Pneumonia.. shoo go away!!!

Pneumonia...
a terrible experience that we've gone through

A Bad year for us to begin with..
Coz we all fell sick including lil Hebe having her 1st cough

Daddy has been coughing since early Dec last year ..
Next, I am down with running nose, cough & been to 2 different GPs for medications. Mummy is the 3rd to fall sick recently on 1st Jan, has ore thraot and bad flu.. Last to befall is poor lil Hebe who got her 1st cough on 6 Jan.

Mummy went to see doc with Daddy on 4 Jan evening ...
Next day, she was having fever from afternoon onwards and throughout the next 5 days. The fever comes and go.. leaving her weaker as days pass by. Daddy brought her back to consult the same GP for 2 more visits.. on her 3rd visit (9 Jan), the GP suspected that Mummy may has some chest infection and advised Daddy to send her to hospital for immediate treatment.

They went to Tan Tock Seng Hospital and Mummy still running high fever (39.9 degree) & finally diagnoised that she is down with Pneumonia & need to be admitted immediately for treatment. On the very same night, Daddy also brought both me and Hebe to KK hospital for a thorough check up as we are still having cough. Luckily, we three of us including Daddy is fine, just need to be on medication to recover from our cough.

Mummy is finally discharged from hospital yesterday (14 Jan), a 6 day hospital stay. The reason she caught this virus is that her body is weaker than us as she just delivered Hebe. At the moment, Doc advised her to avoid crowded places.

During her sickness, she do not have sufficient milk to express as she was too weak. Moreover, during her hospital stay she can only express the bm and dump away due to the strong medication. Luckily, freezer has over 50 packs of bm for Hebe during this period. However, she is a good drinker and has used up nearly all ... now we wonder how Mummy can replenish the stock since next wed we are going away for our holidays!

Shooo Shoo...the terrible pneumonia..
pls dun come back to us or Mummy again!!!

Updates on my fever

Good news!!!

My fever finally gone down on last Sunday, 19 Jul.
However, my face becomes bloated and bits & bits rashes start to appear.
The very next day, my face and body all broke out in pinkish rashes.
Mummy used California Calendula cream to apply my face and whole body. Luckily, my rashes start to heal and 'disappear' by Wednesday night. So for the past whole week, I was recovering at home with Mama's help. Did not attend the childcare that week as my body & appetite is still weak. What a dreadful fever I had gone through.. now I'm back to my bright and cheerful self!!!

High Fever!!!

Oh NO!!!
I'm sick again & down with high fever !
My fever started on last Wednesday, 15 July in the middle of early morn around 5am. My temperature at that time was 39.5 degree.

My parents fed me with Paracetamol and by the time they left for work, my temperature has reduced to 37.5 degree. Mama's task that day is to monitor my temperature and if it did rose again, she will bring me to see Dr Lee.

However, I remained active that day even till my parents came back from work. So they thought I was OK then. But that fateful night on 16 July, 4am morn, my mummy was awoke by my hot burning body. My temperature at that point of time was 39.5 - 40 degree again. They quickly fed me with Paracetamol again and dressed me up, took me to Chong Pang where there is a 24hr clinic to see doc. By the time, we reached the clinic.. the time was about 4.50am and by the time we came home it was 5.30am. They quickly fed me the new medication and then we slept together. My poor parents dragged themselves out from bed at 7am and then dressed for work again.

Mama called my mummy at work in few hours later, saying that my temperature shoot up to 38.5 degree. I kept crying for them to come home to accompany me. My mummy immediately took half day cc leave, to monitor me. After my pm nap, my temp rose to 40.26 degree.. and mummy called up clinic to check and continue to feed me my medication. That night my fever still did not go away, it was rose to 39.7 degree again in the wee morn. My parents totally exhausted and decided to take childcare leave that day to monitor my condition. I remained active on that fri morn but when I awoke from my pm nap, my fever seem to rise again. That evening, my parents together with mama took me to KK's A & E for consultation. The doc told them that I might caught viral fever and may took up to 4-6 days for me to recover from the fever. Luckily, I no need to be admitted to hospital.

Sigh... hope to recover from this dreadful fever soon.
My appetitie is very poor during last few days...

this is the Fever pad that Mummy got it for me on 16 July after her 1/2 day work. My ever first time using the pad.. and I keep resist wearing it after a struggle battle with my poor mummy.

P/S: I've successfully weaned off from thumb sucking and only occassionally, I will forgot and put my thumb in my mouth to suck during deep sleep.

My 1st Haircut Experience @ Salon

Dear all,
I'm still recovering from my stomach flu..
Have not been drinking a drop of my fav milk since last Fri to Sunday.
Ever since I''m been kena attacked by this virus, I been acting very moody and upset over lil things easily with no reason. I know all this is driving my parents crazy and they are also trying their best to cope with my mood swings during this diffcult period. Mummy also running out of ideas to cook yummy food due to my loss of appetite. No matter how nice the meal looks or taste, I can only ate half of the portion. Moreover, such a big reduce in my milk intake, greatly upset my doting mummy. I must have lost few grams of weight then...

Luckily, yesterday I start to ask for cold fresh milk and only will drink it from cup. I been drinking some today too. Think this is a good start.. at least better than none. I can hold my cup pretty well and drink without much 'accident'.


Anyway back to the topic of this posting..
22nd Dec 2008
Mummy brought me to a hair salon at Sun Plaza for my 1st haircut experience..
It turns out a terrible one indeed.. OMG!

I settled happily on the chair, waiting for my stylist to trim my hair. The nightmare begins when he start draping over a long clothe all over me.. I start to cry non stop with tears dripping endlessly, Mummy keep soothing me and talking to me. But I cant seem to stop tearing and listen to her. Luckily, the person manage to finish my cut like 10mins. We cannot say the same for my poor Mummy trying to maintain her sanity while I'm like destroying her ear drum. Overall, she did survive being calm and firm with me and I really must salute her. Haa..

Verdict : the haircut cost $8 but dun think the stylist has done a good job on my hairdo. Maybe will try elsewhere the next time. Any good recommendation???

P/S: to reward me for 'çrying' so long, Mummy brought me a cup of honeydew soya milk shake and a soya cheese cake to share. ^_^

Godma Flo saves the day again!

Just a short post to keep Daddy well informed.

.. I slept from last night 8pm all the way till this morn, 7am and nudged Mummy for milk milk. She made 150ml milk but I left till 50ml cant finish. We lazed in bed for another 30 mins, Mummy then turned and look at me that to tell me that today we no school.

I then started chanting "school, SCHOOL". I must enjoy so much going to school as my eyes sparkle with joy. Though Mummy is very tired & weak, looking at my joy she cant stand the heart to reject me. She checked me again, to ensure I not running any fever, no running nose as I cannot go to school unwell, infecting my other classmates. After many interval checks, she gives me the OK signal for school, next she called Godma Flo's help again to accompany me during my class. My Mummy is still feeling unwell, coughing & cant sit in the class & putting my classmates at risk.

Godma Flo met us at Bishan station, hopping onto the same train as us. Accordingly Godma, I did behaved good during class with her company. Mummy been waiting for us outside the classroom & anxiously as she worried I may cry for her or makes things diffcult for Godma. I & Godma even posed during our class photo session. We had lunch at Mcdonald Forum as out there raining heavily and Godma even sent us back home together.

Once again, we need to give a BIG HUGS to dear GODMA FLO for saving the DAY again!

P/S: I was now at Mama's place tonight again & I promise to be good and sleep there tonight. Hope I keep my promise to Mummy! My milk intake also have been reduced a lot too.. I cant even seem to finish 150ml or even 100ml of milk, always leaving some behind in bottle. Hope this is just a passing phrase again!

Down with Fever Virus!

Day 1, 14th Oct..
Mummy woke up with a heavy head, body aching all over & sore throat. She turned over and look at her hp & time is already 9.10am. Usually I''m the 1st one to wake her up for my milk. I was lying face down beside her. She nudged me and realised my chest and head was burning hot. She immediately woke me up but I still couldn't pull myself up. She telephoned Mama to come over to help out. We went to see our Doc Lee shortly.. actually both Mummy & I were down with fever, temp 38.7 & 38.8 degree. My Mama & Gong-Gong came over again in evening 7pm, to fetch me to their place to stay overnight so Mummy can rest. But around 4am in the morning the next day, they brought me to comfort of my home as I been crying whole night, refusing to stay at their place. They went home then to rest...

Day 2, 15th Oct..
around 6 plus in morning, Mummy measured my temp and realised it shook up to 39.8. She immediately feed me my medic and almost broke down, on the verge to rush me to KK. She cant get hold of Daddy and so she called Godma Flo for advice. My dear Godma Flo even rushed down shortly to check on us. By 10am plus, my fever is back to 38 degree while Mummy's turn to feel feverish. Godma even came back in evening with dinner for us, accompanied us to the clinic again as we were both declared running high fever, 39.7 & 39.8 degree. Poor me.. I din even drank any of my milk and food during the 1st 2 days. I sipped a bit of juice and water only as my throat pained too.

Day 3, 16th Oct..
Our fever finally gone down..
I started to ask for milk and start to drink & eat a bit...
Mummy started to cough and throat very pain. Most of the time, she is still the main caregiver to me, preparing my meals while she no appetite to eat, just munch some bread and water. Mama came by later morn for 2.5 hrs and then evening together with Gong Gong, visited us for another 1 hr.

Day 4, 17th Oct...
I started to drink as much though each feed is like 150ml & definitely felt much better. However, I been making Mummy upset by being naughty. She is on the verge of losing her voice when I dun listen to her reasonings. In the end, my buttock got slapped by her few times today. Today, nobody visits us.. and we are home alone like 2 poor lil souls. Today is Gong-Gong birthday! But we cant join in the celebration. Mummy took me to Mos Burger for her dinner, a sweet corn soup and buns. I behaved badly then & on the way, I keep crying to carry. Mummy already no strength and yet I keep on whinning. She asked me not to suck my thumb since my hands touched the floor earlier on but I refused. I really whinned loudly during the road crossing and till our home. Shame ! Shame!

Day 5, 18th Oct...
Initially, Mummy thought of bringing me out somwhere to meet Godma Flo to breathe some fresh air. But I keep sneezing in the morn & this got her worried that I may got the flu bug from her. Mummy also started feeling weak & giddy, been coughing badly too. Mama & Gong Gong went kai kai and there is no one can help to bbsit me. Luckily, kind Godma came over with lunch for Mummy & help to entertain me the rest of the afternoon till evening when she tucked me to bed...

We wish.. we wish we've a speedy recovery soon!
Many thanks to my dear Godma Flo's help.

P/S: Looks like tomor we are not going to my JG class in our current state. We are going to miss it since tomor is a photo taking session. Sigh! Guess the next graduation photo this time, will lack of my cheeky look.
