Missing Baby..

Woke up at 4am in the morning as baby was crying very terribly and mummy smelt something in his bum. Baby had diarrhae again. He must be in terrible pain thus he is cried till so terribly. At 5 plus, he had a second diarrhae. Again this time he cried very terribly. The poo was so watery and yellowy.. He is really suffering a lot!!!

Was tempted to take child care leave today however today is the last day of Sec 1 Orientation which will end with a campfire at night. No easy to pass this big job to others.. Therefore, mum volunteered to take leave to take care of baby for today. Really appreciate her a lot.. If not, I really do not know what to do with such a maid. Dun think she puts in effort in taking care of my precious..

Though I was in school the whole day, I really missed baby a lot. Do not know what has happen to him, do not know if he is getting better, do not know so many things.. Been calling back a few times. Can't really concentrate in my work yet cannot make any mistake... Sigh.. At 1 plus when I called back, mum told me baby has a bruise at his left eye as he missed his step and hit the cabinet. Was so heartbroken but can't blame anyone for it as he is indeed a very naughty boy.. But the good news is that he is recovering from his diarrhae. This puts me at ease a little.

The whole orientation ended at 9.30pm and Derrick drove me back home.. When I was home, baby was already asleep. When I saw the bruise at his left eye, I was really sad that I cried..This naughty boy should learn a lesson by now.

Really missed baby a lot...

Baby had diarrhae again...

Today is deardear and my 3rd year ROM anniversary.. However, still have to go to school.. Deardear surprised me with a photo frame in the morning. So touched.. I almost forgotten about today...

Baby woke up cranky and with flu. Was little worried.. However still have to go sch as I am in charge of Sec 1 Orientation from 7 to 9 Jan. Was busy the whole day in school until 2 plus when mum called me and said that baby had diarrhae twice in the day. I immediately delegated my job to another of my colleague and rushed home to bring baby to see Doc Ong.

At Aglow, Doc Ong has concluded that baby had bloated stomach and flu and he suspected baby had Stomach Flu. Doc Ong gave baby some flu medicine and diarrhae medicine.

After reaching home I immediately gave baby his medicine and put him to bed. Was very pissed with Tita as she did not call me immediately baby had his first diarrhae and even gave him papaya.. Poor baby.. suffered so much before I brought him to the doc. So when deardear came home, he reprimanded Tita for her carelessness in her work and slow in reacting when baby was not feeling well.

Just hope that baby will get well soon...

Down with Fever again

Baby Caden was down with fever again early this morning. All of us woke up at 4 plus again as baby was a little cranky. After taking his temp, I was beginning to worry again. His temp is 37.8 degrees. However, he is still sleepy. I have decided to let him sleep a little longer till 6 am when he wakes up before feeding him medicine.

When he woke up at 6 am, his temp has risen to 38.2 degrees. Mummy immediately feed him with fever medicine. Subsequently, his fever has gone down to 37.6 degrees. After monitoring for another few hours, we decided to give him another feed of medicine. Finally, at 12pm, his fever has subsided completely. From then onwards, Tita did not feed him any medicine. And according to Tita, baby had diarrhea - had watery stools twice today. After letting out the watery stools, he seems to feel better and no more fever.

I felt very guilty as I can't come home early. Reached home only at 7.30pm as I had work to do and had CCA today. Poor baby... Miss him so much today..

Baby Caden's Great Grandmother's Birthday Celebration

Today is baby Caden's Great Grandmother's birthday celebration. Lucky he is feeling better. His fever has gone down completely last midnight at 12am. After his last feed of fever medicine at 10pm, we stopped his fever medicine completely.

At 6.25pm, gong gong came over to drive us to Bendemeer (Lai Wah Restaurant) for the celebration. Baby was dressed in his christmas suit. We were the last to arrive but just in time to start the dinner. He was so excited to see so many people and being carried by so many people today. Thus, he refused to drink his milk.. Too many people.. So deardear and I had to go out of the restaurant to feed him his milk.

At around 8 pm, we sang birthday song for great grandma and had the infamous Emicake Durian Cake. Then gong gong drove us back again.

First day in School

Its my first day in school... I woke up at 4am.. Not that I am excited about work. Baby Caden was crying very miserably then.. My mum said that he might be down with fever as his body is very hot throughout. I immediately took his temp and he is indeed down with fever - 38.8 degrees. Both deardear and I immediately jumped out of our bed.. We started planning who to take child care leave today. My mum volunteered to take leave in the morning and bring baby to Doc Ong. As for deardear, he will take the afternoon off. Me? Can't really take child care leave as its the first day of school and I am in charge of the Sec 1s today. Too last min.. How I wish I can just stay at home with baby.. With a worried mind, I went to work.. It seems to be a long day as I am so worried about baby...

Luckily my mum said that baby was only down with fever. No flu or cough.. Its virus infection.. Maybe we bring him out too often for the past few days.. Sigh... So we are grounded for the weekend...

Managed to leave school finally at 4.30pm to rush home to see my precious.. So glad that his temp has gone down but still maintaining between 37.5 to 37.8 degrees. Really heartbroken.. Maybe he just not used to both deardear and I starting work formally. I was joking with deardear that it might be his way to force us to be with him all the time..

What a way to start work this year...

New Year Day

Its baby's first new year. Brought my whole family - Lau Ma, Xiao yi po, po po, gong gong, to Imperial Treasure Teochew Restaurant for New year lunch. Gave them a treat from that miserable bonus that I have just gotten. Baby Caden was so happy.. He seems to enjoy every outing. Guess he has to treasure them as I am starting work soon so will have to cut down on the outing.. Haha..

After lunch, we had a short walk around Taka. Then we took cab back home.. Once home, baby went to sleep. Guess he is tired from all the outing...
