The Princess of the Substitute Bride Strikes Back

"I have already said this before..."

Han Yan'er opened her mouth again, but was interrupted by Fu Yunxi!

"Yan'er, please let the midwife in!"

Fu Yunxi had no time to pay attention to the argument outside the door. The pregnant woman was in a critical stage at the moment. During delivery, she found that the fetus was too large and the head could not come out at all. She observed that if she performed an episiotomy on the pregnant woman, it would probably be extremely difficult. Moreover, she also suffered from gestational diabetes, and the delivery time could not be delayed too long, otherwise it would easily cause hypoglycemia and even other complications.

"Okay, then I'll help you clean your hands first."

After hearing what Fu Yunxi said, Han Yan'er brought the midwife in.

"What is the current situation?"

The midwife hurried to the bedside, looked at the woman who had already fainted from exhaustion, and asked.

"The fetus is too large to be delivered normally."

Fu Yunxi responded while preparing the anesthetic.

"What did you say? The fetus is too big!"

When the midwife saw Fu Yunxi preparing medicine and scalpel, she suddenly became flustered and almost forgot why she came in.

"That's right. The fetus cannot be delivered normally. A small operation is required. I will open an incision on her stomach, take the baby out, and then sew up the wound."

Fu Yunxi did not have the extra time to explain in detail to the midwife. The pregnant woman's body had already reached the indications for a caesarean section. If a natural birth was forced, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Ah? Let me see."

The midwife was shocked after hearing what Fu Yunxi said. She ran to the pregnant woman to check and found that the baby's head was stuck in that position and could not come out at all. The fetus was indeed too large. Logically speaking, the probability of this situation occurring is extremely small, but if it occurs, it will inevitably lead to difficult labor. As for the result of difficult labor, it is self-evident. With the medical level and technology of this era, it would be lucky for either the child or the mother to be saved!

"No! This child cannot be born at all. The pregnant woman is in labor. Don't you want to ask her family whether to save the older one or the younger one?"

Seeing that Fu Yunxi was almost ready, the midwife became anxious. In the past, when encountering such a situation, it would definitely be the family members who decided whose life to save, rather than them acting rashly.

"Yinyin, listen to me. The baby is healthy and plump. But due to his size, it will be difficult to deliver him. But I have a solution. You take a nap and I will perform a small operation to help you take the baby out, okay?"

Fu Yunxi performed acupuncture on the pregnant woman, waking her up and asking for her opinion.

"What surgery?"

At this moment, not only were Yin Yin's cheeks soaked with sweat, but tears were also flowing from the corners of her eyes onto the pillow. This was the child she had been carrying for ten months, the hope of her and her husband, and nothing must happen to him!

"It's a caesarean section. I will make an incision in your stomach, take the baby out, and then sew the incision shut. You won't feel any pain during the whole process. When you wake up, the baby will be born, and your body will slowly recover."

Fu Yunxi tried her best to make the operation sound less scary, as she knew very well that caesarean sections had never been successful in this era.

"Are both me and the baby safe?" Yin Yin asked hesitantly. She knew very well how serious a difficult childbirth was and had heard about saving both the adult and the child before.

If a woman chooses to save the adult during childbirth, the pregnant woman's belly will have to be cut open to take out the baby, and the adult's life will be in danger, and vice versa.

"That's right, you and the baby will be safe. I have encountered a situation like yours before, and I have performed more than one operation on you. In the end, both mother and child were safe. If you are willing, I will give you anesthesia now, and you won't feel any pain." I have had surgery in my previous life, so it should count as having done it!

"Okay, Doctor, I trust you, I'll do it!"

Yin Yin looked at Fu Yunxi, then at the midwife's expression, and realized that she had no choice at the moment. For the sake of her child, she had to muster up her courage.

"Okay, you take a rest first. I'll go outside and tell your family, and I'll perform the surgery as soon as I come back."

"Okay, please doctor!"

After getting Yin Yin's reply, Fu Yunxi and the midwife walked towards the door together.

"Can you really keep them and their child safe?"

Before opening the door, the midwife asked Fu Yunxi again. Somehow, the little girl in front of her had an inexplicable aura that made her believe that she had indeed encountered more than one pregnant woman with difficult labor, and they were all able to give birth successfully in the end.

"I'm 90 percent sure, and I'll do my best."

Mothers with gestational diabetes already face higher risks than ordinary people during childbirth. Now the fetus is too large to be delivered naturally, so she has to have a caesarean section, but she is confident that she can keep both mother and child safe.

"All right!"

The midwife said no more when she saw this. This situation was beyond what she could handle. Usually at this time, she would open the door and ask the family whether to save the adult or the younger one, but now, perhaps there will be a different outcome!

"The fetus is too large and the mother is having a difficult delivery. I need to perform surgery on her as soon as possible and remove the baby to save both of our lives."

After opening the door, Fu Yunxi looked at her mother and husband who were pacing anxiously, and informed them of the news directly.

"What? Difficult labor?"

When the man's mother heard this, her legs instantly went limp and she was only able to avoid falling down thanks to the man's support.

"Doctor, what is the operation like? Can both the mother and the child be saved?"

The man asked, his voice trembling as he tried to hold back his tears.

"The operation is not complicated. It just involves taking the baby out of the pregnant woman's belly. I am 90% confident of this operation. Yinyin has just agreed. Now as long as you agree, we can start the operation at any time."

Fu Yunxi explained the situation inside to the man, and there was not much time for him to hesitate.

"Is there no other way?"

The man still held a glimmer of hope.

"There is no other way. We are lucky to have saved a life. I have never heard of this operation, but Doctor Fu said she has done it before and it is 90% certain. This is the only feasible plan at the moment."

The midwife was no longer silent, and also restrained her arrogance when she first arrived. In fact, she had been in this business for a long time, and had seen too many happy events turned into funerals. Giving birth for a woman is like walking through the gates of hell, and life and death are all in the hands of God.

At this moment, the man's mother leaned on his shoulder and cried uncontrollably!

"Okay, let's do it. Please ask the doctor to help us."

The man finally made up his mind. He understood that the midwife his mother had hired through connections said that Yinyin had difficulty giving birth and it would be difficult for her to survive. Now all hope rested on Fu Yunxi, and Yinyin also agreed. He really didn't need to hesitate any longer.

"Okay, please wait outside and I will let you know as soon as the operation is over."

After obtaining the family's consent, Fu Yunxi turned and entered the ward without hesitation, fighting against death for Yin Yin and the baby in her belly!
