jelly,
not well but at least can eat. i flew to bali on fri, fri night she had high fever, sat morning they brought her down to kkh, flights all full for me, flights full on sunday also but my friend's hb gave me his seat on the 7 am denpasar - sg flight, i bought him a return ticket home on sq at 8 pm. reached sg, cabbed to kkh. blood test confirmation of hfmd, she couldn't eat or drink due to the ulcers in her mouth so they tried to stick a drip in but she pulled it out and refused to have one after the blood test. yesterday got better, had milk, had porridge, dessert, bread.
i'ld like to attribute her new found optimism to my presence ahha but i cannot take so much credit. my mil really loves her alot. saw that..
damn difficult lah, half way back from ubud, got the phonecall from my mom and i bawled all the way to denpasar to try and get an immediate flight home or at least organise the next one there and there. it's so difficult when the kid is sick and you cannot be there for her. even if i know it's just hfmd and it'ld pass.. it's alot of guilt.
now that i'm back and have taken the week off because my mil is down with flu, i feel damn sian. ok the instructions is can bring her out but no contact with other children.
she was prescribed paracetamol and an oral steroid to reduce the imflammation of the gums. she has about 7 ulcers in the mouth, 3 on gums, 1 on palate, 3 at the back of throat. measles like rash on groin, bum, legs, arms, hands, soles of feet has two blisters. i learnt from the doc that 14 days is a safe window for recovery but 3 weeks to a month after the 14 days, the child remains contagious because the virus is excreted through faecal matter as well as saliva.
so.. there you have it. i'm so going back to bali.. this time prob with abby in tow.
gah. so much work to catch up on.. i hate taking leave and staying home, it's working at home with the stupid laptop. argh.

Lots of babies are sick this 2 weeks! Hope all those who are sick will recover soon and those who are not will stay healthy and free of viruses!
Mum's away on holiday since last Friday so hubby's on leave today being 'Penguin Daddy'. Glad that everything's so far so good! Hubby's 'complaining' that Dylan's following him everywhere he goes via walking though...seems like Dylan's walking everywhere and not crawling the whole of today...haha! Hubby feels stalked!

Unwell babies
Oooh so many. So scary. In actual fact, I'm so afraid until I'm very pessimistic. Every night, expecting to touch a hot hot Jo.

Think you missed my post. May I know the brand of toothpaste you're using for both your kids?

icylemon,
Regina had inflammation of the lungs and caused her to have breathing difficulties. She was wheezing away so no choice sent her to hospital. PD decided to admit her for one night cos needed the neubiliser to stabilise her breathing.
pildough,
Don't beat yourself up over it. You didn't expect it to happen. But that being said, I also felt guilty that I didn't take proper care of Regina's cough and caused her to be admitted to hospital.

eelyn- Thxs dear
mint- How did Regina adapts to the neubiliser? did she cry or resist? We had a hard time just now at the clinic, Kaelyn just refused and put up a tough fight wit us. Btw other than the neubiliser, did ur Pd still gave u other medicines or antibiotics?

Thanks! Jo prefers brushing teeth when there's 'flavour'. What about Pediped? Are you going to spree that too?
Tribulations of a Full Time Mother
I think beside EY, I'm one of the few full time mothers. I know there are several SAHMs here, but you have quite a lot of help from spouses/mothers/MILs. That means, there's no place I have gone without Jo.
And because of that, I've realised that I've lost quite a few friends. Sad but true. Not only friends. Even the very understanding friends will skip my name for some socialising events like pubbing. How to bring Jo? And of course, I can understand there are times when they just want to hang out with adults.

nickypower,
The first time Regina used the neubiliser, she also wailed and kicked and screamed. Sigh! But she has gotten used to it liao after so many times in the hospital. So now when I administer it at home, she just sit quietly and flip through her book or play with her toy. So after each session, I praise her for being so well behaved.
Doc prescribed antibiotics and steroids. Paracetemol also in case of fever.

karen
i feel the same.
some of my friends who dun hv kids have stopped contacting or asking me out. I can understand them though. And I tried to avoid restaurants sometimes cuz with 2 in the restaurant, it can be very pressuring.
I do not hv any help from anyoneand my hub is always away.
sigh. tough tough to do everything by yourself.

EY, mint, Karen,
Actually I dun blame my friend for "deleting" my name n never ask me out. Cause I find myself cant stop talking about my darling Kai Tong. She is a child-hater so of course it bored her to the rim. Haha...
nickypower,
Hope Kaelyn get well soon. I saw kids at my PD clinic been administered neubiliser, they all screamed n yell till very cham. My heart always skipped when I heard their cries. So can understand ur heartpain. But no choice, for Kaelyn good, mummy must be 狠心.
Really hope all bb who are sick get well soon. Wat happen to those good days when we literally run around the neighbourhood, with no dettol or wipes stand-by and play with the neighbour son who got running nose yet I never get it from him. It make me wonder did our kids get weaker immunity as compared to us? Also, is weather really that bad n it means the earth is sick also. Haizz...

Cheerbear,
Actually, yes. My baby has been eating the same old thing, albeit a bit of plain rice and bread here and there, since day one. Basically, most of the time, my husband is the main caregiver when she's with us, and you know how men are like. I'm more in charge of my elder kid. I always feel so guilty when I see how adventurous you mummies are on the diet of your babies, but it largely remains as that - guilt. I thought as long as she doesn't mind the same old diet, let her be until she's older.
On friends:
Basically, I have my first kid quite young, comparatively to my friends and colleagues. And the mothers at those music schools were older than me. So I'm pretty much without friends for as long as my first kid was born. It's inevitable that friends not married or without kids will eventually move away from you becos of the different social activities.
When my elder sister and I took my kid to her P1 orientation, the mothers all wanted to talk to my sister becos they thought she was the mother. When my sister referred them to me, since I was the 'legitimate' mother, they didn't have much to say to me. Up till now, when I took my kid to her school's lantern fest celebration, her schoolmate's mother thought I was her aunt.
For working mothers, it's not better. Altho I've colleagues, my job is such that we don't get to have our lunchtime together. Basically, we gulp down our lunch in ten mins and get back to work. And my colleagues who have older kids are usually older and auntier, and my colleagues who are my age either have just babies or don't even have kids. I'm like a caught-in-between.

bb using nebuliser - they r always scare for the first few time they use but after that is ok liao.. shawn also cry buckets during the first few times. think they r scare of the sound and the mist produce.

Morning ladies! A great sunny day to go out! Hope can bring my gal go out for a swim.
rains,
10 mins lunch? In my school, we Chinese teachers had the same time table so we will join each other for lunch, though not long, but can still enjoy chit-chatting. They are much older teachers with grown up kids. Younger teachers usually dun have kids. Just like ur case but I still enjoy conversation with them. We usually talk about our "kids" aka students. Haha...
Dun have to feel guilty towards ur kid, if ur kid grow healthy and happily eating all her food, it is fine. But it is not good to eat carrots all days, too much of something (forgot wat is it). But since now is school holidays, u might wish to try new recipe for her. It's fun! Hehe...
Jellypurin,
MS start to hit u? See doc liao? Rest well!

kaelyn also ah...poor dear. hugs. it's natural for them to cry... still so young... at my PD's, i see older children also cry and cry when they have to use it.
mums life
well it doesn't get better. there are concerts, theatre plays, KARAOKE (gosh i miss karaoke) etc that i used to enjoy but no longer. even if can get babysitter, have to rush back asap or leave early. cannot enjoy at all. i haven't been karaoke since late pregnancy and all my karaoke kakis know i cannot make it at night anyway so stopped asking liao.
can only hang in there and hope it'll get better when they GROW UP and we can get a semblance of our life back, albeit a bit late when we are already lao kok kok. guess that's why u have aunties at dragonfly trying to recapture what they missed. haha.
