SICK, again…
Categorised under Sick Times | 5 Comments »
I don’t know if it’s continuation from the previous time, but Rachel was down again yesterday…
I notice that she had a slight temperature, gave her medicine and put her to sleep, thinking it’s just mild fever… Less than 2 hours into her slumber, she sounded like she developed phlegm and was coughing and ‘choking’ on it, which wakes her up and demanded to be carried… It went on the whole night, within 1 to 2 hours interval… By 6am, her body temperature was SO HOT, her face was flush red!
Tecky went to get her some high fever medicine, but after forcing it into her, I was getting very worried as the temperature did not decrease… We later realise that Tecky took the wrong medicine the first time around, about 2 1/2 hours later! Lucky it was just cough medicine I tell you… *SIGH*
We both took leave today, to care for the little one… This is probably the worse of her sickness, and she’s even showing reluctance to milk, and did not have much energy… I hope it all go away soon, as her 2nd birthday is coming up, and I don’t like the idea of her being sick on her birthday! For now, her fever is under control, but her voice has changed already…

Having a nap (3 whole hours) after her medicine…
We put a double layer of pillow to lift up her head more, to ensure the phlegm doesn’t flow back and block her breathing…





You know that advertisement where the father was teaching the kid how to say flower, when the kid turned around and say ORCHID LAR!?
