On April 15, at 8:34 a.m., accompanied by a cry of "Wow—", a new life was born, a boy with a length of 52 centimeters and a weight of 3850 grams. Just like when his mother was born, his birth was equally remarkable - because his mother was zheng Mengzhu, the first IVF baby in the mainland, yes, the one you saw in the biology book! It is worth saying that Zheng Mengzhu later became a staff member of the Reproductive Medicine Center, she said, "Others helped our family at the beginning, and now I can help others again, which is also a kind of inheritance." It is true that man cannot live forever, this is the law of nature, but our wealth, wisdom, and spirit can be passed on to the next generation, and this is the inheritance. It is the endless generations of people that have made today's human civilization and will continue to do so.
The inheritance of love, the continuation of life
This reminds me of a movie "No Questions Asked", I believe many sisters have also seen, the whole movie has a total of 4 generations, 4 stories, spanning a century of echoes. During the Republic of China period, Wu Linglan found his true self in confusion, his student Shen Guangyao threw pen from Rong during the War of Resistance Against Japan, drove a fighter plane to deliver food to orphans, and finally sacrificed his life for the country, one of the orphans named Chen Peng grew up to participate in the research of two bombs and one star, and was inspired by his spirit Li Wanted to sacrifice his life for righteousness and save the lives of a couple.
Time comes to the new century, the child of the couple who was rescued, that is, Zhang Guoguo in the last story, he is an executive of an advertising company, in his work, there are intrigues, there are deceitful, but he also has a childlike heart and a sincerity in his heart. He did his best to donate to the couple who gave birth to quadruplets but could not support them, so that these four new lives could thrive, and it was because of the inheritance of love that this life could be extended.
And the last monologue of Zhang Guoguo in the baby room also conveys another spirit to us: "Listen to your heart, ask no questions."
What you see and hear often frustrates you.
The world is so powerful, so powerful that it gives rise to the thought of changing them.
However, if you have the opportunity to understand your life in advance, and know that youth is only these days, I don't know if you will still care about the things that the world wants you to care about.
For example, how much is more glorious, and what can be loved.
When you grow up, you will rejoice because the green shoots have emerged from the land, you will cheer and jump at the rising sun, and you will give kindness and warmth to others.
But while praising other lives, they often forget their own preciousness, even forever.
May you remember your preciousness when you are struck, and resist malice; may you firmly believe in your preciousness when you are confused.
Love what you love, do what you do, listen to your heart, and ask no questions.
Only it is difficult, so precious, listen to your heart, no questions asked
At the beginning of the birth of IVF, many people were prejudiced against it, and even once demonized in some areas, although it is now 9102 years old, but this situation has not completely disappeared. I believe that some couples who are ready to do IVF will also have such worries, unwilling to talk about IVF with colleagues and relatives, afraid that they will be worried about the sky, and feel that IVF violates the laws of nature. We are afraid that others know that we are "infertile", afraid that the thing we are going to do will end up as a failure, afraid that others will know that there is actually a heart of suffering under their beautiful appearance, but is this really that important?
I once read the ivy mother's pregnancy diary written by a mother, the protagonist told his own IVF journey, as well as the story of the "comrades-in-arms" who met on this road, they were of different ages, different jobs, different backgrounds, but they all faced the same problems and chose the same path. From making a decision, checking, retrieving the eggs, to getting pregnant in October and finally giving birth to the baby, it's a long and thrilling process. They chose this path for different reasons, their different moods, and their endings. In this difficult encounter, some people insisted on marriage, some people suffered a breakup, some people were worried and scared, some people achieved it in one fell swoop, some people lost many battles, the only thing that was the same was that they were all brave mothers, and they all exuded the glory of motherhood.
In the end, after the heroine left her job, did test tubes, divorced, and then did test tubes, and remarried all kinds of difficulties and obstacles, she finally gave birth to two small babies as she wished, and they are growing up healthily, and the whole book ends with 2 babies and mothers in dialogue:
(Swipe up to see content)
One day the two children chatted, and the younger brother asked the older brother: "Brother, what do you love?" ”
I sorted out my belongings next to me and listened quietly, thinking in my heart that my brother would say watermelon, lollipops, super flying man and the like.
The brother replied without thinking at all: "I love my mother." His voice was loud and firm.
At this time, the younger brother held out a thumb and nodded his thumb in front of his brother's forehead, saying loudly: "Brother, you are awesome!" ”
I smiled softly.
The children were immersed in the joy of chatting while building up the logs, completely ignoring the radiance emanating from their mother's face three meters away from them.
One day, I led two children to read a picture book about the relationship between hens and eggs, telling them that eggs were born from the belly of hens.
My brother asked, "Mom, where did I get born?" ”
I said, "You and your brother were born out of your mother's belly." "In order to give them a more straightforward understanding, I exposed the caesarean section scar left on my stomach to show them.
When the younger brother saw it, he burst into tears in an instant: "Mom, are you in pain?" ”
I was a little touched by my brother's sudden tears, and gently touched his little face and said, "It really hurt when I gave birth to you, and my mother shed a lot of blood at that time." ”
My brother listened, gently caressed his little hand on my wound, then blew a soft breath toward the wound and said, "My mother is such a brave mother."
Only it is difficult, so precious, whether you are hesitating at this moment about whether to have a child or not, whether you are experiencing various painful examinations and treatments in the IVF cycle or experiencing various discomforts caused by pregnancy, or are worrying about some other things, but please cherish what you have now, try to take every step of the present, imagine that one day in the future, there will be a pink-carved child who says that his favorite is his mother, There will be an elf-like child who caresses your wounds and sheds tears of pain, and you will feel that all the efforts at this moment are worth it. Our life membership is passed down in this way, in the most intimate and gentle way.
