Jia YuTu's POV:
I wriggled my hands and legs, stretching them to prep them for my soon to arrive birth.
Although I'm not sure about the exact time passed, I'm pretty sure that it's around 5 months or so. This means that my birth will arrive soon!
Just thinking about it made my blood pump. I mean, I was excited about this reincarnation thing and all but I'm bored out of my mind now!
There's literally nothing in this place! All I can do is witness myself grow fatter every day and my limbs developing at a speed slower than a snail. During the time I spend in my mother's womb, I feel like I've reached enlightenment and nothing could bother me anymore.
Anyway, back to the main point. I'm in especially high spirits today! I mean, soon I will born! I've been containing myself for so long! It was so hard to resist not to kick. But all ends now! The official start of my new life will arrive soon!
When I was having an amazing time fantasizing about the days to come, I felt a shake and the weird sticky gel-like substances all started to disappear. My heart sped up. I knew this was the sign that I was going to be born!
I was excited all over again. You can't blame me. It's one thing to think about something and it's another to experience it.
A thought suddenly came to mind. 'Ah! I have to get my head out first and avoid getting strangled by the pink flesh tube!'
How smart I am! I flipped myself as I praised myself. Now the delivering will be safe.
I felt myself sliding down slowly, accompanied by cries of pain coming from mother. My heart ached for her, so I tried to speed things up a little by giving myself a little push with my legs. But my mother's crying just got louder which made me stop my movements.
Well, it's better to let nature run it's tracks.
After a long time, I heard an unfamiliar voice.
" Ah! I see it! I see the head! Push! Just a little more! Push!" Must be the hospital people.
I hear my mother let out one last cry before I hear that person's excited cries. "It's out! The baby's finally out!
I wanted to quickly see the word but the blinding light quickly made me squeeze my eyes shut and I clenched my little hands and my feet curled up.
Damn my eyes hurt! I was so surprised at the pain that I couldn't help but let out a few cries before stopping myself.
Ugh! How shameful! No matter what I'm still 28 years old! How could I whine and cry like that! I felt like digging a hole a burying myself in that ditch!
I felt myself getting lift up, presumably the doctor, and then I got placed down again in someone else's hand. Must be mother. I felt mother stroking my head and whispering comfort words to me.
Mother! My eyes teared up at her affections. But... I'm fine! Really! That cry from before was just an accident! Accident!
But eventually I was tired out and I was getting tired from all my inner thoughts trying to come out. I need to quickly practice speaking. I felt my consciousness fading away.
Damn it. This body is really inconvenient. The lack of stamina is shocking. I tried to stay away and I grabbed something during the struggle. But before I could identify what it was, I fell asleep from exhaustion.
--------------------
I woke up in my mother's arms. My eyesight was really blurry. I can't tell what is what except for a blur of colors. But I can find out enough if I piece all the clues together. So according to logic, not much time has passed. I tried to lift my head to look around but my head was surprisingly heavy and all I could manage was to turn my head with choppy movements and I barely accomplished any difference in my position. I gave up for now and closed my eyes and rested to restore my stamina for another try.
I heard my mother chuckle softly and felt her pat my head.
"Baby, look at you, your so precious. As long as I have you, it's enough. I've decided on your name. You will be called Jia YuTu."
I sighed contently in comfort and leaned into her hand. At that sight, my mother laughed softly again.
"Look at you! You're already so attached. What will I do with you in the future!" Mother sounded like she was scolding me but I could hear the affection and love in her voice.
I wish I could do more like talking to her. I decided that for now, my goal would be to master the basics of life like moving and talking. The rest can come later. I have no choice but to lower my expectations for now.
Sigh. I kind of wish time would stop so I can stay here forever.
While I was snuggling in my mother's embrace, my mother suddenly exposed her chest and puts it in front of me. It shocked me a little. I mean not to make a dirty comment or anything but her things were huge! They were like hills- no- mountains!
And I got breastfeed with great internal struggles for me.
Another chapter out at last! Phew! This was a real struggle considering what I know about much I knew about child birth.
Quick question. What do you call the people that help deliver birth? Nurses? Doctors? Surgeons? Midwife? Wet nurse? I have no idea so I just called them hospital people. I request help!
