Sunday evening, when we were on our way out for dinner, you vomited in the car. We thought it could be you too excited after dinner, and at the same time you move around in the car while we are on our way to the restaurant. However, we are wrong.
When dinner is served, mummy gave you one small slice of carrot, and after few seconds, you throw out your dinner. The flow is like a waterfall, all out. Luckily you didn't cry, and quickly we remove you from the high chair and clean you up. Mummy thought everything is over.......After dinner, we headed back to our apt.
When we reached home, you asked for milk. Mummy gave you milk and awhile later, daddy call for help. You vomited again. Seems like this time, you throw out the cheese that you took during your afternoon tea break. Mummy called up Dr Tan, and he was attending patient and he briefly told me that lots of kids vomiting recently....and he asked me to call back n 10 mins time. Once i put down my phone, daddy call again, you vomit again. And daddy and mummy decided to bring you to hospital. Mummy called up Dr Tan and he told me he will wait for us in hospital. So nice of him!!!
While we were at the traffic light behind our house, you throw out again, all the cheese. And you throw out on my pants. Even though mummy is cheese lover, but the smell of twice processed cheese (thrown out cheese) is not as nice as the normal processed cheese. Daddy also call up Ah Kong to bring some of your clothing to meet us at Adventist. When we almost reached Adventist, i gave your ped, Dr Tan, a call and he told me he's waiting for us at ER. Mummy feel so relief after hearing that he's waiting for us at ER. So quickly we parked our car outside the ER entrance and bring you into ER. Basically you just look tired but still quite energetic as you show mummy that you want to come down and walk by yourself. As you are not wearing your shoes, so mummy dare not let you walk.
When Dr Tan checked on you, you make lots of noise, maybe you still remember he is the one who send you for nebuliser and he's the one always poke on your bum bum, so everytime when Dr Tan touches you, you will scream.....Dr Tan checked and make sure you are not dehydrated. And he wrote down some notes for mummy, what to eat, what to do........and also taught mummy how to check whether you are dehydrated or not. Dr Tan said previously people will associate vomit and diarrhea as food poisoning but the recent study showed that it's not food poisoning. It is caused by airborne virus. Gosh!!!
While mummy continue to get more info from Dr Tan, daddy carry you out from the ER to meet with Ah Kong and Ah Ma. When you saw them, you stopped crying and show your excitement. Mummy has to call you into ER again as i need to put suppository for you to stop the vomit. The nurse on duty helped mummy to do it then we proceed to the cashier counter for payment. Since the normal cashier counter is closed, thus, mummy being asked to make payment at the admission counter. And again, you behave very active, while mummy doing payment, you asked ah Ma to bring you to sit beside me and start playing with my purse and even "talk" to the on duty lady. Then, we headed back home.
On our way home, you decided that you want the entire back seat, you lie on the seat and poor mummy has only a small little space to sit. You keep showing mummy "sleeping" position and you even make the snoring sounds , telling us you are sleeping. Cheeky boy!
When we got home, you drank 2 oz of water and daddy afraid you may vomit again, and luckily you didn't. So we waited for a while before we fed you the anti-vomit medicine. After the medicine, mummy gave you 1 oz of milk and of course, it's not enough for you, you make lots of noise, so we gave a bit more. While you are taking your milk, mummy quickly take shower as you vomited on me on our way to hospital, i smell like parmesan cheese. You drank a bit then turn left right on the bed. Your eye lips barely can open, but you just refuse to sleep. You refuse to sleep and keep wanted to come out from the room. Daddy and mummy need to sleep beside you, keep telling you that WE will sleep together..and after a while, finally, you close your eyes and go to your lala-land. You sleep thru the whole nite and only wake up around 6:30am.
Mummy know you are hungry as you keep turn around and keep kicking mummy, then daddy decided to give you some milk, and of course we do expect something will happen after you took the milk. True enough, you throw out all the milk, but then, this doesn't stop you from asking for food. Then later, you pointed on the table and said "mum mum". So mummy fed you some bread. About 15 mins, all of the bread comes out in small pieces. Daddy dropped mummy and you to Ah Kong's house.
You look tired but still quite cheeky. You gave everyone the best smile, we know that you try very hard to give all of us a big smile. Mummy fed you the anti-vomit medicine and let you take a short nap. Ee Poh cooked plain porridge for you. And i would like to thank aunty Wooi Sin and Sheoh Yan for their advise and support. Thanks dear, for the advise and support, appreciate it so much! After you wake up from the nap, you start asking for food, and mummy fed you some 100 plus, follow by the wind medicine. A while later, i gave you some porridge and rice water...and of course, a few spoon feed of porridge won't satisfy you, you make more and more noise, but i dare not give you too much food, afraid your stomach cannot take it. After 15 mins, you show hungry sign and ah Ma gave you few spoon feed of porridge again. And guess what, you saw Ah Ma's drink on table and you thought it was your milk, and keep pointing at it. So mummy make 1 oz of breastmilk for you, and again, 1 oz of breastmilk is nothing to you, you shout and shout after that. But thank god, you can get distracted easily, so Ah Ma carry you away and play with you for a while.
While mummy typing this, you are in lala-land again. Daddy is at work and he kept call back to check on you. So far...so good...the last fed of small tiny amount of porridge at 10:20am and you didn't throw out any and now is 11:20am. Hope you are getting better...we miss the active and cheeky you!
