiesheng felt a little better.
Yang's mother also asked him to return home and promised to take good care of the mother and child. She said: "I have given birth to three children, don't I know how to raise them? You can go back without worry."
Wen Qing personally helped him pack his luggage, and Yang Jiesheng left reluctantly.
Wen Qing asked Yang's mother to go home after the full moon. She was worried that the old lady was tired, so she urged her to go back to Gangcheng. She said to Yang's mother, "Mom, you see, I am out of confinement now. There is not much to do here. You can rest assured that Xiao Mingyi will help me."
Seeing that Wen Qing had no problem taking care of the child, Yang's mother went back with peace of mind. She had been helping to take care of the baby for the past month, and was very busy in the mornings and evenings, and she felt a little overwhelmed.
Wen Qing dropped out of school to take care of the child full-time at home. Xiao Mingyi usually helps. It's no problem for two adults to deal with one child even if it's a bit busy.
It was just that sometimes Xiao Mingyi had to take leave for family matters, and she was a little flustered by herself, worried that she could not take care of the child for a while and something would go wrong, so she wondered if she could put the child in the space? Also, the crops in the space were about to be harvested, and she was the one who took care of the child at night, and she couldn't leave him alone outside.
