Synopsis: When fate dealt a couple its heaviest blow, they greeted the warmest dawn with love and perseverance. Xie An and Jiang Yu were a sweet couple. Just as Xie An was joyfully preparing to share the news of his wife's pregnancy, a phone call from the hospital plunged him from heaven to hell—Jiang Yu had been in a car accident and fell into a coma. For the next few months, Xie An single-handedly shouldered the burden of both their lives. With his belly growing ever larger, he went to prenatal checkups alone, listened to the baby's heartbeat alone, and prepared clothes for the baby all by himself. Every day, he clumsily washed and turned his bedridden wife, rambling on about every change in the baby, waiting for the response that might never come. Until Jiang Yu finally awoke, the couple truly began to face the most difficult hurdle together—childbirth. However, the baby seemed to have inherited his mother's "slow" genes. Three days past the due date, the amniotic fluid continued to decrease, and the doctor gave an ultimatum: labor had to be induced. First, a water bag was used for induction. A saline-filled balloon was inserted into Xie An's body, stimulating his cervix to slowly dilate. The feeling of pressure and heaviness made Xie An so uncomfortable he couldn't straighten up, but what terrified him even more was the touch of unfamiliar medical staff. Ultimately, only Jiang Yu performed the entire procedure for him—his lover's hand became his only source of comfort. However, the balloon's effect was limited, and the contractions remained weak. For the baby's safety, they had no choice but to accept oxytocin. The moment the medication took effect, intense contractions surged like a tidal wave, each wave stronger than the last. Xie An trembled all over, gasping for breath, yet he held tightly to Jiang Yu's hand. Only their breathing could be heard in the delivery room. Jiang Yu held him tightly from behind, counting "one, two, three" in his ear. Xie An gritted his teeth, using all his strength each time. In the darkest hour of oxytocin, excruciating pain, and tears, could they use each other's hands to welcome their dawn? #givingbirth #malepregnancy
