High School Bridal Romance
Advice from the Doctor

There were at least two things that made Mira anxious. The first is a jump in body weight during pregnancy to touch the figure of 20 kilograms, and the second is a spike in blood pressure. Of the two statements above that make Mira more anxious is the increase in blood pressure.

Elkan was also worried not playing. They both have read that childbirth when high blood pressure is very risky. The risk can be experienced by pregnant women and their fetuses, one of the risks for the fetus is that the fetus can be born prematurely. Instantly, Mira herself felt so anxious.

"Do not think Nak Mira .. we first check the condition of the fetus well," said Dr. Indri.

Mira was helped by Elkan to climb the gurney, until finally there was a nurse who helped to uncover the clothes worn by Mira in the abdominal area. Then, USG Gell began to be given there. Indri doctors are also preparing to check the condition of Mira's fetus.

"Alright, we'll monitor the condition of the fetus. Now Nak Mira's gestational age is at 38 and 39 weeks. Well, look at this, the two babies face each other. That's funny, isn't it?"

Doctor Indri said so to divert Mira's anxiety. Finally, Mira could smile. He did not expect also in the womb of two babies can face each other like that. What Mira hopes is that her two babies can be strong and healthy until launching later.

"For the baby's weight. It's normal, son Mira. They are almost 2.5 kilograms each. Not classified as premature and underweight well. Usually the baby born prematurely was born with a weight of less than 2.2 kilograms," explained Dr. Indri again.

"Alhamdulillah" replied Mira.

"This is just an estimate well.. later the time of birth can be weighed new weight. Usually will not be far away from this USG examination. Can fit 2.5 kilograms, can also be less than 2.5 kilograms. I see," said Dr. Indri.

Hearing the baby Twins in good shape and having a normal weight makes Mira and Elkan calmer and relieved. Doctor Indri is also calm can make Mira become a little more relaxed.

"What time did you last eat?" ask Dr. Indri now.

"Just now, Doctor ... at 13:00 p.m.," replied Mira.

"If you last drank it?" ask Dr. Indri again.

"Sama, it's lunchtime Doctor."

Well, after listening to the question from Doctor Indri this makes Mira feel bad. When the doctor asked when the last time eating and drinking made Mira think. Although Indri's face was still smiling, but the question was not a question that explained the good condition of the body.

"Look, Nak Mira .. I need to say yes. Your blood pressure is very high. 170 for your blood pressure and this includes high. If left unchecked, it can risk disconnecting the placenta from the uterus in an improper way.

Indri doctors finally have to convey this bad news. However, Mira and Elkan will prepare for the conditions that could happen. Moreover, Mira's blood pressure is rated high. Doctor Indri thought that Mira experienced fatigue and stress that was not managed properly. High blood pressure in mothers who want to give birth is very risky to disconnect the placenta from the uterus in an improper way. This can cause heavy bleeding during labor. It's very dangerous. It can even cause the death of the mother and fetus.

"Son Mira's not ready for Caesar's surgery tomorrow morning?" ask Dr. Indri.

This is a really thrilling advice for Mira. Initially both came for regular checkups only, and now Doctor Indri asked for a Caesarean tomorrow morning.

"If you're ready, tonight's last meal, I'll give you medicine to lower your blood pressure a little. Keep going to sleep. Tomorrow morning, we do the surgery," said Dr. Indri.

"Yes, so tonight we're going to hospital. Later her husband can go home and pick up maternity supplies. To reduce the risk alone, Nak Mira," said Dr. Indri.

"The baby's only 38/39 weeks old. Is that premature, Doctor?" ask Mira again.

"Nope .. at this age, the baby can breathe with his lungs and can adapt to life outside the womb. Safe really," explained Dr. Indri.

Not immediately agreed, Mira discussed with her husband first. However, Mira wants to involve Elkan and this decision is an official joint decision. Mira was sure that Elkan was also listening to everything, Elkan must have his own considerations as well.

"How Brother?" ask Mira.

Elkan then asked Indri Doctor first. "Safe for mom and baby no, Doctor?"

"Me and the medical team will try. Just consider his mother's blood pressure. So that there is no risk to the two babies in the womb," replied Dr. Indri.

Elkan then asked Mira. "Where, Honey? You want?" tanyakanya.

"I'm scared, sister," replied Mira.

Human response when having a caesarean section suddenly. Preparation is not yet, but must face it in a matter of hours.

"I will always accompany you" replied Elkan. It is Elkan's promise that he will accompany Mira. Won't leave Mira for a second.

"Our equipment?" ask Mira.

"I can ask for help Mama, Papa, or Brother Evan. Focus on our current condition. Go to labor first," reply Elkan.

A few minutes Mira was silent, as she was also doubtful and indecisive. But now Mira is speaking. "OK .. I'm willing and ready for surgery as long as the Twins are okay" Mira said.

"You should also be fine, Honey," Elkan said with a look on his wife's face.

The doctor nodded his head. "alright. Later her husband Nak Mira takes care of the administration and moves to the inpatient room well. We'll have dinner soon, we'll have medicine, and we'll have surgery tomorrow morning. Blood readiness will also be checked to the Hospital blood bank," said Dr. Indri.

Not only high blood pressure, but when helping the delivery of mothers who give birth to twins can occur severe bleeding during childbirth, for that Doctor does have to prepare a blood bag for blood transfusion. For this reason, Mira had to tell her blood type.

This is a very exciting and bad advice. However, the two would attempt to pass through together. In addition, Elkan would take on more roles to appease his wife.
