Back to the 60s: The Struggle Career of a Charmed Wife

Who is Xiuying? She is Jin Cuihua's sister-in-law, and her full name is Niu Xiuying.

Jin Cuihua's husband is the eldest, and Xiuying's husband is the fifth child. Among the three sisters-in-law, they have the best relationship. No, when they heard that Xiuying was about to give birth, they were the first to come to Feng Qingxue.

There is only one midwife in their production brigade. Although she is very skilled, the mortality rate of midwives is extremely high.

Even so, everyone is still looking for her, because there are too few people in this field, and it was an untouchable occupation in the old days.

Now this stable woman is getting older, and her delivery is not stable, and sometimes she cannot be found. Many women give birth at home. There are older female elders in the family, so they rely on their own birth experience. Deliver babies to younger generations.

Life or death, it all depends on God's will.

This was the third child born to Niu Xiuying. The first child, a daughter, survived, but the second child, a son, did not survive. The total life span was less than ten days.

Feng Qingxue hurried over with Jin Cuihua. As they walked, she asked Lu Tianjun to run home and bring over a medicine box with a red cross that she had placed in the closet and two thermos bottles filled with hot water at home.

The medicine box was given to her by Dr. Guo before leaving the military hospital.

Since she devoted herself to studying medicine, she had to have a career, so Dr. Guo and several nurses from the hospital who had taught her cobbled together a set of them and put them in the medicine box.

"And bring our new toilet, too!"

Guan Cheng stood up suddenly, "Tian Juan and I will go together!"

The two had long legs and fast feet. Not long after Feng Qingxue arrived in front of Niu Xiuying, the two children rushed over quickly carrying medicine boxes, hot water bottles and toilets. They were panting and sweating profusely.

Niu Xiuying was lying on the ground screaming, with a layer of corn stalks spread under her body. The strong laborers of the production team were far away, and only a few middle-aged and elderly women surrounded her to cheer her up.

Such production conditions were so crude that Feng Qingxue sighed. It was so unhygienic.

Now it was too late to tell them to pay attention to hygiene. Feng Qingxue rolled up her sleeves and stepped forward. On the way, she had heard Jin Cuihua talk about Niu Xiuying's condition. Her main task now was to check the fetal position, open the medicine box, and use the simple stethoscope of this era to test Listening to the fetal heartbeat and disinfecting the scissors and towels, I was very busy.

Use alcohol to disinfect scissors.

The bottle contains alcohol, prepared in my own space, and is claimed to be liquor.

The clean towels that had been boiled in boiling water were soaked in the hot water poured into the toilet. Feng Qingxue also washed her hands and asked the woman nearby to help empty the sewage in the bucket, and then poured some hot water in to dry. cold.

There was no way, the conditions were so simple, she could only do this.

Niu Xiuying had experience in giving birth. In about an hour, the birth canal opened ten fingers. There was no suspense and she gave birth to a child smoothly. She still had a baby, but her mother-in-law who was watching over her was very happy.

The birth process is important, and so is postpartum care.

Feng Qingxue didn't mind it being dirty, so she carefully cut off the umbilical cord, poured hot water into the toilet and mixed it with cold water to make warm water. After washing it, she wrapped it in the old clothes that Jin Cuihua asked her son to run home and waited for Niu Xiuying to expel the placenta. Afterwards, she found that everything was normal and there was no sign of bleeding. Then she said to Niu Xiuying, who was lying on the haystack and breathing heavily: "Consume your confinement at home well, and then work again after confinement. Don't take yourself seriously." "I also told her and Jin Cuihua some postpartum hygiene knowledge.

"Thank you, big sister!" Niu Xiuying looked sideways at her newborn son, very happy.
