Loving You Too Much - Chapter 422

Zhang Yu Han was at a loss when Doctor Qiao told him that he has to be the one who caught the baby as he came out. He was not allowed to enter the delivery room when his wife gave birth to Zhang Li Xue and therefore, he did not have any experience or know what to expect.

However, Doctor Qiao had reminded him that at this time, his wife has no one but him. The mother and child were depending on him.

Zhang Yu Han took a deep breath and pull himself together. His wife was in pain to deliver their second child and he could not afford to be faint heart at this moment.

He went over to his wife’s legs and looked at the baby’s head. At this moment, he was able to see more of it. Doctor Qiao mentioned that the baby was in a good position, therefore, he shouldn’t be having too many difficulties.

He did not now whether Doctor Qiao was merely saying those just to ease his anxiety, but her comforting words had successfully helped him to relax. Now, he only needed to be careful as he caught the baby and see if the umbilical cord was wrapped around the baby’s neck.

“Qin Yao, breathe,” Zhang Yu Han coaxed. “You can do this. I can see the baby’s head. He’s going to come out soon.”

Li Qin Yao pushed the baby out and cried at the pain. Hearing that the baby was going to come out soon, she gritted her teeth, forced herself to bear with the pain, and breathe again. Then, she tightened her grip on the sofa and pushed again.

From the loudspeaker, Doctor Qiao’s voice could be heard, giving Zhang Yu Han instruction as well as to give the couple more ȧssuring words.

Zhang Yu Han gasped when he saw the scene in front of him. He took a deep breath and announced. “The baby’s head is out!”

Li Qin Yao heaved with relief. She knew from experience that the shoulder will come out next. Then, the delivery process should come easily after that.

“Mrs. Zhang, Mister Zhang, you have done a very good job so far,” Doctor Qiao spoke. “Mister Zhang, now that the baby’s head is out, you need to be ready to catch the baby. Don’t pull. Just guide the baby out carefully.”

Zhang Yu Han wiped the sweat on his face with his sleeve and get into the position. He listened carefully to the doctor’s instructions and watched the baby’s head.

After a few more pushes, the shoulder was finally out, and soon with a final push, the baby finally came out.

“The baby came out!” Zhang Yu Han announced and heaved in relief. He looked down and continued, “It’s a boy.”

Doctor Qiao tightened her grip on the phone and heaved a sigh with relief.

Doctor Qiao gave him a few more instructions and a few seconds later, the baby’s cry was heard. She took another deep breath and continued to instruct the father on what to do next.

Zhang Yu Han wrapped the baby in a clean towel and took him to his wife. He looked at his tired wife and kissed her forehead. “Qin Yao, thank you. You’ve done a great job.” His voice was a little hoarse.

Li Qin Yao let out a sob as she looked at the baby. She took the baby to her ċhėst and tried to keep him warm.

“Congratulation, Mister Zhang, Mrs. Zhang. Both of you have done a great job delivering the child. Doctor Qi and I are on our way to your place. We are expected to arrive in another five minutes,” Doctor Qiao announced. “Mister Zhang, how is your wife’s condition at the moment?”

“Doctor Qiao, I’m fine.” Li Qin Yao answered.

Doctor Qiao let out another deep breath. Then she recommended the mother to initiate brėȧstfeeding and waited until the placenta to come out.

“Sorry. You have to go through this with me,” Li Qin Yao spoke as the baby started to drink her milk.

Zhang Yu Han frowned. “Don’t say things like that. I love you. I will go through it all again if I have to. Let’s not talk about that. How are you feeling? Painful?”

Li Qin Yao shook her head. She was still in pain, however, as she looked at the baby in her arms, the pain suddenly subsided.

Looking at the look on his wife’s face, Zhang Yu Han was distressed. He looked at the baby in his wife’s arms and narrowed his eyes. It seemed that his son had been making things difficult for his wife from the very beginning.

However, there was nothing he can do about it. In the end, Zhang Yu Han could only vow silently to punish him if he continued to make things hard for his mother when he grew up.

“Don’t look at him that way,” Li Qin Yao was quick to notice the strange look on his husband’s face. “He’s your son.”

Zhang Yu Han let out a sigh. He wrapped his arms around her body and kissed her again. “Qin Yao, let’s not have another child alright?”

…

When both Qi Zheng and Doctor Qiao arrived at their home, they were not surprised by the messy scene in the living room.

Doctor Qiao quickly went forward to check on both mother and child. With Qi Zheng’s help, then helped both the mother and child with the proper procedure. Then, she accompanied them until the paramedics arrived. Although the baby is safely born, there are still procedures and check-up that they need to do in the hospital.

Qi Zheng walked over to his friend and patted at his shoulder. He looked at his friend’s unkempt appearance and smiled. “Are you alright?”

Zhang Yu Han glanced at his wife who was with Doctor Qiao and nodded.

“How does it feel?” Qi Zheng continued to ask. “You wouldn’t get traumatic after this, right? I heard that some fathers were traumatized after they accompanied their wives in the labor room. And you… You were a part of that process.”

“I’m fine. Just that, I did not think that giving birth would be so difficult and painful.” Zhang Yu Han shuddered as he recalled his experience just now. “I am never going to have another child.”

“That’s fine. You already have a pair of daughter and son.” He gave another pat on his friend’s shoulder and said, “Hey, you did a great job not panicking and ȧssisting your wife until the child was born.”

Zhang Yu Han chuckled. At this time, his phone on the table started to ring. Zhang Yu Han slid his finger on the screen without looking at the caller ID and pressed it to his ear.

“Brother. Where are you?” Zhang Yu Ying’s voice came from the other line. “Grandfather’s birthday banquet is going to start soon.”
