Chapter 588 More important than children
Even though the weather was warm, Li Man's hands were still cold, and the doctor felt her pulse.
Li Man waited nervously for a few seconds before speaking, "How is it?"
The doctor said, "The pulse is floating, weak, and slippery."
It didn't sound like a good word, so Li Man hurriedly asked, "What does this mean?"
"The pulse is floating but weak, empty and slippery. It is a cold syndrome, which means that the cold air in your body is relatively heavy." After the doctor explained, he asked, "Are your menstrual periods relatively disordered and irregular?"
"Well, it's always postponed. This time it's been more than half a month. Because it's been irregular, I didn't think about getting pregnant."
"You have a cold constitution, and it's quite serious. Menstruation is often delayed, ranging from more than ten days to several months, which can even affect ovulation and lead to infertility. In addition, the cold in the uterus causes the temperature to be low, which is not suitable for the fetus. growth, it is easy to miscarry even if you become pregnant."
Li Man's heart sank to the bottom after listening to the doctor's words.
Seeing her disappointed look, the doctor added, "You are still young and your body can still be recuperated. Soak your feet more, do more exercise, eat more foods rich in protein and iron, and develop a good work and rest routine. If necessary, you can Drink some Chinese medicine to adjust."
Li Man said: "Would it be best for me to drink some Chinese medicine to treat it?"
The doctor nodded, "Well, the main thing is to combine it with more foot bathing, more exercise, and a diet rich in protein and iron, and the effect will be better."
"Okay, please help me prepare the medicine. How long does it usually take for the treatment to be effective?"
"It will take at least two to three months. I will give you half a month's supply first, and then come to the hospital to get the medicine after you finish it?"
"can."
The nurse brought the medicine for Li Man. Li Man took the medicine and thanked the doctor before getting up and leaving.
Shen Muting saw the Chinese medicine in her hand and asked, "What is this?"
"The doctor said that I was vomiting due to a bad gastrointestinal condition and that I was not pregnant." Li Man said, looking at Shen Muting unblinkingly.
Shen Muting's expression did not change at all, and there was no trace of disappointment in his eyes. Li Man couldn't help but said, "Don't you feel disappointed?"
"I have checked the information and watched "Birth Gate". I know how difficult it is for a woman to give birth to a child. It is like walking through a ghost gate. I want a child of love with you, but when it comes to children, I am more concerned about it. I hope we can let nature take its course. Compared with your children, you are far more important than your children. If you are afraid, we can also not have children. No matter what, as long as you are well and happy, I respect your choice."
Li Man felt warm in her heart and had mixed emotions.
Shen Muting turned to ask about the thing in her hand, "What is this?"
"Chinese medicine, the doctor said that I have a cold constitution and need to be well-conditioned. A cold uterus makes it difficult to get pregnant and is not suitable for the growth of the fetus. Even if I get pregnant, it is easy to miscarry." Li Man did not hide anything from Shen Muting and told him the truth.
Shen Muting felt extremely distressed, "You don't have to force yourself, don't wrong yourself because of me."
Li Man's eyebrows curved and she smiled at him, "I take these medicines not just for you, but also to take care of my body."
Shen Muting smiled and raised his hand to rub the top of her hair, "Well, that's good. Let the pregnancy take its course. It will be good to have children. If not, then we can live a life of two people. Let's go. Well, grandma is still waiting for us to go back."
Li Man felt warm in his heart and nodded, "Yes."
Back at Xishan Villa, Liu Ying was still awake and waiting for them.
Li Man and Shen Muting walked into the villa, changed their shoes and came to the living room.
Shen Muting said warmly: "Grandma, haven't you rested yet?"
When Liu Ying saw Li Man's lack of interest, she knew she was not pregnant and said, "I lost track of time while watching TV. What did the doctor say?"
"I'm not pregnant. The doctor has prescribed some Chinese medicine to support the body. Don't worry, it's nothing serious."
Liu Ying breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good. Children also see fate, let nature take its course, and don't rush."
"Well, we are not in a hurry. Manman is still young. It is the best age to start a career. It is not too late to have a child in two or three to five years. It is just enough to have more of a world for two. Once you have a child, it will not be as easy as now. And freedom." Shen Muting said.
"Okay, you two can discuss it." After saying that, Liu Ying changed her subject and said, "It's getting late. I'll go back to my room to rest. You guys should also rest early."
Li Man nodded, "Okay."
the next day.
Li Man received a call from Liu Ying at the company.
Liu Ying has returned to her home in Washington.
"Is it convenient for you to answer the phone? I can't understand a sentence or two on the phone. How about you come to grandma after get off work and have dinner at grandma's place before going back."
"Okay, then I'll go there after get off work."
After hanging up the phone, Li Man told Shen Muting that he would not go back to Xishan Villa for dinner in the evening, and then got busy with work.
After get off work, she drove to Washington Homes.
Liu Ying has already prepared the meal.
After eating, Liu Ying was not in a hurry to wash the dishes. She looked at Li Man without blinking, "Manman, tell the truth to grandma. Is there anything wrong with you going to the hospital for a checkup yesterday?"
"I've told you everything, but I'm fine. It's just that my stomach is not feeling well. I'll just take some medicine to heal it up."
Liu Ying looked questioning and didn't believe her words, "You even want to hide it from grandma? Tell grandma something. Only when grandma knows, will she have peace of mind. Otherwise, she won't be able to think wildly and worry about you even more. Yesterday, in front of Mu Ting, , I didn’t dare to ask more questions, but grandma is not stupid, I can see that you have something on your mind.”
"It's no big deal," Li Man smiled, "Really, don't think too much."
"Then just tell me. Tell me and I will stop thinking nonsense." Liu Ying insisted on breaking the casserole and asking the truth.
"I just went for a check-up yesterday and I'm not pregnant. Although I didn't want to have a baby in a hurry, I thought I was pregnant, so I was quite disappointed when I found out I wasn't pregnant. Then the doctor said I have a cold constitution, probably because of the previous winter. Because she fell into the sea, she needs to be recuperated, otherwise it will be difficult to get pregnant, and even if she becomes pregnant, the risk of miscarriage will be high." Li Man told Liu Ying the truth.
Liu Ying immediately asked: "Does Shen Muting know?"
Li Man nodded, "Well, I told him that we are going to Yaoying, so we can't hide this from him. Moreover, I think we should let him know that if I can't get pregnant and have children in the future, I can't delay it." He, I will respect his choice."
"It won't get to that point. Now that medical technology is so advanced, there is no other way. I heard a person in the community say a few days ago that the test tube done by her daughter-in-law was painful and expensive." Liu Ying said.
"Well, I know, I'm just talking about the worst outcome. Don't worry, I will follow the doctor's instructions and take Chinese medicine to regulate my body. By the way," Li Man changed the subject, "How have you been feeling lately? Dr. Meng said to contact her for follow-up consultation after the medicine is finished."
