<h4>Chapter 1210: 1210. Still, let’s go for the C-section.</h4>
She had thought that since her child hadn’t caused her much trouble during the pregnancy, the birth wouldn’t be much of a fuss either.
But no, the moment the car arrived at the hospital, her water broke.
At that, Adam Jones became an instant bundle of nerves.
Thankfully, in the Delivery Room, with the obstetricians already on standby, things didn’t descend into chaos.
It’s just that this child, beforeing into the world, was causing more trouble than William Campbell ever did.
She was only dted to one and a half centimeters when Elly Campbell started to feel the pain quite acutely.
She could still bear it, but by the time she was three centimeters dted, the pain was so intense she began to sweat coldly.
The man who remained by her side, refusing to leave the Delivery Room, was now more nervous than she was.
Even though they already had a son, William, this child was indeed the first one Adam had been present for all the way through.
It was also his first time watching his wife give birth.
Watching Elly’s eyebrows gradually knit together and the cold sweat beading on her forehead, Adam’s heart began to lodge itself in his throat.
Even though she’d had the epidural, that didn’t mean she waspletely numb to the pain.
Perhaps because Elly’s pain receptors were particrly sensitive, even with the epidural, the dtion now seemed to be causing her considerable difort.
The further along it went, the more pain she endured. By the time she was seven to eight centimeters dted, the sweat had already drenched her eyes.
Watching Elly in this state, Adam was consumed with regret.
He shouldn’t have listened to her, shouldn’t have let her go through with a natural birth.
Had it been a C-section, she wouldn’t be in so much pain now.
He had heard that the pain of childbirth reaches a level 12, whereas the pain a man feels when kicked in the groin is only a 10.
Theparison made Adam’s heart ache even more.
"Elly, don’t be so stubborn, let’s just have the doctor do the surgery?" he suggested.
Elly, in pain, raised her hand and pushed hard on his shoulder, "Don’t... don’te up with bad ideas, if I go for a C-section now, my previous suffering would be for nothing."
Adam Jones: "..."
Seeing his worried and pained expression, Elly felt a mix ofughter and tears. His concern made her momentarily forget her pain.
"Don’t worry, it’ll be better once the dtion isplete."
The midwife and the doctors were all in the Delivery Room, where actually at this time they weren’t needed, but Adam, out of concern, insisted on having the doctors remain there.
If he wasn’t in the Delivery Room, the midwives wouldn’t have been so anxious, but every time they looked up at his gloomy face, they felt unbearably nervous.
They wished Elly would dte to ten centimeters the next second.
"All ten centimeters dted."
Finally, the midwife breathed a sigh of relief, and with the end of the dtion, the bout of intense pain eased.
"Mrs. Jones, now follow mymands, when your abdomen tightens, start pushing..."
"That’s right... keep on."
"Take a deep breath..."
"Push, that’s it, the baby’s position is good, just push..."
"..."
"Waaah!!"
With a loud cry, Adam Jones’ tensed nerves abruptly rxed, and Elly also curved her lips into a smile.
Before Adam had a chance to look at the newborn, he rushed to Elly’s side and knelt beside her, his heart and eyes overflowing with tenderness—
"Darling, you worked so hard."
Elly raised her hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and teased:
"You worked hard too, Lord of the Ind."
Adam felt a bit embarrassed by Elly’s teasing, though he didn’t deny it.
Indeed, during those several hours of dtion, he was on edge, wishing he could rush forward and have the baby for her.
At that moment, the midwife, holding the clean baby, approached them.
