Chapter 108 Threatened Abortion
"Just one line, isn't it?" Johny looked at the stick.
"No!" Ceres pulled Johny towards the window. In the sunlight, Johny could see that there were really two lines, one of which was very faint.
If he didn't see carefully, it couldn't be noticed.
"Am I...? My period should have come days ago."
Johny took out his phone and checked. "Your average menstrual cycle for the past few months is 35 days. The shortest cycle is 26 days, and the longest is 38 days. Now it has been 39 days since your last period. So it's only one day late. The cycle is similar to the longest one."
Ceres was stunned. Why was he so familiar with her period cycle?
"Why are you so familiar with it?"
Johny didn't know how to answer. He just wanted to be clear about his girl's periods.
"So it's normal. Don't worry."
"What about this?"
Johny immediately called Bill and put him on speaker.
"Hey Johny, what's up?" Bill pretended a sweet voice.
"What does it mean if the pregnancy test stick shows two lines, and one of them is faint?"
"What? Is Ceres pregnant? Amazing, Johny! Awesome! You made it in such a short time!"
Bill's laughter from the other end made Ceres blush.
"Stop! Answer me now!"
"Well, the pregnancy test sticks are only 70% accurate, or even lower. If it is of low quality, it is not reliable at all. Generally speaking, you may see one faint line in the two in early pregnancy because the hormone level is still low. But..."
Bill paused for a second before continuing, "Before the period comes, many women will suffer hormonal confusion, and it may lead to this situation. Ceres, is your period regular?" "Why are you asking this?"
"If you don't tell me, I can't analyze it for you."
"Not regular."
"That's it. Then Ceres must have hormonal confusion. That's why you see this on the stick. Johny, you still need to work hard! I thought you were going to be a daddy!" Johny didn't want to chat with Bill. He hung up.
"Is Bill an expert in gynecology?" Ceres pursed her lips.
She knew little about that, but Bill could clearly explain it.
"He gets along with women." Johny chuckled.
Ceres covered her mouth and laughed, but she was still not relieved. "Then what's wrong with me? I may be in early pregnancy, right?"
"So how about going to the hospital? You also need to do a checkup. I will take you there when I'm free."
It would be troublesome if she was found having any disease when they wanted a baby.
Ceres didn't want to waste time. Johny was going to work tomorrow and they couldn't stay together. She wanted to spend more time with Johny.
"Forget it. It's not so easy to be pregnant. My period is always irregular."
"Then hurry up!" Johny carried Ceres onto the bed.
"What are you doing? Stop it!"
Johny threw Ceres onto the bed and kissed her...
When Ceres woke up the next day, Johny had left. Probably Johny wanted to enjoy the end of the holiday. Last night, they made love again and again, so Ceres was exhausted.
Ceres felt pain in her belly. She immediately went to the bathroom and found that there was a little blood on her underwear.
She felt a little sad that she was not pregnant.
It should be good, but somehow, she felt a bit disappointed.
Yesterday she even thought that if she really got pregnant, she would be a mother.
Johny was busy with the business of the two groups. He was fully occupied with work. Ceres went back to her home in Villa Amio. Recently, Johny left before she woke up and returned after she fell asleep. Johny also came back late today. It was the Lantern Festival tomorrow and he wanted to spend it with Ceres, so he finished the work for tomorrow. He thought that Ceres should be sleeping, but he found that the light in the room was on.
He opened the door and found Ceres sitting on the bed in a daze.
She looked worried.
"What's the matter?" Johny went to the bed.
Ceres threw herself into his arms. "I think I am really pregnant."
"Aren't you..."
Johny noticed the sanitary pads in the bathroom. But he had been too busy in the past few days and talked little to her. He had asked the servants to prepare warm milk for Ceres.
"On the next day after we left the Evian Town, my period came. But I felt something wrong these days. It has been very light. Usually, it just happens on the first two days of the period. But now it has been a week. It is still light and did not end."
Ceres had been in fear for several days. "I searched the Internet. This is like a sign of threatened abortion, not a period."
"It's my day-off tomorrow. Let's see a doctor."
Ceres nodded.
"Don't worry. You will be fine."
Johny and Ceres did not have a good sleep. They went to the hospital early in the morning and saw the best gynecologist.
They sat opposite the doctor, waiting for the report.
The doctor checked the data carefully and looked serious. "Mrs. Winsor, is it a large amount of blood?"
"No. It has lasted for a week."
"Does your belly hurt?"
"A little bit, just like the pain during periods."
"When was the last menstruation?"
"More than forty days ago."
"Did you have sex recently?"
Ceres and Johny exchanged glances. "Yes, a week ago."
"Mrs. Winsor, you are indeed pregnant. But be prepared. You show symptoms of threatened abortion." The doctor put the report on the table.
"What?"
Although Ceres had prepared herself, she was still surprised to hear it.
Not to mention Johny.
"You two should be careful. It is very easy to have a miscarriage in the first three months of pregnancy. You can't have sex during this time. Mrs. Winsor, now you need to stay in the hospital for treatment."☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
