187 Prelude (2)
Gu Qingming was really living a leisurely life.
She didn’t have to work at home or outside.
...There were good food and drinks at home all the time.
Other than going out to see the greenhouse rice and paying attention to their growth, she had almost nothing to do.
Therefore, she went out for a walk in the morning or followed her family to the fields. After breakfast in the morning, she walked around while the weather was not too hot.
When the weather was hot, she would go home to enjoy the air conditioner, read books, and listen to music.
Now, she had completely entered the role of a pregnant woman.
Days of happiness and contentment always passed so quickly.
Unknowingly, Gu Qingming’s fetus was already four months old.
In her previous life, she felt fetal movement when she was four and a half months pregnant, which was 18 weeks old.
Now…
Sitting on the recliner, Gu Qingming touched her slightly protruding stomach and revealed a motherly smile. “Baby, you’re already 16 weeks old today. It’s been four months. When will the fetal movement start?”
Unexpectedly, her eyes suddenly widened in shock and excitement.
Immediately after, she looked excited and asked carefully, “Baby, are you responding to Mommy?”
She placed her hand on her stomach. Then, she felt it very clearly this time.
Her stomach was really moving.
Perhaps because she was at an early stage of pregnancy, this fetal movement was very light. However, Gu Qingming could clearly feel it.
“That’s great!” Gu Qingming’s eyes couldn’t help but turn red, and there were tears of excitement in the corners of her eyes. “That’s great, Baby. I finally feel your existence again. Baby, this time, I will definitely protect you well and not let anything hurt you! Baby, it’s fine if you don’t have a father. Mom will definitely be able to protect you!”
The fetal movement he felt this time was completely different from the fetal movement he felt in his previous life.
In her previous life, she was excited because she thought that she was sharing the joy of the world.
This time, it was the excitement and gratitude of regaining something.
The mistakes of her previous life were reversed and she was able to stop losses in time. However, the things she had encountered in the past would not be erased, such as this child.
No matter who the child’s father was, she would be a good mother first and give the child her love.
Just as Gu Qingming was immersed in her thoughts, Second Sister-in-law realized that her eyes were red. She immediately asked with concern, “Sister, what’s wrong? Why are you crying? Are you feeling unwell?”
Gu Qingming was speechless.
How fragile did she think she was? Why would she cry just because she felt uncomfortable?
Gu Qingming shook her head and said excitedly, “No, it’s… it’s the baby!”
“The baby moved?” Second Sister-in-law did not react at first. When she did, she asked in surprise, “Sister, you mean the baby moved?”
“Yes, fetal movement!” Gu Qingming nodded and said, “This is the first time I’ve felt fetal movement. I’m just a little excited.”
“How many months has it been?” Second Sister-in-law asked, “Well, it should be four months, right?”
Second Sister-in-law put down the work in her hand. After washing her hands, she put her hand over Gu Qingming’s stomach.
Gu Qingming nodded and said, “Yes, it just turned four months old today. 16 weeks.”
“Well, then it’s moving quite early,” she said with a smile. “Haha, he’s not moving now! Baby, can you move a little?” She said the last sentence softly.
However, perhaps it had just moved twice to inform his mother about its existence. After that, it was too lazy to move.
Second Sister-in-law put down her hand and said with a smile, “At first, the fetal movement is relatively weak. After a week or two, it will become more frequent. When I was pregnant with Junxuan, the fetal movement only started at 18 weeks. When I was in the later stages of pregnancy, he was very active. He kicked left and right. Every time he kicked, I wanted to go to the toilet. The fetal movement at night tortured me so much that I kept getting up and couldn’t even sleep well!”
Gu Qingming said with interest, “I see that Little Junxuan is so obedient. Was he so lively and mischievous in your womb?”
Second Sister-in-law smiled and said, “That’s right. At that time, many people said that the baby in this stomach must be a boy because the fetal movement was strong. When fetal movement is frequent and strong, it’s likely to be a boy. Girls are Mommy’s considerate little cotton-padded jacket. They’re usually quiet and can’t bear to see Mommy suffer.”
Gu Qingming thought of her previous life. When her fetus was five to six months old, the fetal movements in her stomach were quite powerful and frequent.
At first, she thought that the baby was oxygen-deprived due to its umbilical cord wrapped around its neck or something. That was what the books and the Internet said. The fetal movements were too frequent. She had to be careful.
She was so frightened that she rushed to the hospital for a checkup. In the end, the doctor told her that the results were normal. The fetal movements were frequent because the fetus was lively and active.
Then, the doctor told her that as long as the fetus moved regularly, there was no need to worry too much. Unless it suddenly moved frequently without any pattern, she had to be alert and go to the hospital for a checkup immediately.
Gu Qingming had experience with pregnancy, but her experience stopped at the middle stage of pregnancy. She had never felt the fetal movement and the fetal development process in the later stages.
After that miscarriage, she never had a child again.
Because Gu Qingming had just gotten pregnant, Second Sister-in-law imparted her experience to Gu Qingming excitedly.
“Aiya, Junxuan was mischievous when he was in the womb, but after he was born, he was even more mischievous. When he was only four years old, he almost tore down the walls of the house when we couldn’t keep an eye on him.”
Second Sister-in-law continued angrily and happily, “Between Junxuan and Jiahao, the two children can flip over everything that can be flipped at home.”
“No matter how high the things were placed, they would carry stools. If one stool was not enough, there would be two small stools. Three small stools would be stacked on one another until the things were brought over. Once, I almost had a heart attack. What if one of them lost his balance and fell down? What should I do?”
“Haha, they’re usually quite obedient,” Gu Qingming said in amusement. “I didn’t expect them to be so naughty.”
“The two of them only look quite obedient in front of you.” Second Sister-in-law said helplessly, “If we can’t keep an eye on them, they’ll cause trouble!”
“Hehe, isn’t there a popular saying on the Internet now?” Gu Qingming smiled and said, ” If children are quiet, they must be causing trouble!”
“That’s right, that’s what happened!” Second Sister-in-law agreed. “When Junxuan was two years old, I went to the toilet and came back. I almost fainted. Not only did he spread milk powder all over the room, but he also sprinkled water on it, turned it into paste, and stuck it to the wall. The white wall of my house can’t be looked at anymore.”
Gu Qingming was speechless.
Did every child go through this?
According to her parents, she used to play with milk powder and rice noodles. She also dirtied the walls everywhere.
Her grandmother even chuckled and said, “It’s indeed hereditary? She acts like her father!”
