The Charming Ex-Wife Chapter 638 Her New Life Finished Astrid, who was previously engrossed in her romance , instantly sprang into action, wheeling over the wheelchair with utmost speed.
The man finally saw the pregnant woman sit down, and like someone who had just caught a lifeline, he turned to Karen, asking. "When we went for a prenatal check-up in the city, they said the due date was still more than a month away. But she suddenly went into labor this afternoon. Does this count as a preterm labor?" Karen could only make a reluctant assessment based on the pregnant woman's condition. "The amniotic fluid has already broken. She has to give birth now. However, our facilities are quite basic here. The most complex procedure we've performed is an appendectomy. We will do our best to stabilize her, but you should call an ambulance as soon as possible." Upon hearing this, the man was immediately filled with terror. “It takes at least two to three hours to get to the city hospital from here. I'm afraid my wife and child can't wait that long. We're running out of time!" Karen glanced at the pregnant woman in the wheelchair and then at the man. Gritting her teeth, she said, “Let's try to deliver the baby first and see if we can hold on until help arrives from the city hospital!" After she finished speaking, she hurriedly caught up with the nurse and Lysander, who were taking the pregnant woman to the only operating room in the health center. She asked Lysander, "Dr. Thorne, I remember reading in your profile that you used to work in the obstetrics and gynecology department at Central Hospital. Are you confident in handling a situation like this?" "We need to assess the patient's condition first, Lysander replied calmly. "The mother appears to not only have a preterm labor, but she also seems to be having signs of a difficult labor. The dilation phase is too fast, while the labor phase is clearly delayed. If we don't perform assisted delivery, there might be danger." The healthcare conditions in the village were significantly outdated. Before the establishment of the health center, many families would opt to have childbirth at home. The preparation involved nothing more than a basin of hot water and a pair of scissors, and at most, they might invite a local midwife for assistance. If they encountered a difficult labor, they were left to the mercy of fate.
Karen, who had worked there for many years, was highly familiar with the conditions of the health center. She stated candidly, "We're unable to perform C-section here. Even in the case of a difficult labor, we can only strive for a natural birth." This was the first tLysander encountered such a situation, but even when faced with danger, she didn't show a hint of fear. "I'll think of a way to help adjust the baby's position," she said.
Karen, upon observing Lysander's youthful age yet composed demeanor, recognized the air of an expert about her. She nodded and said, "All right. I'll assist you today." The operating room in the health center was seldom used throughout the year. However, the medical workers were always responsible. Even if it was just to stitch up a wound, they made sure to disinfect everything thoroughly. This commendable habit proved to be extremely useful that day.

Meanwhile, the nurse had already left the delivery room, sharing the good news with the man and relatives waiting outside.
The mother-in-law of the woman who had just given birth was overjoyed upon hearing that the baby weighed more than eight pounds. She was so thrilled that she couldn't stop smiling.

Thank you! I can't thank you enough..." "Don't thank us just yet. We still have a lot to handle," the nurse relayed Lysander's words to them. "The mother has just given birth and is quite weak. She needs to return to her ward to rest properly. Also, have -the baby's blanket and clothes been prepared? The child is still wrapped in the hospital's bed linen." It was then that the mother-in-law finally reacted. She took a bag from a relative waiting behind her and handed it to the nurse, saying, "Everything is in there. I've also brought clean clothes for my daughter-in-law to change into. I thought we still had a month, so I didn't prepare in advance and had to buy them. from the town at the last minute..." The man stood to the side, rubbing his hands together. His smile was earnest as he said, "Yes, we never expected the baby to ca month early. My mother-in-law is still on her way. I guess she won't be here until tomorrow." As it turned out, the woman who gave birth had been married off to this place from afar.
Upon hearing this, the nurse could only first direct them to wheel the new mother back to her ward. Along the way, she reiterated many of the precautions that needed to be taken, as Lysander instructed. It was only after the new mother was comfortably settled in that the nurse returned to fetch the baby.
