Only Raised Children
110. Pleasure In Pregnancy Alina
The next day according to what he said last night, this morning Santi will accompany his daughter-in-law to go to the hospital. The middle-aged woman looked very excited, even in the morning she had asked her husband's driver to heat the car so that it could be used immediately if Alina was ready.
Not only eager to go to the hospital, breakfast this morning was Santi look more chatty to his employees. He asks the cooks who cook in his kitchen to make healthy food for Alina. Santi is very concerned about the health of the mother of his future grandchildren.
Even Irfan was made a whimper by his wife's excessive behavior. He could not prevent the excessive spirit because he did not want to damage the mood of his wife who was happy.
When the breakfast was finished, Santi and Irfan sat down at the table. If usually they will start breakfast first, but this time Santi was forced to postpone eating to wait for the child and his daughter-in-law who is currently still in the room.
"Darling, when are we going to wait for them? Soon I have to go to the office" Irfan told his wife
It had been almost 10 minutes they waited, but Alina and Rico had not yet come down from their room. He who had to go to the office this morning was made wrong by his wife, but to start first he could not because it had become their habit to eat together.
"Patience, Pa. Bu Ipah called them. Maybe Alina's still getting ready right now, we're going to go to the hospital after breakfast.
Irfan sighed again, again he had to be patient waiting for the arrival of their breakfast time which somehow had to wait for how many minutes. But not a minute his wife said, look Alina and Rico who came down from the stairs with neat clothes. It seems true what his wife, Alina and Rico said was late because they were preparing to go to the hospital with their mother after breakfast.
"Well, it's them" said Santi with a radiant face, as if looking at the golden gem that was walking towards him.
As soon as Alina of Rico arrived at the dinner table, they immediately sat her body there, exactly opposite their parents.
"Darling, what do you want to eat? Mama asked the chef to cook healthy food for you. Is there salmon, catfish, or chicken soup?" santi asked excitedly.
Seeing the spirit of his mother is so great, Rico and Alina looked at each other.
"Mama why? Tumben really excited today," said Rico with his hermit.
"Why indeed? Mama can not be excited to have breakfast with the child and daughter-in-law of this beloved Mama," said Santi.
Rico scratched his neck not itchy.
"Not wrong, Ma. It's just weird" Rico said in a low voice.
"Your mom was too excited about Alina's pregnancy. Don't ignore it, let's eat, Papa's been hungry since. There was a meeting at the office this morning" Irfan said later.
Rico and Alina who just realized that from the words of her father can only smile amusedly. It turned out to be what made his mother so excited this morning.
Throughout enjoying his breakfast that morning, Santi's spirit smile never faded a bit. In fact, he was very effective at serving his son-in-law, such as taking food for Alina into a plate and offering various other foods to his daughter-in-law.
No one dared to forbid what the middle-aged woman was doing, let alone what Santi was doing was all positive. They were just enjoying the woman's happiness on this sunny morning. Moreover, Alina who really enjoyed the ten-star friendly service from her mother-in-law.

After finishing his breakfast, Santi, Rico and Alina immediately went to the hospital in the city. Since last night Santi had given an appointment to one of the obgyn doctors there and when they arrived there, they went straight to the doctor's room Siska without having to queue like other patients.
Again Santi is most excited to see the results of the doctor's examination, even when Alina doing USG Santi's eyes look so sparkling looking at the monitor screen there.
"Tok, so when can we find out her gender?" santi asked who was really impatient to know the gender of her grandson.
Everyone was there holding back his laughter hearing Santi's question. Santi asked as if a layman did not understand it, when things like this he should know even though he did not have a will. Yet no one dared to laugh out loud in front of the middle-aged woman, they simply held her back and answered that question with the answer a doctor should have given her patients.
After finding out if the gender of her granddaughter can only be known at the age of 6 months of pregnancy, Santi sighed, feeling disappointed because he could not find out in the near future.
"It's still a long time. One month has not been, let alone 6 months," Santi murmured quietly, but could still be heard by everyone in the room.
"It's still a long time, Ma. My mother is patient. We just enjoy the process, later it will not feel really suddenly six months," said Rico and immediately justified by Alina and the doctor who was there.
Santi sighed again, it seemed like he had to be patient to wait for the six months. Em, no, not six months, but eight months to be exact. He was not only curious about the gender of his granddaughter, but he was also impatient to wait for the arrival of his grandson to this world and he needed approximately eight more months to wait for that day to arrive.
This morning Zara was supposed to go to the hospital with her son and daughter-in-law to see the results of the doctor's examination of her child's pregnancy, but because this morning suddenly a close friend of Thomas who had not seen a visit to his house for a long time, she was forced to accompany her husband at home to welcome his guests. Actually Zara was very eager to leave her guest and accompany her son who would check her pregnancy, but she could not be as selfish as it was to leave her husband alone at home. After all, it was not just today that Alina went to the hospital to check on her pregnancy and maybe next time she would accompany her daughter to the hospital.
"Sweetie, I'm so sorry that you can't come to the hospital. Papa's old friend suddenly came to the house this morning. Mama can't leave Papa alone at home with her guests" Zara said across the street.
"Yes, it's okay, Ma. There is Mama Santi and Mas Rico who accompany Alina to the hospital. After all there was still another chance for Mama to accompany Alina to the hospital."
Zara smiled with relief upon hearing her daughter's words. Actually he was afraid that Alina would sulk at him for not being able to accompany him to the hospital, but it turned out that his daughter could understand him and not dispute his absence.
***
One month later…
The first pregnancy that happened to Alina made the woman very overwhelmed. Unlike her sister-in-law who did not experience many complaints in her first pregnancy, in Alina's pregnancy, she actually always felt dizzy from the beginning. And in this second month, Alina began to feel morning sickness which made her body very weak. He could hardly even go to work because of his really bad condition in the morning.
Like this morning, Alina spent a lot of time in the bathroom because of her nausea that did not subside. Rico who had been accompanying his wife inside felt very sorry for her condition. He doesn't know what to do because what he's done since it hasn't made his wife any better.
the knock on the door of the room makes Rico forced to leave his wife to open the door. When the door opened, he saw the mother standing there with a worried look. Rico is no longer surprised by this situation because considering Alina's pregnancy is full of pleasure, his mother would always come to his room with a worried face if within half an hour they had not come down to start breakfast together.
"Is Alina still vomiting, Bang?" ask Santi.
"Yes, Ma. As before, it had been almost half an hour Alina was in the bathroom. Rico's so sorry for him, are we taking him to the hospital?" rico said with worry.
He really could not bear to see his wife continuously vomiting with a weak body like this. Not just one day, even almost every day he had to see his wife was helpless like this.
"Honey, not new for pregnant women experiencing morning sickness. Let Mama see yes," said Santi in a calm voice, but did not leave a worried look on his face. Learning from Zara, Santi is now slowly starting to be able to act a little calm will face Alina's pregnancy. Unlike a few weeks ago who always frenzied and raised small things.
Rico nodded his head and immediately let his mother into the room. She followed behind her mother who was walking towards the bathroom where Alina was.
From the bathroom door, she saw the mother gently rubbing the back of Alina's neck while saying something she didn't hear so clearly. Rico really felt sorry for his wife even though things like this were natural for pregnant women.
Rico the independence of his breath, seeing something like this alone he could not stand, how did he watch his wife give birth later? If she had to strip like this with Alina's pregnancy, it was better for her to forget her wish of wanting to have many children. It feels very selfish if he wants a lot of children while his wife has to suffer all day like this.

"Honey, you should take a break from work first. If your condition is still like this and forced to go to work, Mama is worried you will not focus on working. Your task will be messy and your body will also be weaker because it does not rest well" said Santi while massaging a small neck behind Alina.
Alina shook her head weakly.
"No way, Ma. Pity bang Morgan, if Alina's leave must be her work piled up."
"Gosh, Honey. Don't think about work. Now your condition is more important. Morgan's a great business candidate, that kind of job he can handle."
"But Alina does not feel good if you have to continue to bother Morgan bang, Ma," said Alina again. Because Morgan joked that he said that he was troubled because Alina went to the honeymoon yesterday, now Alina feels that she will be more troublesome because she has left work for her brother.
Because the effects of this pregnancy may also make Alina sensitive to the words Morgan should not need to think about.
"Then, later Mama asked papa to find your replacement for a while huh. If indeed you do not want to trouble your brother, Mama will ask to find a replacement who will accompany your brother in the office. At least until you no longer have complaints in your pregnancy."
Alina was silent for a moment, she thought about her in-laws words. It doesn't seem to hurt if he returns asking for leave for a few weeks to maintain his health. He should ask his brother to find a replacement during his leave so that his brother does not have trouble doing double work.
He was really unwell if he had to burden Morgan even more with his work. Although he actually knew that Morgan was only joking with his words and could handle the same job easily, especially his brother was experienced in dealing with clients while in London with his father first.

After Alina's nausea subsided, Santi invited her daughter to do breakfast immediately. Seeing Alina's weakened condition, she had to force her daughter to eat so that her stomach was not empty and made her fall ill later. All food that is not warm again heated by the waiter at home. Alina had to eat warm food, as well as drinks so as not to make her stomach nausea again.
"Darling, don't eat. Although a little, at least you have to fill your stomach. Your body will weaken if you do not eat," said Santi advising while putting some food into the plate for his daughter-in-law. While Rico only saw the scene while enjoying his breakfast in front of his wife.
