Chapter 246 Color Doppler Ultrasound Pregnancy Examination 2
On the screen, three tiny figures are huddled together, their limbs vaguely visible.
Gu Jinxing's heart skipped a beat as he looked at the three tiny clumps.
Shen Wancheng, who was lying down, turned her head and raised her head, wanting to take a look as well.
The doctor immediately turned the monitor slightly so that Shen Wancheng could see it.
Shen Wancheng was also filled with excitement as she looked at the three small figures.
Although she already knew that the three little ones were of different genders, she was still very curious about how they would be paired up.
Shen Wancheng asked the doctor, "Doctor, can you tell if the baby is a boy or a girl?"
Unlike the mainland, Hong Kong Island has never been shy about informing pregnant women about the sex of their unborn child. In a few years, when DNA testing technology matures, it will be possible to use DNA technology to detect the sex of the fetus in advance.
The doctor smiled; he was used to the fact that the baby's family was always curious about the baby's gender.
However, Mrs. Gu is pregnant with her third child, so it might not be possible to see clearly.
The doctor didn't dare to make a guarantee, only saying, "I might not be able to see it clearly, but I'll try."
He adjusted the angle of the probe, but with three fetuses crammed into the small space, the image was blurry.
After several attempts, the doctor shook his head. "Sorry, I can't see clearly. The children are blocking each other's view."
Shen Wancheng felt a little regretful, but not disappointed, since she already knew that both men and women were involved.
Shen Wancheng thought that was all and prepared to get up.
The doctor said, "Mrs. Gu, one baby's face is turned away from the camera and is blocked. Another baby's face can only be seen halfway. We cannot take pictures of their facial features. We need to take pictures to check whether their facial features are developing properly before we can complete the examination."
Shen Wancheng was taken aback. "Then what should we do?"
The doctor glanced at Gu Jinxing, then said to Shen Wancheng, "Excuse me for being so forward."
He then placed his hands on Shen Wancheng's stomach and gently shook it a few times.
It's like holding a watermelon and shaking it.
Shen Wancheng was amused and chuckled.
After shaking the baby a few times, the doctor held the probe up to the belly again and found that the fetus was only moving slightly and still could not be seen.
The doctor had no choice but to tell Gu Jinxing, "Mr. Gu, you need to help Mrs. Gu get out of bed and walk around, preferably by climbing the stairs for ten minutes."
Huh? That's a strange request.
Shen Wancheng and Gu Jinxing exchanged glances, but since the doctor had made the request, they had no choice but to comply.
Gu Jinxing helped Shen Wancheng to the hospital stairwell to walk up and down the stairs.
Shen Wancheng couldn't help but exclaim, "Climbing stairs is such an interesting method!"
"This is the first time I've heard of this either."
"You've never paid attention to what tests women undergo during pregnancy, so of course you haven't heard of them."
"I hadn't paid attention to you before I met you, but during the months you were pregnant, I read a lot of books about pregnancy."
"is it?"
Shen Wancheng was much happier when she learned that Gu Jinxing had specifically read books about pregnancy.
Men cannot carry a pregnancy in place of women, but they should also take the initiative to understand and be considerate of this.
Shen Wancheng didn't say anything, but Gu Jinxing knew to do it this way, which pleased Shen Wancheng.
Sure enough, Gu Jinxing said, "I can't take away the hardships of pregnancy for you, but I should at least try to understand the situation and take good care of you."
Shen Wancheng laughed and said, "You're right. But things like asking pregnant women to climb stairs to get a good ultrasound are definitely tricks learned through practice, so it's normal that they weren't recorded in the book."
Shen Wancheng and Gu Jin walked and stopped, and after about half an hour, they arrived at the ultrasound room again.
The doctor shook his head again.
"It's still not working. I need to keep walking around to get the baby in my belly moving too."
Shen Wancheng was helpless.
Maybe the baby fell asleep because Shen Wancheng's movements made him feel comfortable?
Shen Wancheng imagined it in her mind, but on the surface she did not question the doctor's words. Instead, she obediently got out of bed and climbed the stairs again.
During this time, Gu Jinxing asked Ke La, who had been following them, to buy bottled water.
Shen Wancheng drank a whole bottle.
When she returned to the ultrasound room, the doctor finally smiled and said, "Now all three babies are at the right angle."
The doctor carefully photographed each of their facial features, and also showed them to Gu Jinxing and Shen Wancheng.
"The facial features are already very clear."
The doctor smiled and said, "Yes, this baby's nose looks a lot like Mr. Gu's, and his lips look like Mrs. Gu's."
Upon hearing the doctor's words, Shen Wancheng looked at Gu Jinxing and then at the display screen, but couldn't discern anything.
Moreover, Shen Wancheng frankly admitted that the fetus's face on screen was actually quite ugly...
Perhaps the child hasn't been born yet, and Shen Wancheng's "motherly filter" hasn't been activated.
Shen Wancheng looked at Gu Jinxing and asked him with her eyes: Did you figure it out?
Gu Jinxing not only shook his head, but also said it outright.
"My wife's lips are still more beautiful."
Shen Wancheng: ......
Shen Wancheng glanced at her shyly.
The doctor was suddenly stuffed with dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection), and paused for a moment before speaking.
"Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu are truly a loving couple."
The examination was finally over. Because the fetus was at the wrong angle earlier and because of climbing stairs, Shen Wancheng and the others left the hospital at almost midnight.
Aunt Liu had already prepared lunch.
When Shen Wancheng and the others returned, Aunt Liu quickly brought the food that had been kept warm to the table.
Shen Wancheng saw a vegetarian soup she had never seen before and asked.
"Aunt Liu, what is this?"
Aunt Liu smiled and said, "This is Seven Treasures Soup, made from seven kinds of vegetables. Today is the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, and it's our local custom to eat this, symbolizing health and longevity. I thought this doesn't have any special ingredients and it would be suitable for you, so I cooked it for good luck."
"You're right. I also wish you good health. When you have dinner with Cora later, be sure to let Cora have a bowl too."
"it is good."
After lunch, Shen Wancheng took her usual afternoon nap, while Gu Jinxing went to the company again.
In the afternoon, Shen Wancheng, who rarely had anything to do at home, walked to the He Mansion to keep He Lin company.
Because Xu Pingtao also goes to the company during the day, and Shen Yao is about to participate in a top-tier horse race, she has been reporting to the racecourse on time every day recently.
Only He Lin lived in the He Mansion. Whenever Shen Wancheng had free time, he would go over to talk to He Lin.
He Lin had regained consciousness once more in the past few months, but regardless of whether she was fully conscious or not, she had completely accepted Shen Wancheng and Shen Yao.
Shen Wancheng truly regarded He Lin as her grandmother.
Just look at the two times He Lin spoke up for Shen Wancheng at crucial moments, which made Shen Wancheng look good. That alone is much better than the original owner's real grandmother in the Shen family.
That evening, Shen Wancheng stayed at the He Mansion for dinner. She also called over Liu Ma and asked her to cook Seven Treasures Soup.
Because Liu Ma mentioned at noon that when she was at the He Mansion, she would cook this for Mr. and Mrs. Xu every year on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.
Shen Wancheng thought to herself that she couldn't make an exception this year just because Aunt Liu was going to take care of her.
In addition, Shen Wancheng also remembered Liu Ma's daughter, Wu Shan.
Wu Shan left Shen Wancheng with the impression that she was a very eloquent and sensible person.
Based on Shen Wancheng's current understanding of the He Mansion, she felt it was a waste to keep Wu Shan there. Shen Wancheng wanted to ask Wu Shan if she would be willing to work at her postpartum care center.
