On March 4, 2002, a group of enthusiastic residents carrying eggs, brown sugar and other items were outside the operating room of Beijing Maternity Hospital, and they were anxious to look in the direction of the operating room. Outside the door was a man who looked to be nearly thirty years old, his face covered with his hands, his forehead full of nervous sweat.
An enthusiastic aunt ran to the man and comforted: "Oh, Xiao Jiao, don't be nervous." It's full of obstetrics and gynecology experts, and your wife will definitely be safe. ”
The man who was called Xiao Jiao looked up at his aunt and smiled bitterly: "Auntie, it's not that I don't believe in experts, but after all, there are five children in the belly of the baby's mother!" ”
Who is the man who is standing outside the operating room? Did his wife, who was pregnant with quintuplets, give birth? And now, how are the couple and their children doing?
"Pregnant with quintuplets!" During the production, I was closed at the ghost door."
Wang Cuiying was born on January 10, 1967 in a remote mountain village in Cangzhou, Hebei Province. Wang Cuiying's family conditions were not good, and when she was a child, she often did not have enough to eat, and when she was very hungry, she would go to the mountains with the children of the same village to pick up wild vegetables to eat. When Wang Cuiying was fourteen years old, she came from home to work in the county.
Wang Cuiying had several love affairs during her part-time job, but in the end she was dismissed because the man hated his family's poverty. When Wang Cuiying was thirty years old, he met Bao Cun, who was also working in the county town.
Seven years younger than Wang Cuiying, Bao Cun is enthusiastic, very kind to Wang Cuiying and does not care about the age difference between the two. Soon, Wang Cuiying and Bao Cun came together and married at the end of the same year.
After getting married, Wang Cuiying always wanted to give birth to a child for Bao Cun, because in that era, women who could not have children would harvest the gossip of their neighbors. But Wang Cuiying is already thirty years old, and in the 1990s, she was considered an advanced maternal age.
Wang Cuiying and Bao Cun went around seeking medical treatment and medicine, and it can be said that they were painstakingly trying to conceive a baby. Finally, after four years of marriage, the two got what they wanted. In September 2001, Wang Cuiying had a morning sickness reaction, and the family was ecstatic and full of expectations for this unborn baby.
Wang Cuiying initially thought that this fetus was no different from other pregnant women, but as her stomach gradually began to show her pregnancy, Wang Cuiying found that her stomach was much larger than other pregnant women.
She hurried to the local hospital with her husband for examination, but when she arrived at the hospital, the doctor told them that Wang Cuiying was actually pregnant with quadruplets!
Both Bao Cun and Wang Cuiying were shocked by the news. Doctors advised them to reduce the fetus because the pregnancy of quadruplets was very harmful to both the child and the mother. But Wang Cuiying did not agree to reduce the fetus, she believed that her stomach was full of children she had so hard to conceive, and she could not lack any of them.
The local hospital in Cangzhou told them that because there were too many fetuses, the hospital was not sure about this operation, and suggested that Wang Cuiying was best to go to Beijing for medical treatment.
Wang Cuiying and Bao Cun came to Beijing from afar, and after examination at the Beijing Hospital, they found that What Wang Cuiying had in her stomach was not quadruplets, but quintuplets! She has a fetus in her stomach that is overweight and can easily block the fetus behind her during the examination!
The probability of conceiving a quintuplet is about one in sixty million. The doctor told Wang Cuiying that the existence of quintuplets was a miracle, but it was also a big trouble.
Accidents can easily occur during the birth of quintuplets, but now that the child in the belly has been more than three months old, the best time to miss the fetus reduction is missed, and pregnant women are also likely to be in danger during the process of fetal reduction.
Wang Cuiying touched her bulging stomach, and she thought that her stomach was full of her own bone and blood. Since there are risks, it is better to leave the children behind. Wang Cuiying gritted her teeth, and then firmly told the doctor in Beijing: "Sheng! I'm going to give birth to all five children!" ”
After receiving Wang Cuiying's decision, the doctors at Beijing Hospital told Wang Cuiying that the whole department would do its best to help Wang Cuiying give birth to all five children safely.
After people in the society knew about the quintuplets, they gave love to Wang Cuiying. Many enterprises and individuals have sent donations, and more enthusiastic people near the hospital have donated eggs, brown sugar, diapers and so on.
As the fetus grew larger and larger in Wang Cuiying's body, her stomach grew bigger and bigger day by day like an inflated leather ball. The pregnant stomach compressed the space of internal organs in the body, and Wang Cuiying's normal breathing became difficult.
But she followed the doctor's advice, for the nutrition of the fetus in the stomach to continue to gain weight for herself, in the later stage, Wang Cuiying's feet began to be puffy, unable to stand, and daily life could only lie on the bed. But lying down can not always maintain a posture, every three or five minutes, Wang Cuiying will slowly move her body and change a sleeping position.
Finally, seven months after the pregnancy, the expert group decided to carry out a caesarean section for the safety of Wang Cuiying and the fetus.
On March 4, 2002, after more than two hours of surgery, Wang Cuiying successfully gave birth to five children, including two boys and three girls, at the Beijing Maternity Hospital. Because of premature birth, the child was carried into the incubator as soon as it was born.
Although they survived the difficult time of birth, the five children faced other problems. On the sixth day of his life, Wang Cuiying's second son entered the intensive care unit because of necrotizing colitis, and the situation was very critical, and the doctor also issued a critical illness notice.
Under the continuous rescue of doctors, the second son finally escaped from the hands of the disease. But the good times did not last long, and a few days later the third child suffered from jaundice again, and the fourth child even had heart problems.
In the first few dozen days of birth, everyone was worried about the situation of these five babies.
Fortunately, Heaven took care of it, and all five children survived. After being discharged from the hospital, Wang Cuiying named the five children: Fuqing, Fusen, Fuxin, and Fuyuan. Wang Cuiying expressed her good wishes for her children in her name.
"Quintuplets grew up with social support"
Although the child was born smoothly, it became difficult to raise five children to grow up.
The family's original savings were spent little during Wang Cuiying's pregnancy, and the five babies' food and clothing were particularly expensive. In this case, there are enthusiastic companies that have heard about the quintuplets and offered to provide milk powder for the quintuplets for seven years. This solves the urgent need of the couple.
Every two hours, Wang Cuiying had to feed the children, waiting for the five children to take turns to drink the milk, and after washing the bottles, they immediately had to carry out the next round of feeding.
Sometimes when they are busy and dizzy, they will feed the wrong children, some children drink milk twice, and some children cry when they don't drink milk. Especially at night, Wang Cuiying was surrounded by the cries of babies all night, and the couple could not even close their eyes.
Because she could not take care of the five children, Wang Cuiying gave three of them to her mother-in-law, grandmother and sister-in-law to feed separately. At night, the child lives in someone else's house and returns during the day.
When the children reached the age of three, Wang Cuiying and his wife found more serious problems. Kindergarten tuition is high, and the family can't afford the tuition of five children.
When other children were playing with their classmates in the kindergarten, Wang Cuiying's children could only nibble their hands outside and look at others. This made Wang Cuiying and his wife feel very remorseful.
The turning point came in 2005, when Wang Cuiying took her quintuplets to a program on Beijing Satellite TV. Other children will sing children's songs and recite ancient poems, while Wang Cuiying's children can only perform corn peeling for the audience on stage.
The five sensible children touched the enthusiastic masses, and the charity donated 100,000 yuan to them. More educational institutions in Beijing took the initiative to contact Wang Cuiying, saying that they could provide free education for five children for three years.
Wang Cuiying was grateful to Shu Zero, and after consulting with her husband, Wang Cuiying took her five children to the north to study, while her husband Bao Cun stayed in Cangzhou to farm and work odd jobs to earn money.
Wang Cuiying rented a set near the kindergarten, and found a way to do home economics. Send the children to the kindergarten every morning, and then pick up the children in the evening after the work is done.
This environment allows all five children to be more sensible than children of the same age. In the evening, after Wang Cuiying picked up the child and went home, the five children would also take the initiative to give Wang Cuiying a massage. Although the days were poor, Wang Cuiying felt very happy because of her child's understanding.
"Quintuplets become Olympic five-year-old baby"
On November 11, 2005, the mascot of the Beijing Olympic Games was officially released, and as the Olympic Games approached day by day, the images of the five anthropomorphic Fuwa slowly entered thousands of households in China.
The father of the quintuplets, Bao Baocun, saw Wufuwa and had a flash of inspiration in his heart. Fuwa is five, and his own children are also five, and there is also a blessing in the name of his own child, which is a fateful thing!
Bao Cun told his wife Wang Cuiying about the idea, and the two then wrote an application for their five children to become little volunteers for the Beijing Olympics. The two sent the volunteer book from Cangzhou, Hebei Province, to the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee.
On March 5, 2007, the quintuplets turned five years old and made a wish on their birthdays that they would be able to play the "Olympic Five Blessings".
As more and more people learn about the quintuplets, many people support the suggestion that the quintuplets are "live-action version of Fuwa".
In the end, the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee adopted this suggestion, and the quintuplets, as the "smallest Olympic ambassadors" of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, also received a ribbon awarded to them by the Olympic Organizing Committee.
"Father dies, quintuplets return to their hometowns to go to school"
In January 2017, wang Cuiying and her five children still live in a rental house in Beijing's Fengtai district after the tragic death of her exhausted quintile father, Bao Cun.
Five children are enrolled in a junior high school in Beijing, but Wang Cuiying is facing a problem at this moment - because none of the five children have a Beijing hukou, they cannot take the college entrance examination in Beijing in the future. Wang Cuiying did not know whether to send the child back to her hometown.
Wang Cuiying contacted relatives in her hometown to ask for help and asked if she could move to Hebei to study. After many efforts, in August 2017, Wang Cuiying returned to Hebei with her five children. The eldest, Fusen, attends Yude Experimental Middle School in Hejian City, while the other four siblings are all in high school at Hejian No. 1 Middle School.
Because of the higher salary in Beijing, Wang Cuiying chose to return to Beijing to work after sending her children to school, giving each child three hundred yuan a month for living expenses, while all five children lived in high school.
Compared with the thousands of living expenses of classmates of the same age, the high school life of the five children is even poorer, but the children are very sensible and have never complained about their mothers.
In the canteen of Hejian No.1 Middle School, you can always see such a scene, three similar-looking girls playing three bowls of rice and a dish, and then sitting together to eat. Although it seemed very difficult, the three girls always had smiles on their faces.
In school, the quintuplets and their classmates also get along very well. Every time Wang Cuiying, who was far away in Beijing, called the children, the children would tell their mothers not to worry about themselves, and they would also tell Wang Cuiying to pay attention to rest and not to overwork.
During the epidemic in 2020, the whole school began to teach online classes. Five children are in their third year of high school, which is a critical period before the college entrance examination!
Wang Cuiying did not have extra mobile phones at home, and the family could not get the money to buy five mobile phones at once, so the eldest sister Fuqing took her younger brothers and sisters to the homes of people around her and used low prices to find old mobile phones that others did not use.
Although it was stuck, the quintuplets did not complain, on the contrary, everyone felt very satisfied. Mother Wang Cuiying was also touched by the children's understanding.
Before the college entrance examination, the old and young Fuyuan was admitted to hebei chemical and pharmaceutical vocational technical school through a single move. On July 7, 2020, the quadruplets took the college entrance examination together. Fuyuan, who did not take the college entrance examination, took the lead in finding a job as a security guard in Beijing, with a monthly package of food and housing, and a salary of 4,000.
Fuyuan said he wanted to work faster to help his mother guard the family. The other four children are not to be outdone, after the end of the college entrance examination, the four children saved money to buy a lot of handmade parts, using the home as a workshop, by assembling handicrafts to make money.
On July 23, the college entrance examination results of quadruplets were announced. The eldest sister Paid Fuqing scored 498 points, the second fusen test scored 269 points, the third fu li scored 442 points, and the fourth fuxin test scored 448 points.
The quintuplets of the Family are all liberal arts students, and although this achievement is not excellent among their peers, it is the result of the efforts of the five children.
"Procreation is a responsibility"
Today, the second brother Fusen is studying at a local vocational school in Henan, while several girls have come to normal universities.
According to Fu Fuqing's classmates, Fu Fuqing performed very well in college and served as a life committee member in the class. In his spare time, He Fuqing found a part-time job at the milk tea shop on campus, with a salary of about 1200 yuan a month. And Fuqing's younger siblings also earn money more or less part-time.
The quintuplets are now shining in their own circle of life, and we sincerely wish the five children to successfully complete their studies, find a good job, and live their wonderful lives.
After giving birth to quintuplets, Wang Cuiying once admitted that if she could do it all over again, she would rather choose not to conceive five children. She felt that she was really useless and could not give her children a good living environment.
But the time can not be turned back, since the birth of the child, Wang Cuiying still insists on raising the child. The most difficult days of life have passed, and now only a happy old age is left waiting for Wang Cuiying.
Choosing to have children is to choose to take responsibility for children, even if it is as difficult as Wang Cuiying, a quintuplet mother, but she has never thought of giving up her children. And in today's society, there are still a few examples of only having children and not raising children, I hope that every parent can think twice before giving birth and fulfill their responsibilities after birth!
