On the third day of June, An Jing's belly was already showing signs of impending labor, with feelings of tightness and a sensation of weight dropping, coupled with occasional intense pains, and both the midwives and Doctor Jiang had been summoned by Xiao Changyi to stand by.
There were two midwives.
An Jing's belly was truly massive, as though the child within was on the verge of bursting through her skin. Even though these two midwives had delivered many babies and were exceptionally experienced, they could not help but break into a cold sweat for An Jing upon seeing the sheer size of her abdomen.
They had never seen a pregnant woman with such an enormous belly before.
Fearing that An Jing could go into sudden labor, Changyi also had Meng Zhuqing hire two quick-handed matrons to keep boiling hot water constantly, ensuring an ample supply was available at all times.
