Some love turned out to be so painful and so difficult!
The next day, Jason took Grace to tMason Swansontyâs best maternity hospital for a check-up. Kyla was also admitted to the same hospital for her pregnancy.
âIâve been coming to this hospital a lot lately.â Grace could not help saying with a sigh. âLetâs go visit Kyla later after Iâm done.â
âOkay,â answered Jason.
Grace underwent a series of tests in the hospital and was told that the baby already had a heartbeat when she did the ultrasound.
Graceâs eyes reddened instantly. âThe babyâs heartbeat! That means the baby in my belly truly exists.â
After coming out of the ultrasound room, Grace put a hand on her belly, her eyes reddening.
Jason quickly walked forward and said, âWhatâs wrong? Did you just cry?â
Grace sniffed. âThe baby already has a heartbeat. Itâs one baby. The doctor says the babyâs statistics are good so far.â
âDid the doctor say youâre in good shape to have a baby?â he quickly asked.
âThe ultrasound is only to check the babyâs condition. We need to evaluate all other aspects to know whether Iâm capable of carrying the child,â said Grace.â
She knew he would not have asked such a silly question under normal circumstances. He had just become muddle-headed due to his concern.
The two went to the consultation room again. The doctor in charge of overseeing Graceâs case was a highly respected obstetrics and gynecology specialist in Emerald City.
âJudging from the current situation, everythingâs fine. Itâs just that your uterus was injured before, and it was also damaged when you were pregnant with your triplets. We donât know whether your body will be able to provide adequate nutrition to the baby yet. We also have to wait until the baby is older to see if the placenta is attached to the C-sectionâs incision. It could be dangerous if it is, and we would recommend you terminate the pregnancy.â
The doctor cited two potential risks and said, âWe need to see your other test results before making a final decision. Those reports should come out in a week.â
Jason was worried as they left the hospital, and Grace asked, âWhatâs wrong? The doctor said we have to wait and see. Besides, the baby hasnât grown its placenta. What if the placenta is alright? Then thereâs no danger at all.â
âBut ifâ¦â
Her finger was pressed against his lips. âJay, I promise I wonât bet my life on this because I know itâs not just my life Iâm betting on but yours too!â
âDo you really want this baby?â he murmured.
Her eyes were full of reluctance. âIâm reluctant to give the baby up, so Iâll do everything I can to save this little life. But if it comes to the last resort, Iâ¦â
It turned out it was difficult to utter some things. It turned out that some things were uncomfortable just thinking about them.
