[21 Apr 2016] high fever ~ 40.4C

Today mummy works from home so that mummy can take care of you. Your body temperature still goes up and down although mummy tried to alternate between paracetamol and Ibuprofen every 3 hours as advised by the doctor.

Mummy filled a pail with water and let me soak yourself in but you refused to squat though. Mummy wondered whether this could help to bring your body temperature down since you refused to let mummy to give you a sponge bath most of the time.

Apparently you enjoyed playing water though.

After shower, you were still very active and kept playing. You were not tired or sleepy. Mummy spent quite some time with you in the room and played with you.

You like songs. Mummy had to sing for you to cheer you up so that you will stay cheerful and bubbly then maybe forget about your sickness that bothers you. Haha 

At times, mummy has to be very engrossed I work so that mummy is able to deliver the job. Your were cranky most of the time when you found mummy could not play with you but sometimes you were very patient and stay beside mummy to accompany mummy to work on computer haha

During the evening, mummy squeeze some lemon juice to the warm water and let you have a bath. Mummy was told that this will help to bring down your temperature but very sad to say that this did not work on you! Omg!

Your body temperature kept going up and down and it even reached 40.4C at about 10.45pm!!

Mummy was so worried and shocked then quickly called baba who was in living room. Mummy quickly sponge bathed you to try and bring your temperature down. You looked so tired at this time too. Baba was so angry and blamed mummy that your sickness is due to germs you picked up when mummy brought you to Malaysia to see the family. Haiz mummy did not want to argue over this at this time also since the most important thing now is mummy wants you to be well. 

Mummy reminded you to alert mummy if you happened to feel uncomfortable in the middle of the night. Please get well soon, 恩.

[22 Apr 2016] Terrifying temperature ~ 41C

It was an unforgettable day. Today at about 4.10am, mummy woke up to measure your temperature and found your body temperature had reached terrifying temperature of 41C! Mummy quickly woke baba up and told him that your body temperature was way of too high and write needed to bring your body temperature down asap or we may need to rush to hospital. Baba did not react much but got angry again and accused mummy caused you to fall sick as usual.

Mummy did not want to bother too much as there is no point to argue at this critical period. Mummy quickly filled the pail with warm water and stripped you off to soak in the water. You kept screaming and crying but mummy had to do so as this is the fastest way to bring your temperature down. Mummy also fed you the Ibuprofen then continue to sponge bathe you. Mummy wondered if all these did not help to bring your temperature down then we had to rush to hospital but luckily your body temperature dropped gradually and dropped below 39C. We were so tired by this time and mummy also told baba to bring the fever relief pad from the fridge and pasted on your forehead. You refused and struggled to first but soon you stopped struggling and had a bottle of milk then fell asleep.

We woke up in the morning at about 7.30am. You were having fever of 38.4C, mummy fed you Paracetamol and tried to bring your body temperature down. Both of us looked so tired. Mummy was very tired too as mummy still had to work from home and take care of you at the same time but so long as you are fine mummy will sustain and endure it...

Apparently after the last dosage of Paracetamol and the antibiotic mummy fed you at about 9am, you looked much better and your body temperature also dropped. You started to play and smile again. It is so good to see you be so playful again!

Then, you had your morning breakfast with some cakes. 

You looked okay even after bath but your body temperature started to pick up again at about 1.30pm. Mummy gave you another dose of Paracetamol again. Though your body temperature reached 38.9C by that time but mummy did not give you the Ibuprofen as it could be very strong and harmful. 

Mummy measured and monitored your body temperature very closely to ensure it won't shoot too high so that mummy can do whatever mummy can bring your body temperature down in case it happens.

Ya, it was tiring...but mummy will do the best to ensure you are okay! You must be okay!

After an afternoon nap, your body temperature dropped but soon picked up again at about 7.30pm. This time round it was 38.7C. Mummy quickly let you have a bath and let you soak yourself in the warm water then gave you a dose of Ibuprofen.

You started to be very energetic and playful like usual without fever about half an hour after the medication. Mummy accompanied to play in the room. At this time, mummy was so exhausted and felt the back was so painful. Mummy lied on the playmat and you played with stuffs in this room happily.

You sweated a lot after that and this shows a very good sign of kicking fever away.

Mummy tried to let you wear light as much as possible instead of wearing long sleeved pajamas. Mummy put you to sleep and told baba helped to guide you so that mummy could take a bath then worked on some company stuffs.

Your body temperature remained normal. Finally, mummy felt more releaved by now. 加油! 

[20 Apr 2016] Fever

Oh..you had a fever this morning at around 5.30am. Mummy fed you the fever medicine and flu medicine but your temperature still does not subside after about 1.5 hours! Mummy asked whether baba could apply a day off today to stay at home with you since mama had a scheduled meeting and not able to apply leave in the last minute.

Mummy was worried so much and kept calling baba and reminded him to feed you medicine on time. Unfortunately your body temperature seemed to go up and down even after 2 dosage of paracetamol. Mummy quickly called the clinic nearby up and told baba to bring you to see doctor.

Baba brought you to see Dr. Koo at Temasek Medical Clinic and you were prescribed with Ibuprofen, antibiotic, flu and sore throat medicine.

Mummy requested to work from home tomorrow and on Friday and this triggered mummy's boss to be quite passed off since it is the busiest period now and he was wondering that mummy could not work effectively at home. After some discussion with mummy's boss, he knew mummy would apply annual leave even if mummy could not work from home then he gave in after mummy committed to complete some specific job within the next few days. It would definitely be very taxing to mummy to complete these jobs but mummy does not have any other way to convince him to allow mummy to stay at home to take care of you.

When mummy reached home, you seemed to be quite okay. Baba said you were OK in the afternoon too and kept sleeping but mummy found your body temperature tend to be very unstable also...

Oh no..恩, don't be sick! 

[19 Apr 2016] another minor step @new childcare ~ sat on floor and read while waiting for mummy

Yeah!!! Mummy reached the centerror to pick you up as usual and was so glad that your were sitting on the floor to read by yourself instead of clinging to teachers! When you saw mummy you were so happy and quickly stood up and kept the book back to the bookshelf! Wow mummy was so happy to see that you are progressing and adapting well! 加油，恩恩! 

[18 Apr 2016] Missed pacifier?!

Today after we were home from your school, you kept telling mummy that you want '句句' (Pacifier)! Haha omg had you been missing your pacifier so much for the one whole day??? Haha

You suck your pacifier while playing in the study room.

Today you looked so tired and wanted to go to the bedroom earlier for story time. Mummy did not even have chance to take a shower yet since baba was not home yet too.

Rest well, baby!

[16 Apr 2016] dinner with 阿公阿婆after long long time

Today is a Saturday. Mummy planned to go for dinner with 阿公阿婆 and the rest of the families. It has been long time since we last had dinner with everyone.

Mummy purposely booked the train ticket for the late afternoon slot at 4.30pm so that baba will not vent his anger to mummy if he were to complain that we come home so late :( mummy also booked the return tickets so that we can catch the train at 10.15 pm

It was very rush and tight schedule for mummy to catch up with everyone for such rushed schedule. The train was slightly delayed as usual then when we reached JB baba wanted to go for snack in shopping center first as it was raining. We only left the shopping center at about 5.45pm. We took a taxi at about 6.30pm and you were exceptionally cranky while we were on our way! You did not want to sit properly and kept screaming. You must be feeling vexed due to the traffic jam during peak hour. When you were a little calmed, you played and put your mouth on the seat...haiz baba was so angry when you threw tantrum and mummy was being blamed again. Sobz sobz..sometimes mummy really feels so 委屈 whenever mummy wants to go and see family in Malaysia and baba purposely make mummy's life hard.恩, bear in mind, please find a guy who really 心甘情愿 to love and accompany you unconditionally all the time or you will end up be so 委屈 like mummy :( 

By the time we reached 2姨''s place, it was already 7.30pm. You were so happy when you saw 阿公阿婆  ! You screamed in excitement when 阿公carried you. 阿婆quickly fed you with some porridge as she was worried that you were starved. 

After finished up a bowl of porridge, you were so happy to play together with 俊豪 gor gor

We left 2姨's place for dinner at about 8pm then had very quick dinner with everyone then we needed to prepare to go at 9.15 pm. 3姨姨丈 drove us to train station.....

Haiz...来也匆匆，去也匆匆! :(

Mummy appreciate it so much that you are mummy's best companion! 

加油， mummy!

[17 Apr 2016] your first pudding ~ grape flavoured

Today is a Sunday. You woke up early to have milk as usual then refused to sleep. 

Mummy could not sleep too since you wanted to play with mummy. Hush Hush! Haha

Mummy cooked rice with chopped carrots, spinach and minced pork for you today. Now you seemed to prefer rice more than porridge. You enjoyed self-feeding too although most of the time it will end up a mess but that is...okay! Hahaha

New Minnie mouse rompers from 5姨

Yummy yummy

Baba woke up at about 11am then we went to Sushi Express for lunch.  

Today you had your first pudding! Yummy!

You really seemed to like it so much and even finished the whole pudding by yourself! Wow

Then, mummy also allowed you to try some raspberries cheese cake but you did not like it though haha

We finished our meal then off to 爷爷奶奶家 and back to our home again at night.
