In 2017, Shengjing Hospital affiliated to China Medical University welcomed a "heavyweight" mother.
Her name is Wang Wei, she weighs 320 pounds during pregnancy, the risk of childbirth is much higher than that of ordinary mothers, and it is very likely that she will not be able to get off the operating table.
Many hospitals did not dare to accept it until after asking for help from the media, Wang Wei came to Shengjing Hospital accompanied by her husband Jin Delong.
When it came time to give birth, Wang Wei weighed 332 pounds, and before going to the operating table, he specially recorded a "will" and insisted on keeping the child.
"Because the child is the crystallization of my love with my husband, I have always wanted to have a child for him, and it was not easy to wait for 9 years to conceive."
What is the story behind this couple that can make Wang Wei risk stillbirth?
So, what difficulties will she encounter in this production?
First, husband and wife are "can't fight away, scolding can't be dispersed"
In 2007, Wang Wei, 26, was a sales clerk at a shopping mall in Shenyang.
This summer, 27-year-old Kim Wentong went to apply for a job as a porter in the mall.
One day, Jin Delong unloaded the goods bare-chested, and Wang Wei passed by and accidentally rubbed his arm.
Jin Delong's face "smacked" red to the root of the ear.
Wang Wei, who was cheerful and cheerful, saw the situation and was directly happy: "This young man is interesting, his face is so thin." ”
Wang Wei began to talk to him from time to time, and the introverted Jin Delong was always overwhelmed, but slowly attracted to this cheerful girl.
The two gradually developed a relationship and established a romantic relationship.
At that time, Wang Wei weighed 240 pounds, but Jin Delong was thin, and the two walked on the street, always attracting the attention of pedestrians.
At first, Wang Wei felt great pressure, but Jin Delong took the initiative to say to her:
"As long as the two of us have a good relationship, I don't care about weight, and you don't care about other people's eyes." 」
Under the comfort of Jin Delong, Wang Wei stretched his brows and regained his former cheerfulness.
In 2008, two young people with sweet feelings planned to get a license to get married.
Wang Wei's father died when she was 11 years old, and her mother, Chen Yabin, raised her alone.
The mother has a strong personality, but gives her daughter enough pampering.
For Jin Delong, his mother Chen Yabin was very satisfied, felt that this young man was down-to-earth and reliable, and had no objection to their marriage.
But in Kim Delong's house, it didn't go so well.
Jin Delong's parents and eldest brother have always opposed this relationship because of Wang Wei's weight.
Kim Delong, who has always been obedient, made a rebellious move when faced with a lifelong event.
He stole the household registration book from his home and secretly married Wang Wei with a license.
After marriage, the two have always wanted children, but because of Wang Wei's physical reasons, they have not wanted to go up.
And Wang Wei's weight has been rising, reaching a "peak" in 2015.
At that time, she had an accident that injured her calf and had to recuperate at home.
Under the intimate care of her husband, Wang Wei's weight reached 382 pounds.
Being overweight puts Wang Wei's life on the verge of collapse.
Not to mention losing your job, even in daily life, many things can not be done by yourself.
Bathing and going to the toilet are inseparable from the help of my husband.
Because of excessive obesity, Wang Wei suffered from polycystic ovary syndrome and has been amenorrhea for 3 years.
One of the most striking features of POLYOS is the inability to produce mature eggs, and the most immediate result is the cessation of conception.
In order to have children, Wang Wei made up his mind to lose weight.
However, this pathological obesity, on its own, is no less difficult than ascending to heaven.
Life and work are affected by obesity, and even marriages are lit up with red lights.
Although Jin Delong treated Wang Wei as usual, his mother-in-law began to put pressure on Wang Wei.
In their view, such a daughter-in-law, not to mention that she cannot have children, cannot even take care of herself in life, dragging down her son.
When the noise was the most fierce, Jin Delong's eldest brother called Wang Wei directly:
"Hurry up and get a divorce, don't delay my brother!"
The opposition of the in-laws made Wang Wei angry and made her re-examine the marriage.
"My husband is in his early thirties, and it's not a problem to find a young girl to have a baby, I can't drag him down."
Wang Wei took the initiative to propose a divorce to her husband, and was rejected by Jin Delong every time.
Once, Wang Wei threw Jin Delong out of his house and threw all his luggage out of the door.
Wang Wei stood by the window to watch, half an hour passed, there was still no sign of her husband downstairs.
She opened the door and found Kim Delong crouched in front of the door, silently weeping.
Seeing Wang Wei come out, her husband Jin Delong told her:
"It's useless for you to drive me like this, what is a husband and wife?" Husbands and wives just can't fight away, scolds don't disperse, and never separate.
Jin Delong's inseparability has given Wang Wei a new understanding of marriage.
In this world, not all couples will "fly separately in the face of great trouble".
It was Kim Delong who made her understand that a woman like her can also experience happiness.
In fact, in Jin Delong's heart, his wife has paid far more than him in marriage.
Shortly after getting married, the couple went to do business in other places, and Kim Delong suffered a crushing fracture of the right skull due to a car accident.
At that time, the situation was critical, and the doctor said that even if he was rescued, he might become a vegetative person.
It was Wang Wei who dragged his bulky body and ran forward and backward to take care of her husband.
In order to let her husband receive better treatment, Wang Wei also went around whispering and borrowing.
Fortunately, Jin Delong woke up, except for a slight facial paralysis on the face, there were no other sequelae.
In Kim's view, obesity and infertility do not hinder their marriage;
But in Wang Wei's heart, no matter what, she had to work hard to lose weight, give birth to children for her husband, and make their marriage more complete.
Wang Wei said:
"Although we are very happy, we have no children, and we always feel that happiness is missing a corner."
Second, successful weight loss, unplanned pregnancy
The story of Wang Wei and Jin Delong was later reported by a media outlet.
In 2016, with the help of the media, a weight loss institution took the initiative to help Wang Wei lose weight.
After nearly a year of devil training, Wang Wei lost more than 140 pounds from 382 pounds to 240 pounds.
After losing weight, Wang Wei's overall state improved significantly.
She was no longer breathless after walking two steps as before, and her menstruation gradually returned to once every two months.
Then, a surprise came: in the 9th year of marriage, Wang Wei finally became pregnant.
On this day, Wang Wei bought 6 pregnancy test sticks in a row, and looked at the "two bars" lined up in a row, and she cried with joy.
Wang Wei excitedly called her husband who was at work to "announce the good news."
At first, Kim Delong couldn't believe it, but after repeated confirmation, he couldn't help but jump up.
Colleagues were puzzled and asked him what had happened.
When he learned that Kim Delong was going to be a father, everyone was also happy for him.
She has not been pregnant for 9 years, and happiness has come unexpectedly, which makes Wang Wei and his wife excited.
Like Wang Wei's weight, many women have lost the opportunity to be mothers, and the arrival of children is nothing less than a miracle.
They named the child in advance: happiness.
Happiness comes suddenly, but the dangers of the future are equally inevitable.
Third, pregnancy is full of difficulties
Throughout the pregnancy, Wang Wei had to endure greater suffering and pain than ordinary pregnant mothers.
After becoming pregnant, Wang Wei could not continue to lose weight, and his weight rose from 240 pounds to 320 pounds.
Their home is on the 6th floor with no elevator.
Nearly a hundred steps, Wang Wei supported more than 300 pounds of weight, holding a pregnant belly, it took at least 20 minutes, three or four breaks in the middle, to climb up.
Every time she got home, she was exhausted and panting, sweating profusely.
She often touched her stomach and said to Xiao Happiness:
"Happiness, when you grow up, you have to give your mother a good pat on the waist, and your mother is tired."
As the fetus grew, Wang Wei suffered more and more.
When she was 4 months pregnant, Wang Wei had a serious reaction to morning sickness, not only nausea, vomiting, but also colds.
She had three colds throughout her pregnancy, and in order not to affect the fetus, she could not take medicine, and she had to hold her stomach every time she coughed.
In the third trimester, she has to get up 4-7 times at night.
For her, every time she turned over at night, she had to carry her stomach hard, let alone go to the toilet.
Sometimes the fetus presses on the stomach and esophagus, causing the stomach to burn with fire like pantothenic acid water, which will cause Wang Wei to be unable to sleep all night.
Despite this, Wang Wei was always happy:
"This child was given to me by God, the crystallization of my love with Kim Delong, and I have to ask for him if I don't want my life."
However, every physical examination is Wang Wei's most nervous moment, and he often breaks down and cries.
Because of excessive weight, Wang Wei suffered from gestational diabetes and could only rely on insulin to control blood sugar.
If blood glucose is not well controlled, it may affect the development of the fetal lungs, and the probability of deformity is greater than that of ordinary fetuses.
Coupled with the thickness of abdominal fat, the fetal position changes frequently, and the doctor cannot hear the fetal heartbeat when doing the examination.
Whenever such a time came, Wang Wei always cried with self-blame.
She believes it is because she is too obese, affecting the test results and the health of the fetus.
Even Director Xia, who is responsible for receiving the treatment, even if he has 30 years of experience in the industry, has encountered many overweight pregnant women, but more than 320 pounds of pregnant women, it is the first time to see.
This kind of "heavyweight" pregnant mother, a vaginal birth is impossible, and can only choose caesarean section.
However, even if the expected date of delivery is successful, the risks and difficulties encountered during the operation cannot be predicted.
During a maternal caesarean section, lying flat during surgery after anesthesia is a problem.
After lying down, the weight of the abdomen causes a burden on the heart and lungs, which can easily trigger respiratory arrest in the mother;
Coupled with the excessive fat in the abdomen, it is not easy to see the fetus, let alone remove it in time.
Obviously, Wang Wei had long understood these risks.
She solemnly explained to Director Xia:
"It's okay Director Xia, then you will operate boldly, as long as you keep the small ones, the adults are at will."
Director Xia said that this risk should be clearly told to Wang Wei's husband before being admitted to the hospital.
"Just as I said, I am in charge of our family, and my husband agreed!"
But in case of an accident, does Jin Delong really agree to "protect the small house"?
For Wang Wei, the delivery date is approaching, and she is also worried that her husband will hesitate when things come.
Near the delivery date, after returning home from the obstetric examination, Wang Wei asked her husband again.
According to the previous two people discussed, it will be small at that time.
"If you keep me, I will hate you when I come out!"
She also specifically told her husband that in case she did not get off the operating table, she asked Jin Delong to take the child to 10 years old and then consider remarriage.
However, Jin Delong used a joke to split, silently put his face on his wife's stomach, and never had the courage to nod his head and agree to his wife.
For safety reasons, after checking the fetal indicators, the hospital recommended that Wang Wei be admitted to the hospital 1 week in advance and undergo a caesarean section.
Before being hospitalized, Wang Wei may also be worried that he will not be able to get off the operating table, and deliberately pulled her husband to take photos of her pregnant mother.
The huge size made Wang Wei make a lot of jokes when trying on clothes, and the whole process was full of laughter.
After an afternoon of busy work, Wang Wei was tired and sweaty, but his face was full of happy smiles.
Being able to leave precious memories with her child makes her extremely satisfied.
The day before the operation, the doctors made various tests for Wang Wei to assess the possible risks and prepare for the operation.
Director Xia also carefully explained various situations to her husband Jin Delong, and Jin Delong's face became heavier and heavier.
That night, the clouds were thick outside, lightning and thunder, and Jin Delong snuggled up to his wife and did not sleep all night.
This man is also going through the most difficult moments.
Can the wife and children survive tomorrow at the same time?
Fourth, make a "will" and reconcile mother and daughter
May 12, 2017, is Nurses' Day.
At 8 o'clock in the morning, Wang Wei was pushed into the operating room.
More than 10 medical staff from 6 departments, including surgical obstetrics, anesthesiology and neonatology, have long been ready and waiting in the operating room.
Wang Wei's husband, Jin Delong, and his mother, Chen Yabin, waited silently outside the operating room with dignified faces.
For her mother, Chen Yabin, she has always disapproved of her daughter's behavior of sacrificing her life to give birth, and even complained.
Chen Yabin was widowed at the age of 35 and raised his daughter alone.
Now that she is 60 years old, her daughter is bent on going her own way in order to have a child, and she does not care about her feelings.
In fact, where is the resentment of the mother, it is clear that she is distressed about her daughter's suffering and worried about her daughter's safety.
At the beginning of the operation, the nurse handed over the "will" she had recorded the night before to her mother, Chen Yabin, according to Wang Wei's previous instructions.
In the video, Wang Wei, who has always been optimistic, choked up several times when he spoke to his mother.
"Mom, I am an unqualified daughter, with an indisputable body, and I have been bothering you to take care of me hard..."
"I don't know if I can pass this level tomorrow, but Mom, I love you."
"I also want to be a mother, and only then do I understand that for the sake of my children, what is the sacrifice of being a mother, I hope my mother understands."
"If there is an accident in the operation tomorrow, Kim Delong hesitates, Mom, you will definitely help me and keep my happiness."
This mother, who has been strong for her daughter all her life, is now tearfully smashed on the screen of her mobile phone.
"Now I have no choice but to help her realize her dreams, and in case there is an accident, I will help my daughter bring up her children."
Mother and daughter reached a reconciliation over the air, and in the operating room, doctors were racing against the clock to work.
Fifth, the surgical danger is everywhere
The first level of surgery is anesthesia.
At this time, Wang Wei weighed 332 pounds and could only use sitting anesthesia.
Two doctors stood against the front platform to help Wang Wei fix his posture.
Because the waist fat is thick, the detected anesthesia point in the spinal canal is 8 cm, and the length of the anesthesia needle is only 8 cm.
This means that to be successful, the anesthesiologist must puncture to the anesthesia point without fail.
Despite the careful handling of the anesthesiologist, the first anesthesia failed.
After adjusting the position, the anesthesiologist made a second attempt, which was successful.
After the anesthesia took effect, Wang Wei's lower body strength was directly removed, and her stomach pressed against the wall of her abdomen.
Wang Wei is big, the operating bed is much narrower for her, in addition to tying her legs, there are 4 doctors on the scene who take turns to support her stomach and assist in the operation.
Next, Director Xia had to race against the clock to open the abdomen to retrieve the fetus.
If they do not remove the fetus within the optimal time of 3 minutes, it will increase the risk of fetal death in the womb.
Long-term supine can easily cause hypotension syndrome and cause cardiac arrest.
The fat layer in Wang Wei's abdomen was 15 centimeters thick, and after the layers were cut open, the doctors finally saw the baby's head.
However, the position of the fetus is high, and it is difficult to remove it smoothly.
For women of normal weight, the doctor will generally take abdominal pressure to help the child deliver.
However, Wang Wei's abdominal fat was too thick, and even if he added abdominal pressure, he could not press the uterus.
Just as the doctors were working intensively, Wang Wei was lying flat, showing signs of panting and labor.
Everyone did not dare to stop the speed of their hands, and with some cooperation, after 5 minutes, the child was finally born.
"Little Happiness" is a baby boy, weighing 7 pounds and 1 pair.
Accompanied by a loud baby cry, Wang Wei on the operating table instantly burst into tears.
After 9 years of marriage and the torment of pregnancy in October, she finally became a mother.
The doctor pushed the child out of the delivery room, and Wang Wei's family gathered around.
Hearing that it was a boy, the in-laws applauded excitedly.
Kim was also very happy, he and his wife had been hoping to have a son, and now they finally got it.
However, there was always a big stone pressing down on him in his heart.
Whether the wife can get off the operating table safely is still unknown.
After the fetus was removed, Director Xia did not dare to delay, and immediately performed the third step of the operation: suturing the abdomen.
Due to Wang Wei's heavy body and thick fat, sutures in the abdomen are also a big difficulty.
Just as the doctor was suturing, an accident happened.
Wang Wei's long-term lying down caused her to hold her breath, and she unconsciously held her breath, causing the intestinal tube and other tissues to gush out at once.
In order to cooperate with Director Xia's smooth suture, the anesthesiologist alleviated Wang Wei's discomfort by administering the drug.
At this time, Wang Wei was confused and called the name of her husband Jin Delong over and over again.
Outside the operating room, Kim Delong was hovering nervously, hoping that his wife would have a smooth operation.
At 10:30 a.m., after nearly 2 and a half hours of hard work by all the medical staff, the operation was successfully completed.
After an operation, because of the high concentration of attention throughout the whole process and a race against time, Director Xia seemed to be fished out of the water, and sweat soaked her front chest and back.
Taking off the surgical gown, all the medical staff present breathed a sigh of relief.
Through everyone's cooperation and efforts, they won the race against the god of death and are well-deserved "angels in white".
Wang Wei was weak after the operation, and the severe pain caused by the caesarean section tormented her day and night.
But she couldn't wait to look at her son and stroke his little face.
Wang Wei said:
"Just let me look at the baby, I don't have any pain at all."
The "little happiness" of life and death, born peacefully, is the greatest comfort for this couple.
After three days, Wang Wei's body gradually recovered and he could hold a little happiness.
Looking at her son in her arms, Wang Wei was full of smiles, and at the moment she was the happiest woman in the world.
After Xiao Xing was born, his physical fitness was particularly good, occasionally he had a cold and fever, he took some medicine and drank some water, and rarely went to the hospital.
The little guy is very cute.
However, as the children continue to grow up, Wang Wei has ushered in new problems.
Because of excessive obesity, she was unable to take care of her young son, and has always been her husband and mother with children.
After Xiao Xing turned one year old, Wang Wei once again made up his mind to lose weight and successfully found some part-time jobs.
Husband Jin Delong took the chinese medicine massage senior certificate, worked as a masseuse in Wang Wei's weight loss institution, and did not delay taking care of the children.
A family of three is happy and happy, and Kim Delong is also satisfied:
"Now that my income is higher than before, and I have the ability to take care of my wife and son, I believe that my life will definitely get better and better in the future."
epilogue
After the story of Wang Wei's stillbirth was exposed, it attracted the blessings of countless netizens, but there was also some accusations.
Some people think that such obesity must be caused by indiscipline life and eating and drinking.
No matter what the cause of obesity is, it can be seen from Wang Wei's experience that excessive obesity is very harmful to the body, bringing many diseases and affecting normal life.
Although aesthetic diversity is now, whether thin or fat, health is the most important.
I also hope that Wang Wei can lose weight successfully as soon as possible.
