Giving Birth in China | American Mom and Chinese Dad | Mixed baby

The plant is pretty wet now.

That's enough water.

My God

Oh, my God.

The first child may be born after the due date.

But most people will be earlier than this.

The APP calculated the due date.

So we were worried.

Finally, the contraction

time showed us it was time to go to the hospital.

There is something called 'panda blood'.

'Panda Blood' is very rare in China.

You might only find people with this in the northern or western parts of China.

For example, places like Xinjiang or Tibet.

Also other people who have this blood type are more commonly found in European countries

For western countries,

It is also a little rare there, too!

But not as rare as it is in China.

So if you need blood in an American hospital, you can easily get it.

In China,

you have to talk to the hospital in advance to make sure they have supplies of the blood in case a transfusion is needed.

You should do it at least one month in advance.

It's pretty hard to get this blood type from the blood bank in China.

Brittany actually had to donate her own blood to herself in order to have a back up supply of her blood type.

If Brittany didn't take the Rhogam shot, the second baby could have problems where her body would attack the baby.

Rhogam is very hard to get in China.

You have to purchase it out of the mainland.

So the whole process is quite difficult.

It's a pain in the butt.

Hopefully mainland China can carry this medicine soon so others won't have to go through this.

Even though not many people need this, a few do.

But we have a large base number , so still a problem need to solve in the future.

I was super tired after not sleeping all night, but I couldn't compare to the condition you were in.

Because you couldn't sleep

and also were in pain.

So it was definitely worse.

I hope this won't take that long.

I really hope so.

Then you won't have to suffer for that long.
