FEVER

On Tue Mrng, ah boy suddenly had a fever. He measured 37.1Deg... As 1st time parents and he having a fever for the 1st time too, we took no chance and I brought him to a clinic for checkup. The doc cannot detect wat causing the fever and his temperature was 37.7deg. Beside, for any baby tt is below 2mths and run a fever, has admitted to hospital. So v immediate send him to KK and again, doc at the emergency clinic cant detect wat wrong. So he was admitted for more detailed checking. Poor ah boy... He was sponged to reduce his fever... and the cloth is so cold and he shivering...

The nurse took ah boy’s urine, blood for laboratory testing... And meanwhile ah boy’s right hand is poked wif a needle for antibiotics... Ah boy is so small, n he nid to be poke at such a young age... He cry for quite a while wen he was brought back fr those pokings... It muz be very painful for him.. He took quite a while to fall asleep.. den he back to normal... I sneak home to pick up some clothes as I need to look after ah boy overnite at the hospital... I really hate staying in hospital.. I cant slp at all on the 1st nite... partially is I worried, and aso the atmosphere is uncomfortable. But luckily ah boy can slp well, he juz wake up in btwn for his feeding... den he doze off all the way... Guess he’s tired...
Ah boy’s fever subsides in the late evening but he need to stay for another day for the lab report... he was finally discharged on thu afternn and the report shows he is fine... He really scares us... And v take extra care in looking after him.. so tt he will not b so vulnerable again...
