Andre's 2nd 6-in-1 & Rotarix

Yesterday afternoon, hb came back home during lunch to bring Andre for his jab as I need to be at home taking care of Amadeus.

Same as the pevious time, Andre didn't cry or scream when being jabbed on the butt. Dr Lillian also commented tat his development was quite good :)

Glad tat Andre didn't had any fever but he had diarrhea due to the Rotarix.

His stats:
Weight: 6.4 kg (75 percentile)
Height: 63 cm (75 percentile)

Gastric Flu or Food Poisoning???

The doc also not sure...anyway, he said tat now got a lot of viruses flying ard and last nite alone he already saw alot of kiddos wif similar symptoms like Amadeus...

anyway, this is the story....

Amadeus coughed very badly in his sleep and ard 3pm am, he vomitted big time, out came his dinner and hb changed the bedsheet. Amadeus felt nausea n vomitted some phelgm out again n I bathe him after tat. We thought tat this is the end but who knows, within minutes upon hitting the sack, he vomitted again...luckily hb reacted fast n quickly carried him to the bin to let him carry on his vomitting hence no need to change bedsheet. After tat, I cleaned him up and I slept wif him while hb went to sleep wif Andre. Who knows, jus when I was falling asleep, Amadeus stirred in his sleep and vomitted out alot of yellow juices and phelgm. I quickly on the light n to my horror, I saw him lying face up on the bed wif vomit all over his face and on the bed.

I quickly woke hb up and told him tat something was not rite cos normally Amadeus only vomitted once if it was due to coughing. This time round, he would vomit whenever he drinks water (luckily we didn't give him any milk). And his 'want to vomit but nothing to vomit' expression is so pitiful cos I knew how terrible tat feeling was. I was feaked out and decided to bring him to KKH at 6am while hb stayed at home wif Andre and went to work after my mom came over.

Luckily there were not much patients at the A&E when we reached there at abt 6.30am. So we managed to see the doc relatively fast (he vomitted one more time). He need to stay there to take some anti-vomitting med and glucose water to see whether his vomitting continues. Luckily, no more vomit and after examining by the doc and collecting his medication, we went to the food court for some porridge and the exhausted Amadeus fell asleep on the way home.

Not again...

Just when Andre is going to take his 2nd 6-in-1, he started coughing quite badly and even merlion his milk this morning...how many times must I postpone his jab? had been 2 times liao and if I postpone again, don't know when he will be able to take the jab considering the ridiculous amt of kids visiting the clinic and the crazy waiting time. He was recovering and so I reduced his medication frequency from 4 times to 3 times per day and sometimes 2 times. And, his cough came back. My gawd! Does this means tat he has to keep taking medication to keep the cough at bay?

Amadeus also...He was recovering too and the moment he went back to CC, his cough started to come back. I'm really getting very frustrated wif all their sickness! Please, please let them get well soon and I mean real soon....Amadeus had been deprived of his swimming and it had been ages since we brought him to have some fun at fidgets or eXplorer.

Andre is 4th Mths Old

I'm so happy tat I managed to survive these 4 mths. It was not easy taking care of Andre cos he cries alot in the daytime and always wanted me to be around to play or accompany him. He doesn't like to be left alone in the bouncer. And when he cried, it is non-stop till I carried him and the moment I carried him, his crying immediately stop! I felt really frustrated at times as I couldn't do anything and I would scold and beat him on his thigh. I would felt guilty after tat as he was still so young and the only thing he can do is cry but instead of pacifying him, I screamed & beat him. And instead of being angry wif me, he would still smile at me after his crying. Really felt very bad. So I resolved to be more patient wif him and to be more tolerant of his crying. Hope I can achieve this.

Anyway, Happy 4th Mths to my little baby :)

Do you know what he is trying to do? Look at the next pic...

He is lifting his head...had been doing this repeatedly recently...

Lastly, wanna share this pic of the brothers - I really loved this photo of them :)

Mixed up Andre's Lunar date

hahaha....I posted b4 tat we helped Andre performed the 'stop drooling' ritual during his lunar 4th mth...but today, I realised tat I actually mixed up the day. Amadeus is 初十 and Andre is 初二十..so by rite, Andre's 4th mth shld be tomolo...thus shall perform the ritual again...as for the shaving, what's done cannot be undone..blur me...

Getting very excited and can't wait for Dec to come...but first, we need to make Andre's passport.

Love You!

Recently, whenever I stuck Amadeus to bed, I will say 'nite nite' to him and kiss him on his cheek and end wif a 'love you'. He will immediately reply 'love you' to me and sometimes followed wif a hug. His reply never fail to warm my heart. Felt so happy upon hearing tat :)

Sometimes when I was lying on the bed wif him, he will put his hands ard my shoulder and my head will be  resting on his chest. This never fails to make me laugh as this action is like how a bf will treat his gf...haha...

Really must treasure the times spent wif him now, or else when he gets older, don't tink he will still hug me like tat.
