The King’s Enchanting

Chapter 1761 - 1775: Pregnancy Diary (10)

"Actually, you don’t need to worry too much. For now, it looks like one of the twins is bigger and the other smaller; the smaller one is probably just developing slowly. There are many reasons for slow development, possibly because you couldn’t eat much earlier and were malnourished. As for deformities—I didn’t notice any," the doctor spoke casually. "Even if the smaller one really has issues, it generally won’t affect the other fetus or the mother. As long as the pregnancy progresses smoothly, the delivery should go well. However, we can’t check for deformities now; the earliest we can detect anything would be around six months."

As long as it’s not conjoined twins and presently there aren’t any deformities, the two finally felt a bit relieved. After a while, Jian Anning asked, "Then, can the smaller one be saved?"

"It can be," the doctor nodded. "It’s rare for all multiples to develop exceptionally well; there’s usually one that’s slightly weaker. Pay attention to nourishment, avoid any strenuous exercise. Come back in two weeks to check again."

Only now did their minds completely calm down. Having twins is supposed to be a joyful occasion, but if something goes wrong, it would become a disaster.

This doctor, like Feng Linxue, is straightforward, telling them the worst-case scenarios and even mentioning probabilities.

"Don’t stress too much. I looked at the previous medication prescribed when you were ill; honestly, it generally doesn’t affect the children. The smaller one indeed has delayed development; have Dr. Feng give you some dietary supplements. Even if you feel like vomiting after eating, you must stubbornly ensure you eat. Otherwise, the smaller one might really be in danger."

After hearing the doctor’s words, the two nodded and left. First, they took Feng Linxue back to the Leng Family. After she got off, she had them wait outside for a while and then handed them the list of dietary supplements, advising, "Don’t worry too much. Rest well and nourish yourself. It’s normal for multiples to have one bigger and one smaller. Finding out early means you can take care and deliver both children. Your body is still in good condition, and this strong reaction might be due to a cold, as well as being pregnant with twins. Don’t worry too much, take care of yourself, and the children will be fine."

Jian Anning nodded. Though still somewhat uncertain, as a mother, she must stand strong. Even if her children are fine now, she simply needs to take care of her health. Even if something did happen to the children—even if it cost her life—she would ensure their safety!

Back home, night had already fallen. The two looked at the familiar door and took a deep breath. Although their expressions had softened considerably, there was still a hint of heaviness on their faces.

"Ding-dong."

"Anning, you’re back!" Xia Ziyu’s face appeared before them. Ever since Jian Anning became pregnant, Xia Ziyu’s attitude towards her had shifted 180 degrees. Previously, she was the subject of idle gossip in the family, but now, she had become the most beloved person in the household. Though it’s not quite like the ancient times, where they’d keep staring at your belly, Jian Anning’s pressure is certainly no less than before.

Faced with enthusiastic family members, despite having been told to relax, there was still a slight stiffness on their faces.

"Grandma, I..."

Before she finished her sentence, Xia Ziyu asked, "Did something happen?"
