Andre's 1st dose of 6-in-1 jab & Rotarix...

We brought Andre for his 1st jab though he was still not feeling very well on 4 July. But Dr Lillian gave the go ahead and proceed wif the jab and the oral med. Andre was very brave and didnt cry at all when being jab in the bottom. She also examined him and commented that his development was quite fast. He was able to lift up his head and looked around when being put on his tummy and etc.

Dr Lillian also gave Andre Zytec to take for 2 weeks and to stop the remaining medication. But the next day after the jab and the oral med (Rotarix),Andre started having diarrhoea and it gets worse n worse. He started to poo every milk feed and intervals btw the milk feeds. So tat is about 8 times per day. Really very heartpain to see him like tat cos he will cry abit at every pooing...I guess the redness at his anus caused him pain and all I could do was to apply lots of diaper cream for him to ease the pain.

Today, I called Dr Lillian and found tat the Rotarix might caused him to have diarrhoea..at least it eased my mind abit knowing tat it was not caused by the switching of goat's milk to cow's milk. She prescribe some Lacto capsules for Andre to take to help in the diarrhoea-ing. Hope tat he will recover soon as it is really very heartpain to see him suffer like tat at such a young age.

Andre's stats as at 4th July:
Weight: 4.9 kg
Height: 56.5cm
