The Fallen Medicine Woman: The Daily Life of Chun Nuan-Chapter 371 - 213_3:

Chun Nuan also repeated what she had just answered.

However, the three of them truly had little experience, and didn’t even realize what impact these symptoms could have on the body.

"Come, watch carefully."

This matter still needed Chun Nuan to demonstrate.

"For taking the pulse, use your index, middle, and ring fingers to feel the patient’s pulse at the Cun, Guan, and Chi positions."

Chun Nuan touched her left hand with her right hand, demonstrating as she explained.

"This pulse feels like there’s a trail of bubbles flowing through my blood vessels, sometimes like a small iron ball rolling across my fingertips one by one."

As Chun Nuan spoke, Xiao Yin nodded repeatedly.

Yes, yes, yes, this was exactly the feeling.

They had felt the pulse before but didn’t know how to describe it.

"Did you remember the symptoms I mentioned?"

"Vomiting, drowsiness, frequent urination, chest swelling, and my period hasn’t come. Along with my pulse, what do you think these symptoms indicate?"

The three looked at each other, only Chen Xiaoyin stepped forward.

"Congratulations, Master, congratulations, Master."

The other three were puzzled.

What does this mean?

The master was sick, and yet Chen Xiaoyin was congratulating her here?

"This is a slippery pulse, and I’m pregnant, didn’t you notice?"

Chun Nuan directly asked, making the three blush: honestly, they didn’t notice at all.

"It’s not your fault because you’re learning from scratch, unlike Xiao Yin, who has read many medical books, so she could diagnose it."

"Actually, I hadn’t diagnosed Master’s slippery pulse before," Chen Xiaoyin said truthfully. "I just felt the pulse was a bit strange, couldn’t pinpoint why, then after asking Master many questions and recalling what the medical books described, I realized Master was expecting."

"Yes, you need to observe, learn, and practice a lot," Chun Nuan said. "Currently, it’s still early in my pregnancy, so it’s normal for you not to detect it. When a few more months pass, I’ll teach you how to feel a slippery pulse."

"Master, I heard some doctors can tell the baby’s gender, can you do that too?" 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

"I can’t."

In fact, Chun Nuan could, but she didn’t intend to teach them.

Learning this would have no practical use and would only lead to harming the lives of many baby girls.

That’s right, many families prefer boys over girls, only wanting sons. If it’s diagnosed as a girl, they would surely find a way to get rid of it with abortion medicines.

This would be committing sin for no reason, so Chun Nuan wouldn’t teach this.

"Since we’re talking about slippery pulse and my pregnancy today, I might as well tell you things pregnant women need to pay attention to."

The group thought... we’re not pregnant, why do we need to learn this?

"We’ll be doctors in the future, so when encountering pregnant women, we must advise them on precautions: what they can and can’t eat, what scents and flavors to avoid; also when they can and cannot have intercourse..."

The group blushed: such embarrassing topics.

"Having a child is the toughest yet happiest thing for a woman, hoping for the baby inside to come out soon and grow up quickly," Chun Nuan said. "So, women must take care of themselves, especially when pregnant; they should prioritize themselves and not be deceived by a man’s sweet words, accommodating everything for him. In the end, if something happens, the woman suffers, and worse she may be blamed by her mother-in-law..."

Chun Nuan explained the problems intercourse could cause the fetus.

Zhao Minghua listened inside, feeling anxious.

Fortunately, Doctor Chen had already taught him before.

No, no, it’s Chun Nuan who understood these things by herself, in fact, seemingly more than Doctor Chen.

Truly, pregnancy is really hard for women.

Zhao Minghua secretly vowed in his heart to treat Chun Nuan well, so she wouldn’t face so much pain and difficulty.

"Giving birth is a trial for women. If lucky, they get chicken soup; if not, they face King Yan, so during pregnancy, women must also be mindful of what they eat."

Besides avoiding cold and cool things, there is another rule to follow.

"Some believe a strong mother means a plump child. When a daughter-in-law is pregnant, a mother-in-law may worry only the plump grandson isn’t getting the best nourishment and let the pregnant woman eat more, believing it helps the child grow well," Chun Nuan stated, "not realizing that a fetus growing too well inside isn’t necessarily a good thing; it can make labor difficult, increasing the risk of cesarean delivery, even possibly resulting in the death of both mother and child."

Chun Nuan’s words sent a shiver down Zhao Minghua’s spine!

How frightening!

"Pregnant women shouldn’t overeat, nor eat too little, just a moderate amount is best,"

Chun Nuan continued teaching: "And confinement is also a topic worth studying deeply."
