Chapter 655: Prenatal Checkup
“Okay,” Xiaomeng was already looking forward to it. It was one of the most important moments for a woman. Although they had discussed marriage before, they hadn’t taken wedding photos yet.
Of course, Xiaomeng had already consulted with the doctor during her prenatal checkup. Now, at over three months pregnant, as long as she didn’t overexert herself, everything should be fine with some precautions.
Xiaomeng’s mind was already racing with thoughts of what styles would suit her best, and the anticipation made her genuinely happy.
Since Xiaomeng got pregnant, He Ming had transitioned to a vegetarian diet and dedicated himself entirely to taking care of them. He had no other thoughts or desires.
Sometimes, seeing Xiaomeng’s shy demeanor, he couldn’t resist stealing a glance.
He Ming was efficient in his actions. The next day, he had already contacted “Eternal Love,” a renowned wedding photography studio in Bin City.
The name alone was quite captivating, attracting many couples. Although the price was high, it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and they didn’t want any regrets.
He Ming thought the same way. He wanted to create unforgettable and special memories for Xiaomeng.
They had already discussed taking photos in various styles, including wedding gowns, evening gowns, and traditional Chinese dresses.
Once He Ming had arranged the photography team and set up the scenes, he brought Xiaomeng in for hair and makeup before the shoot.
This way, Xiaomeng didn’t feel too tired.
Though changing outfits was cumbersome, Xiaomeng was cooperative because she knew this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and needed to be treated with care.
Her waist was still slim since her belly hadn’t shown yet, and she looked stunning in every style they tried.
Because they opted for multiple styles, the photoshoot took a whole day. Xiaomeng felt it went well, and He Ming breathed a sigh of relief.
Back home, He Ming massaged her and attended to her needs, making Xiaomeng feel like a queen.
Days passed by, and it was time for Ye Xiaomeng’s scheduled prenatal checkup.
In recent weeks, Xiaomeng’s life had been relatively smooth. However, on the day of her prenatal checkup, there was a thrilling incident.
The day before the checkup, He Ming worked tirelessly, putting in an extra two hours to wrap up his tasks for the following day.
Early the next morning, after a hearty breakfast together, he drove Xiaomeng to the hospital.
The series of prenatal examinations took nearly two hours.
“The baby is healthy, with a normal heartbeat and development. Everything looks good so far…” the obstetrician informed He Ming and Xiaomeng of the examination results. Then added, “Now that it’s been three months, things are relatively stable. You can engage in intimacy appropriately, but remember to be cautious.”
The doctor, being experienced, preemptively gave them advice knowing the situation and the nature of young couples.
Then, picking up the ultrasound report, the doctor pointed to the images and continued, “This is your baby. It’s still small, but if you opt for a four-dimensional ultrasound at around twenty weeks, you’ll get a clearer view.”
The ultrasound images appeared as indistinct shadows to He Ming and Xiaomeng, who couldn’t make heads or tails of what the doctor was saying. Nevertheless, they listened attentively, almost like diligent students in a classroom.
It seemed there were many expectant mothers at the hospital for checkups that day. When He Ming and Xiaomeng left the obstetrics and gynecology department’s office, they saw long queues in the hospital corridors, with many men accompanying their heavily pregnant partners.
Although Xiaomeng was starting to show a bit, her slim figure and loose-fitting clothes made her pregnancy barely noticeable.
