Second haircut~Recent Updates

Thank goodness Kyan has recovered from the massive attacks since last week. It has been a rather tough week for all of us. But this naughty boy is still up to his usual tricks....he doesn't seem able to suck out milk smoothly from the teat, making those "tock tock" sounds here and there and the milk still stays almost the same level 10 mins later *insert expressionless mode here* If he wants to drink, the milk bottle will be emptied in 5mins flat.

Baby K is reaching 8 months very soon!! Fast right....he is very fast in his actions too...crawling and rolling here and there. Most of the times he managed to sit himself upright from a lying position in his playpen.

This is one video of him crawling....notice his attempt at a "banana split" during the start of the video (haha)



We brought him for a second haircut at hwa xia @ Harbourfront last Sat cos his hair has become too long. He has been sweating very often.



I am on leave today! Decided to make some purees for Kyan involving the apricot as i have decided to introduce to Kyan today. I had to go to Nature's Farm and get the dried apricots which are un-sulphured.
1) Porridge with apricot and apple. I mixed bellamy's baby porridge which i cooked with BM and blend together with the apricot and apple. Kyan seems to like it.
2) Apple, Pear and Apricot puree. Made 3 portions and freeze them
3) The other day i made the trio of vegetables puree (pumpkin, parsnip and carrots). Freeze 4 portions.

Going to try sweetcorn and chicken next. Exciting!

Annabel karmel's website offers very good recipes. Try it!

Today is my first attempt at bringing little boy out alone (to Compasspoint), and boy, it was tiring cos i had to carry him in the carrier and it was a strain on my shoulders (painful...sobz...i think i must have sprained some nerve way before as i had problem with shoulder pain since long time back). I wonder how am i going to do this again....

The first time Kyan became so sick...

Poor kyan has been attacked by the many viruses since last Wed.

Mummy is sick along with him as well, with a cough and sore throat plus a bit of a running nose. She is on MC today.

We brought him to see a GP nearby but his medicine doesn't seem to work.

He is still sick as of today, and it has been nearly one week with the viral infections.

First was a fever and mild cough + abit of blocked nose which started last Thurs. Symptoms were displayed on Wed. We bought him to see the GP early morning. His fever persisted till the next day and his cough worsened as well. Poor boy has mucus flowing down whenever he sneezed and was sniffing terribly. We thought the medicine didn't help so we brought him back to see the same GP who this time round, prescribed antibiotics.

The next day (sat), poor boy actually threw up at 11am+, TWICE within an interval of just about 5 to 10mins apart. Kun and i freaked out cos it was alot, so we called up my mum and was advised that maybe the antibiotics caused him to throw up the phlegm as well, so it should be ok. At night he had red swollen eyes and we were worried if he's allergic to the antibiotics, so we decided to monitor the condition till the next day.

P/s. I wish to thank my mum who came over to help in the afternoon.

On Sunday, thank goodness his eyes were ok, but we had a new problem. He had diahorrea! Ogh gosh what happen?? We continued to monitor the situation and by evening, kyan threw up again. This time we were determined to bring him straight to KKH.

The doctor at KKH (young lady) checked kyan's throat and said it was red. She asked us to stop the antibiotics (which actually can cause diahorrea) but continue with the nose drops the GP prescribed, along with some new medicine (for phlegm, wind in stomach - yes kyan has alot of wind in his tummy...).

Today is Tuesday and his cough doesn't get better even after taking all those medicine. In fact it worsened. Poor boy was coughing till his face showed lines of discomfort, breathlessness and exhaustion. He had breathing difficulties and a wheezing sound whenever he coughs and breathes. We decided to bring him to Dr Teoh immediately.

Now he's sleeping after drinking 120ml of milk plus the medication that Dr Teoh prescribed. Dr Teoh had to nebulize the poor boy as his cough and breathing is quite bad.

Mummy is upset and heartbroken seeing him like that =( Pray the little boy will recover soon.
