Bb is sick

A day after visiting the Zoo bb fell sick, not because of the zoo, I hope not. When he came back from Mil’s house, he was perfectly okay except he slept extraordinary early at 9pm. I thought may be bb is tired and wanted to rest early.

I then went down to watch some show, after a disc, I headed back to the room and checked on him. OMG! He was like a pot of hot kettle. I grabbed a thermometer to check, it showed 38.4 degree, freaked out, I called hubby to help out with medicine while I sponged him. His face was rosy red, eyes still closed. As usual refused medicine, cry out loud but settled with a bottle of water and as active, played with the thermometer. He then purged watery stool. I monitored him the entire night just to make sure he was okay as he has history of fever as high as 40 degree and was admitted to hospital for 3 days in 2004. I was worried sick.

I took a day of on Wednesday to send him to the pediatrician, just to make sure he was free of any ulcers or infections. He was as active and as mischievous as usual, trying to communicate his baby words to strangers, smiling all the time with nurses, running around non-stop, kicking the Christmas ornaments on the tree with his powerful leg.

After chatted with the lady Dr, I brought bb back to mil house to grab some porridge that she has cooked before she went out for her weekly entertainment – “Mah Jong”. Sri fed bb the porridge in the car. He took a few spoonfuls of them. My maid called “madam, tengok (See)”, she was giggling, bb fell asleep with porridge still in his mouth, hahaha! Sri and myself giggled non-stop, bb must have heard it, he opened a bit of his eyes, gave us a smile and fell back to sleep, his head was hovering around before it rested on the car seat.

Bb spent the entire day at home watching his favorite show my neighbor Totoro, his current favorite “kipper the dog”.

I am back to work today. I hope he is better already; I don’t like that butterfly in the stomach feeling. Now, I am down with flu and sore throat pula.

Bb mommy loves you a lot! Lots of Kisses….mmuuuuuuaaaahhh, get well soon.

Thank you! BB is all right now and I have just recovered from my fever, sore throat and flu. I guess all mothers feel the same, when their precious little one get sick, it's out responsibility to make sure they r okay, that's why sometime we over react. :)

Dinner. Stranger.

LAST NIGHT was MIL’s birthday. We went for a simple dinner at Mt. Kiara, a Taiwanese restaurant. Bb was excited to be out as usual, trying to show off how to operate his Bob the Builder’s bottle to uncle Jo, Bil. He has been sipping water from that bottle ever since daddy purchased it, which is good, no more bottles in public. He also created rapport with waiter and waitresses there. There was a fat uncle got so fond of him and present-ed him a chopstick holder. (Like that also can. Hah!) Bb showed it to me, it was in the shape of a Japanese koi fish. I told him to return it to uncle, Sri told me he returned but uncle insisted he kept it. UR! Okay! “Well, then you can keep it” I told him. Later, he came to me telling he was scared. I asked him why, he told me the BIG BIG uncle scary. Actually according to Sri, that uncle wanted to carry him, he got scared. Mil told me this - Once a stranger offer to carry bb, he wanted to go with stranger, mil threatened him that if he goes, he will ne

Update

Gosh! He is still crying after 2 weeks. I spoke to my sister a couple of days ago telling her my concern over bb’s behaviour. When ask by daddy or mil whether he cries in school; bb’s answer is always “NO! I never cry”, uttered with confidence. In fact, he cries furiously when I drop him to school daily. His excuses before leaving with the teacher are either, “I want to go back or I want mommy or I want my kakak…”. Sis told me to boil an egg and keep it in his school bag; he will be okay in 2 weeks. Err…I have no idea why, it was a myth she heard from elder woman to soothes kids from crying to school. Has anyone heard of this tale before? Does it work was my immediate question to her. Well obviously, she said it worked for her 3rd child. I am very doubtful la but still I asked Sri to boiled one this morning for bb to bring to school. I am keeping my fingers cross. *counting- 1,2 3, 4, 5….eggs need to be boiled b4 he stops crying, wah, who is gonna eat those eggs???* Of late, I have bee
