Chapter 793 Doesn't It Look Like a Peapod?

"Morning sickness is one of the normal symptoms of pregnancy. There's no need to be overly worried. The average mother will stop experiencing morning sickness after the first trimester."

"The average mother?" Jude seemed to have noticed something. "Does that mean there are exceptions?"

"That's possible. Some people would suffer from morning sickness throughout the pregnancy, but they're the rare minority."

Jude almost fainted from shock. There are actually women who suffer from morning sickness for ten full months? How do people not die from that?

"Doctor, one last question: Do you have any medicine that could help with my morning sickness?" She could not stand the discomfort anymore.

"You can't take any medicine as you wish during the pregnancy. Plus, there's no medicine to help with morning sickness. Ma'am, just remind yourself when you're suffering that everything you're going through is a sign of good fetal development. Keep a happy mood and eat light but frequent meals. Take light foods that are nutritious. You'll get a healthy baby that way."

Jude drew a long sigh. "So, just because all women go through the same thing, I'm expected to keep puking?"

How could modern medical technology not be able to treat something as simple as morning sickness?

The gynecologist answered embarrassedly, "Yes, most people suffer from morning sickness during pregnancy. Since people have different body conditions, their reactions vary. Some even show the opposite reaction they would have a huge appetite and eat so much that they end up gaining a whopping eighty pounds."

Jude stared at the gynecologist, mouth agape.

"How about this? I'll prescribe some Vitamin B6 tablets for you to alleviate your symptoms. Still, the effect varies across people. Just keep in mind that the tablets aren't effective on certain women, and these patients will keep suffering from morning sickness."

With the Vitamin B6 prescription in hand, Jude felt like she was clutching at straws.

After getting back from the hospital, she immediately went to lie in her bed. Satan felt very sorry to see her in such a horrible state.

"Jude, what do you want to eat?"

"Soup and blanched vegetables." She had no other choice even though the last thing she wanted was to take sustenance, but she had to do so to stay alive. Otherwise, she would have readily accepted dying from hunger.

He gave a huge sigh and ordered the servants to prepare the food. Then, he gently caressed her hair with a sorry look in his eyes.

She looked at him with an amused expression. "Are you feeling sorry for me?"

"Yeah."

"If so, you will have to treat me well in the future. I'm going through this hell for you! I thought it was awful enough to have to take medicine and injections to prepare for pregnancy. Who would have known that the pregnancy itself is the real challenge!" She pouted, looking pitiful and forlorn.

"Okay. I promise to treat you well."

"That's more like it." She beamed at him. "By the way, I have something to show you. Go to my luggage and take out the cow leather envelope from the innermost compartment."

He followed her instructions and came back with the cow leather envelope, from which she took out an ultrasound report. Although she had gone to the hospital for a checkup just now, she did not go for an ultrasound scan because her last scan was quite recent. Therefore, the report in her hand was the only one available.

"Look! Do you know what this is?"

She handed him the ultrasound report. He accepted it and scrutinized it from different angles, not knowing which was the right direction. Finally, he managed to get some clues from the direction of writings on the report.

"What is this? Some sort of celestial movement?" The report had a dark image with some swaths of lighter areas. Aside from celestial movement, he could not think of anything similar to the image.

"What? Celestial movement? That's your baby!" She pointed at something on the report. "Look here. This is the fetal sac, which is technically our baby. The image here has been zoomed in multiple times! In fact, the baby is still very tiny."

"This is our baby?" He stared wide-eyed at the peapod-looking shape in the image.

"Yes! Doesn't it look like a peapod? Haha!" She finally smiled. "Selena told me that we could have a better look of the baby's facial features when we go for a 4D ultrasound scan. We can even take photos of the baby by then!"
