Medical road ahead

"Zhou Mo, are you here for the prenatal checkup?"

Qiao Tan, who had just finished receiving a patient, saw Zhou Mo walking into his consulting room with her big belly, and quickly got up, put a cushion on the stool, and helped her to sit down carefully.

"Yes, I'll stop by and let you check to see if my current weight is up to standard." Zhou Mo said with a smile.

Qiao Tan pinched his fingers and calculated, "You have six months, right?"

"Yeah." Zhou Mo nodded.

Qiao Tan sized her up and said eloquently: "According to the ancients, six months of pregnancy is also called 'beginning to receive the golden essence to form its tendons', which is the period when the fetus grows flesh. At this time, you can relax without fatigue. Walk around more when you are in a healthy state, see more animals and beasts, and go to the zoo often if possible, which will help the muscles of the fetus to be firm and strong.

At the same time, the visual and taste systems of the fetus have matured at this time, and you can try various foods to cultivate the fetus' all-round taste and avoid partial eclipse in the future.Of course, don't overeat, and let the child develop bad eating habits in the mother's womb.

Judging from your current state, you are not bad, your complexion is much ruddy, and your stomach is getting bigger, but you don't see any obvious fat in other places, just keep it up. "

"Great."

Hearing this, Zhou Mo finally lost her heart. It took a lot of effort for her to control her weight and not continue to gain weight.

Qiao Tan said with a smile: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Pregnancy is really not easy, but being a mother is tough. You have to believe in yourself, and you will definitely let your baby come to this world safely."

"Yeah!" Zhou Mo nodded solemnly.

"correct."

Qiao Tan went on to say: "If you feel unwell, you can try taking Maimendong Decoction. It can relieve the symptoms of vomiting during pregnancy, which is a symptom of insufficient stomach yin. If you accidentally move your fetal gas, you can take Bupleurum Decoction."

"Bupleurum soup? What kind of soup is that?" Zhou Mo was curious.

"It is the name of a traditional Chinese medicine prescription, which comes from the volume of "Prescriptions in History". It has the effects of dispelling wind, relieving the exterior, nourishing fluid and moistening the intestines. One of the prescriptions is specially taken for those who move fetal gas during six months of pregnancy. .”

After speaking, Qiao Tan sat back on his seat, took out a pen and paper and wrote down the prescription, "Bupleurum four liang, Atractylodes macrocephala, peony, and licorice each two liang, Cistanche deserticola one liang, Xiong xiong two liang, Ophiopogon japonicus two Two, five liang of dried rehmannia glutinosa, thirty pieces of jujube, six liang of ginger."

"Wow! Dr. Qiao, you are so amazing, you actually remember Chinese medicine prescriptions so clearly."

Seeing this, Zhou Mo's husband couldn't help admiring him.

Qiao Tan said with a smile: "Actually, in terms of nutritional diet, we also often refer to traditional Chinese medicine diet prescriptions. After all, this is something that our ancestors have passed down for thousands of years."

"Doctor Joe is right."

Zhou Mo nodded in agreement, and then asked: "From the perspective of Chinese medicine, what should I pay attention to in the next few months?"

Qiao Tan stopped writing and said to her: "You will be seven months soon, that is, 'beginning to receive sperm to form its bones', which is the period when the fetal bones grow up. At that time, you can do more. For some movements of swinging limbs and stretching, the living environment should avoid hot and dry environment, but the food should avoid cold sex. You can eat more rice, because 'nourishing bones and strengthening teeth'. Keep your emotions positive and optimistic, and don't get angry or cry etc.; dress warmly. If you feel unwell, you can take scallion soup; if you feel fetal gas, you can take almond soup.

And at the eighth month, it is the period when the skin of the fetus is formed by "beginning to receive the earth essence to form skin leather". Therefore, it is necessary to keep calm and avoid heat in the diet, so as to make the skin of the fetus healthy and healthy. luster.If you feel unwell at this time, you can take Shaoyao Decoction; if you feel fetal gas, you can take Kuizi Decoction.

At the ninth month of pregnancy, 'beginning to receive stone essence to form fur, six internal organs and hundred joints', as the name suggests, means that the functions of various organs of the fetus are mature, especially the rapid growth of hair, hands and feet nails.At this time, you can eat more sweets.Once you feel unwell, you can take Banxia Decoction; if you feel fetal gas, you can take Pig Kidney Decoction.

At the tenth month of pregnancy, the fetus is already 'all five viscera are ready, and all six internal organs are in order'. At this time, it is enough to relax, because everything is ready, and it is only waiting for the time to be born. "

"Wow! There are so many, I still can't remember for a while."

Zhou Mo's husband rubbed his hands in amazement.

Hearing this, Zhou Mo turned his head to look at him, and said with a smile: "I can't remember it? I'm afraid I didn't remember any of it?"

"Where is it? At least I will remember it for the last month. I just want you to relax." Zhou Mo's husband hesitated to defend.

Qiao Tan couldn't help laughing, and said to the two: "Let me write it down for you together. In fact, these are relatively short common senses about raising a fetus. The key essence is revealed in just a few numbers. For example, when you are ten months pregnant, the 'five internal organs All are ready, the six internal organs are all connected', that is to say, the fetus has been fully formed. At this time, the pregnant woman does not need to do other things, just keep expecting and wait for the delivery period.

The fetus grows step by step in the mother's womb. As long as the law of its growth is mastered, it is easy to raise the fetus. "

"The things handed down by the ancestors are practical!" Zhou Mo couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes, yes!" Zhou Mo's husband followed suit.

After writing these pregnancy care precautions, Qiao Tan looked at Zhou Mo and asked, "Have you slept well recently? Didn't you say that the place where you live is a bit noisy, it seems that there is a mahjong parlor downstairs, right?"

"cough!"

Zhou Mo motioned to her husband to call him away, and then said truthfully to Qiao Tan: "We moved because the mahjong parlor downstairs was too noisy, so we moved to another unit building in the community for a while. Of course, my mother-in-law strongly opposed it, and had a big fight with my husband, but this time my husband was very persistent, and my mother-in-law had no choice but to fight with us. This cold war lasted for several months. Even if we met in the community, she turned a blind eye to us."

Qiao Tan frowned and asked: "Then your mother-in-law doesn't care about you, who will take care of you?"

"My mother is here. Seeing my situation, she plans to stay with me until confinement. Presumably by then, my mother-in-law should calm down and help me take care of the child." Zhou Mo said.

"Hey!"

Qiao Tan sighed, "Your mother-in-law is just like a child. There's nothing to be ashamed about. Originally, the family is noisy, so it's not suitable for raising a baby. As a person who has given birth, why doesn't she have this awareness."

"Harmful! Where is the lack of awareness? It's because I can't bear to pay the rent."

Zhou Mo waved his hands and sneered, and continued, "Fortunately, I saved a sum of money before I got married, and I just used it to pay the rent, so I don't need to rely on my parents-in-law for support."

"That's fine."

Qiao Tan nodded, pulled her and said distressedly: "It's not easy for you, you must take good care of yourself. Even if you have a child, don't put yourself behind. Besides taking care of the child, you must also take care of your body."

"I know."

Zhou Mo smiled and nodded, then asked, "How are you and that doctor Qin? When are you getting married?"

"I haven't thought about it that far! No, I have just turned into a full-time job for a year from the internship period. If I get married now, it may affect my future work." Qiao Tan said.

"Ouch! Doctor Qiao, how can work be as important as your own lifelong events? Besides, your marriage will only delay that period of time, how will it affect your work?" Zhou Mo said angrily.

"Ha ha."

Qiao Tan smiled and did not explain. Seeing a new patient waiting outside, he ended the conversation with Zhou Mo and asked the nurse to invite the patient into the consultation room.

Zhou Mo and his wife went to the obstetrics department for reexamination, and wanted to find out the gender of the child from the B-ultrasound doctor.

"Sorry, we have a rule that we cannot disclose the gender of the child to the family."

However, the B-ultrasound doctor declined this request.

"I also want to say that I should buy clothes for the children in advance. Now I don't even know the gender, so I can only choose neutral clothes to buy." Zhou Mo said a little disappointed.

The B-ultrasound doctor asked: "Then do you want it to be a boy or a girl?"

Zhou Mo said with a smile: "I naturally hope to be a little princess, but the child's father prefers boys."

"Actually, men and women are the same. Daughters are more caring, and sons are stricter." Zhou Mo's husband added.

"Well"

The B-ultrasound doctor looked at the two of them, thought for a while, and said, "Prepare some cute little dresses."

"Ok?"

The couple couldn't react in time and looked at her in a daze.

"Okay, next one."

The B-ultrasound doctor did not answer the question, but called the next pregnant woman to come in for an examination.

"It's a daughter!"

After leaving the B-ultrasound room, Zhou Mo belatedly raised his lips to delight.
