Su Qianxun drank two bottles of water, and she only re-entered the ultrasound room when she felt that her lower abdomen was already very bloated, and she had an urge to go to the bathroom.
She followed the doctor’s instructions and took off her shoes before lying down on the small bed. She pulled her top up to reveal her fair lower abdomen. The doctor glanced at it and was somewhat surprised to see such a beautiful, small waist.
Su Qianxun was really, really nervous. She prayed that her baby would be fine. The doctor squeezed some gel-like stuff onto her lower abdomen, and moved the detector back and forth on her lower abdomen.
“Are you here for an abortion?” The doctor asked because she appeared young.
Su Qianxun immediately shook her head. “No, I’m here to check if I’m pregnant. Doctor, how’s my baby?”
The doctor moved the detector in his hand downwards but he was no longer answering her.
Su Qianxun’s bad hunch became stronger and stronger. She cautiously asked again, “Doctor, is my baby alright?”
“Wipe your lower abdomen clean first. Then, bring your results slip and go to your attending doctor.”
The other party was unwilling to answer her question, and Su Qianxun’s apprehensiveness kept growing. The doctor handed an ultrasound result slip to her. Su Qianxun thanked the doctor and left.
Su Qianxun anxiously returned to the doctor’s office as she wanted to know the results, but she also did not dare to walk too fast as she was worried that her baby would be affected. Right now, she was really filled with self-blame and regret. She regretted not knowing that she was pregnant for such a long period of time.
After returning to the doctor’s office, she handed over the ultrasound results slip to the doctor. The rims of her eyes were red.
The doctor carefully scrutinized the results slip and shook her head helplessly. She was thinking about how another pair of young parents had harmed their baby due to their ignorance.
“Doctor, what happened to my baby? Is he sick? Do I need to receive treatment?” Su Qianxun was holding on to the last thread of hope as she looked at the doctor before her. Tears were already welling up in her eyes.
“The fetus has already… lost all signs of life. He has already stopped growing. You have to prepare for an abortion.”
The doctor’s ice-cold and merciless words were the final nail in the coffin for Su Qianxun. Her eyes could no longer bear the weight of her tears, and tears streamed down her cheeks. She could not believe this outcome. “No, my baby must be alright. Doctor, please help me take a look again… Isn’t he just sick? Or being naughty… or… can you please save him?”
“Enough! Since you are not ready to be a parent, don’t carelessly let yourself get pregnant! The first three months of pregnancy is the period where the fetus is the most unstable. You absolutely cannot have s*x during that time… The baby has no heartbeat, and it is pronounced dead. Just prepare yourself for the surgery, as you would lose your life in a few days if you do this” The doctor warned her in all seriousness. If the dead fetus remained too long in the mother’s body, it would implicate the mother’s body and lead to death.
Su Qianxun had completely stopped breathing, and there was also a ringing noise in her head. She could not believe that her baby would die just like this.
She suddenly snatched the ultrasound results slip from the doctor’s hand, turned around and ran out of the doctor’s office.
The doctor saw how agitated she was and said, “You must have surgery as soon as possible! Otherwise, you’ll lose your life too!”
Su Qianxun held the ultrasound results slip and she ran out of the hospital. She could not believe this outcome. She wanted to save her baby as she believed that her baby had not died. There must still be help out there.
Su Qianxun hailed a cab and went to another hospital. She grabbed the ultrasound results slip and rushed into the gynecology department. She received the same answer that the previous doctor had given her, that her child had already lost its heartbeat and stopped growing. The doctor recommended immediate surgery to remove the fetus, otherwise her life would be in danger.
