Chapter 117 Prenatal Checkups
Chapter 117 Prenatal Checkups
A few minutes later, the call ended, and Jiang Qin was wide awake.
A few seconds later, staring at the black screen of his phone that had been turned off, he frowned and lost in thought.
Because the person who just called was none other than the on-call nurse in the fertility department of the public hospital where she had gone after get off work a month ago and found out she was indeed pregnant.
The other party called, not to talk about anything else, but to tell her that the hospital's networked system had intelligently screened the patients and found that she seemed to have not yet had a prenatal checkup. They then subtly inquired whether she had gone to a private hospital or had not had time to have a prenatal checkup.
Or perhaps she has other ideas, such as feeling too much financial pressure and not wanting children anymore.
She was then reminded that if she didn't want the baby, since she was still in the early stages of pregnancy, she should come to the hospital for a check-up and schedule an abortion as soon as possible. Otherwise, if she delayed, she would only suffer more as the baby grew bigger.
After learning that she wanted a child, I quickly explained to her the importance of prenatal checkups for pregnant women and fetuses, and told her many negative medical cases that occurred due to not having prenatal checkups, telling her that if she really wanted a child, she had to have prenatal checkups.
I repeatedly advised her that if she hadn't had her prenatal checkup yet, it would be best to go to a public hospital. If she really didn't want to go to a public hospital, she should choose a reliable large institution if she went to a private one.
During the few minutes of the phone call, the other party did most of the talking, and was quite earnest and patient in their advice.
Therefore, after the call ended, Jiang Qin still had very mixed feelings.
However, the complicated part wasn't anything else, because she herself had always kept the prenatal check-up in mind.
However, although she remembered, several things had happened in recent days, leaving her no time to carry them out.
However, this phone call was quite a coincidence—just recently, she had been thinking about prenatal checkups.
At that time, she planned that after completing her visa application, she would first need to arrange her first prenatal checkup.
Unexpectedly, despite her own thoughts, someone else on the other side called to remind her.
Since the phone call ended, Jiang Qin felt a warmth in her heart because the other person's words genuinely showed concern for pregnant women. However, on the other hand, she also felt a headache coming on because of the other person's reminder.
Yes, prenatal checkups are very important.
But she faces not only the challenge of prenatal checkups, but also the question of how to avoid being detected during these checkups.
After all, as the medical staff just said, hospitals are now all connected to the network. If a clue is discovered, and someone with power comes along, wouldn't it be easy to find out the truth?
She actually prefers public hospitals for prenatal checkups because she feels more at ease, but if she wants to avoid risks, public hospitals are obviously not an option, but private hospitals are a better choice.
To date, in her memory, there is no private hospital in Kyoto that is more professional or larger than Ruikang.
But Ruikang, Lu Xiuyuan's son, and the two brothers were just taking a walk and chatting together yesterday. Moreover, as far as she knew, Lu Xiuyuan was the closest to Huo Sili among Huo Sili's brothers.
In this situation, it was clear that she absolutely could not go. After all, if she went, what difference would it make from handing over her head to someone else?
After getting up and tidying up, Jiang Qin felt her head throb even more as she continued packing and thinking about this matter.
Besides choosing which hospital to go to, she had also done her homework for this prenatal checkup—
You must go on an empty stomach, and it is best to go in the morning.
Recently, her health has been poor, and she has clearly felt that her appetite has increased and she is not as resistant to hunger as she was before she was pregnant.
If she doesn't eat during pregnancy, she feels that she is quite prone to hypoglycemia.
So, just to be on the safe side, it's best if someone accompanies her when she goes for her prenatal checkup.
Otherwise, fainting in an emergency would be far too dangerous, no different from playing with one's own and one's child's lives.
But beside her...
The housekeeper hadn't arrived yet, so Jiang Qin packed her things, cleaned up the house herself, and called a bodyguard in the group chat to take the large cardboard boxes she had packed down to the warehouse.
After thinking about it carefully, I still sent a message to Su Lejia.
He didn't explain what he wanted to do, only that he wanted to video chat with her if he was free at noon.
It was still a weekday during working hours, so Jiang Qin naturally didn't want to disturb her best friend's work. Therefore, she only sent a short message, thinking that her best friend would probably see it and reply after getting off work at noon, and she was prepared to wait.
To everyone's surprise, Su Lejia was online. As soon as the message was sent, Su Lejia replied with a voice message instantly.
"Honey, what's up? Do you want to video call? I'm free right now, I'm off today, I'm at home."
Jiang Qin really didn't know that Su Lejia was off today.
Jiang Qin didn't hesitate to send a video call after Su Lejia said that.
On the other end, Su Lejia, who was in her apartment, was a little nervous when she saw the video call from Jiang Qin.
However, she felt relieved after the call connected because her best friend seemed to be in good spirits.
Her cheeks were slightly flushed, which softened her heart, and at the same time, she inwardly condemned that bastard, Horstley.
How dare he betray such a beautiful and wonderful best friend like her! That scumbag! She wishes him a lonely old age!
A few minutes later, Su Lejia smiled and gave Jiang Qin an OK sign on the other end of the screen.
"No problem at all! Oh dear, I was worried something had happened to you. But honey, have you forgotten? I'm actually the boss of our little company, so even if I'm busy, I can always find the time. Besides..."
Su Lejia was clearly exaggerating, saying smugly and proudly, "Besides, I'll be with you! And with my future goddaughter! Or, godson, right? Auntie will definitely have time!"
Jiang Qin felt warmed inside, and a smile involuntarily appeared on her lips.
Looking at Su Lejia on the screen, Jiang Qin said sincerely, "Thank you, Lele."
Su Lejia couldn't stand her best friend thanking her so earnestly; it made her want to cry.
Su Lejia waved her hand and pouted, "Alright, alright, no need to thank me. If you keep being so polite, I'll get upset!"
Jiang Qin's heart, which had been broken for nearly a year, seemed to be mended and repaired at this moment.
Hormonal changes during pregnancy can cause mood swings. Jiang Qin initially felt fine, but her body showed it quite clearly.
As soon as Su Lejia said those words, her eyes immediately reddened, and she couldn't hold back her tears. She quickly turned her head to wipe them away, then turned back and smiled at Su Lejia on the screen: "Okay, I won't say anything more."
……
Both of my best friends are from J (presumably a slang term for women), they are goal-oriented and have strong execution skills.
Considering the hospital system and to avoid the possibility of being implicated if discovered, the two best friends decided to cut all ties with the public hospitals without further consideration.
After lunch, Su Lejia sent a list of several private hospitals she thought she could consider visiting.
Jiang Qin also compiled a table herself, and after comparing it, she finally confirmed that it was a private school owned by the Nan family, a wealthy family in Haicheng.
Because there is a hierarchy of contempt among wealthy families, although everyone is from a wealthy family, the circles in Jinghai are actually quite separate. Therefore, this family's network of relationships can be said to have no connection with the Huo family.
And this is clearly a good fit for Jiang Qin.
Putting all that aside, this hospital brand has a pretty good reputation in several major cities in China, especially regarding maternity care.
After carefully reviewing all the information, Jiang Qin made an appointment.
Saturday morning at 9:00 AM, which is tomorrow morning at 9:00 AM.
“Okay, then I’ll pick you up at eight o’clock tomorrow morning,” Su Lejia said, adding, “Remember to prepare some of your favorite breakfasts, because you’ll need to eat something after the fasting program ends.”
"Okay," Jiang Qin replied.
After chatting for a while longer, the matter was finally put to a temporary end.
Perhaps because this was the first time in Jiang Qin's life that she had to go for a prenatal checkup, she tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep.
Fortunately, I woke up immediately when I heard the alarm the next morning and didn't have trouble getting out of bed.
After washing up and getting ready, Jiang Qin went downstairs. Because of the arrangements made in advance the night before, Aunt Zhao, the housekeeper at the villa, had already prepared and packaged the breakfast.
As Jiang Qin stepped out of the elevator, Aunt Zhao immediately smiled and handed her two bags with both hands.
"Second Young Madam, please take your time. I'll make breakfast for you this time. If there's anything you don't like, please let me know."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work." The other party was polite, and Jiang Qin naturally returned the courtesy.
Just as we were about to leave, Aunt Zhao said again, "Have fun!"
Jiang Qin paused for a moment, but then smiled naturally and said, "Okay."
