Full Force!

Baby Joshua is like sick full force in the whole 2 week of Feb. Just recover a few days before CNY.

After his birthday on the 17th Jan, he was already coughing. I did not immediately bring him to a doctor as i still has the cough syrup. Then after the cough, it was his flu. On and off. Then decide to bring him to the doctor.
Then his fever start to come. At first, he was warm all over. So decide to just sponge him and take his temp. Just into Feb, his fever was getting worse. 38 DEGRES! Was very hot. Rush to PD, but not seen his usual one. Was not open. So went all the way to Bishan, not open. End up seeing the one in the central which does not accept CDC card. Charge $57 for the consulatation and medicine. The medicine consist of only paracetemol and cough syrup. Fed him the medicine, but does not want it at all. Was struggling away and crying like i forcing him poison. Bt still manage to made him drink the medicines.
Late into the night, his fever was getting worse. 39 Degress! Fed him paracetamol 4hrly. I still went to work the next day but come home early as grandma called to say he was still very hot even after the medicine. Then bring him to see his PD only in the afternoon as the previous doctor told me to continue to give him the medicine 4hrly if it's still hot. She expect that the fever will still be there.
Anyway, usually at the clinic, there will be a long queue. The nurse was very nice to let us see the doctor first when i tell her that Joshua having fever. Immediately, the doctor insert a pill into his backside. Less than an hr, he was feeling so much better. Even sweating. But then the fever will be back later in the night, told by the doctor.
However, the fever did not came back very high. And he was around 37 - 37.5 Degress. I did not continue to feed him anymore medication when he's fever went down. As that week he was not eating much and too much medication was making him even more unwell. Then sat his fever came back again. Sigh...
He was not slping well at all in the night. As his block nose and cough was getting worse. When he sleep, i could hear his breathing so loudly and the block nose was so bad. And he only makes it worse when he cries. He cries at the slightiest things. And was so cringing to daddy and me. Just like a panda bear...
Then brought him back to the PD. Before the PD, we went to buy a sucker for the mucus at the nose. We use that to suck out all the mucus. I suppose it made him better. But nontheless, we still bring him to see the PD. Another round of medication.
Just a few days before CNY, he fully recovered.
Just the month doctor fee came down to abt $300+. Including Daddy and mine doctor fee. While looking after Baby Joshua, we will also sick. Very bad.
That past 2 weeks have been an nightmare. Luckily, i have people around to help me. If not, i also do not know how to manage it.
After he recovered, i realised that he does not like to sleep at all. He will wakes up at 3am in the morning, after his feed he does not want to go back to sleep. Making us crazy...
I truely hoped that bad habit will go away soon.
