"Daya..." Daya's mother held her daughter's hand nervously looking at the midwife.
"Don't worry, it's alright. She's just exhausted from childbirth, a nap will help," she said while cleaning up the second child, noting the weight and handing the baby to Mrs. Qi, then swiftly going back to tend to Daya.
She's delivered at least hundreds of babies; she can estimate the baby's weight by feel. Both of these babies have a satisfying weight; some families with single births might not even have babies this heavy.
Midwife Li pressed down on Daya's stomach from top to bottom to fully expel the placenta.
On the other side, Old Lady Hua and her daughter-in-law had also tidied up the two babies, wrapping them in carefully prepared swaddling clothes. Seeing the chubby babies made both of them smile joyously, their hearts melting.
