Flu, cough, running nose and light fever

sigh, see, the post's title so long....this is what hit my little Kelvin lately.
After his 3rd DPT dose, and so coincident teething decided to take place. ALL come in one shot, how can a small little baby handle so many things at once????!!!! End up, my little poor baby Kelvin is fighting with all these sickness. One lucky thing is, he still quite active and energetic.

Yday evening,Called up Dr Mary, Kelvin's Paed,asking for advise...Dr Mary advised to give paracetemol if temperature goes over 37.5 degree, and give medicine every 4 hrs.
Yday night, around 2am, i woke up and feel that Kelvin's forehead a bit warm, checked the temperature, wow, it was 37.6 degree. So without any delay, i gave him paracetemol and also uses the Bye Bye Fevel cold patch. Giving medicine is challenging as when this little boy sees the orange color medicine, he will turn his head away and shut his mouth tight. However, i have no choice, i have to close one eyes as if pretend i don't see him crying...keep feeding him the medicine and ignore his cry. Dear baby, do you know what everytime when you cry, my heart sink, i am crying together with you too :(

This morning, when i checked on Kelvin, the heat gone, but an hour later, i feel the body a bit warm again. Anyhow, me and hubby already decided to bring him to see doc.

When we were at the paed clinic, Kelvin get super excited with the toy there. He has been aiming at the plastic rocking horse since day 1. And i kept telling him that "baby, you can't sit well, so cannot play" But nowadays, he can sit quite well, so i decided to give him a try. He LOVEEESSSS it so much.



After waited for about 30 mins, Dr Mary back from "visitng" all her in house patients. Dr Mary a bit surprised when i told her Kelvin is sick, because he is so active and energetic...hahahaha...maybe this is result of fully breastfeed. **clap clap to mummy**

Our little boy had phlegm in lung and it causes the fever ...sigh. Dr Mary prescribe 4 types of medicine for Kelvin. 4 types, so many.
Paracetamol - fever
Benadryl - cough
Polaramine - Running nose
Ventolin - phlegm

While waiting for Terence to pay the bill, i brought Kelvin to the charity counter in Adventist. Kelvin very excited seeing all the toys, YES YES, my little boy will get excited when he sees lots of toys on shelf. In nursery,he used to roll himself with walker to the shelf and look at all the toys on the shelf. Cute leh.
