I am so tired and worried

Charis is sick since last Thursday
Stomach flu!
Diarrhoae + vomiting + fever up to 40 degrees
Finally today she is well, no more diarrhoae and vomiting
But the fever keep coming back
and she refuse to drink water
What can I do to make her drink water and keep her hydrated?
She seems to wet less diaper and getting more listless
I feel so loss!

    Don't fret.
    Did you give her antibiotic? If yes, the diarhoea might be caused by it.

    2ndly give her juice, fruit, anything that she likes, if cannot force her to drink with syringe. She will cry but thats what we have to do- maddysmum

    3rd compress her regularly for her fever.

    4th you might have to give her soy based formula instead of regular formula coz lactose caused diarhoea to be worst. Ask your PD for a sample. If charis dun like then you give her rice water.

    Hope she will be well soon

Arrival of baby Nicholas

19 April 2021, we welcomed our new member :) he has came to us as a surprised gift. I got to know I was pregnant last Sep, at first it came to me as a shock rather than surprise. Firstly I did not thought that getting conceive is easy, for all previous pregnancy, I have tried ways and means to get pregnant, and now I did not even try and I strike jackpot! Of course, baby equal joy!!! We broken the news to our kids and Charis even cried when she heard it. My pregnancy journey is not a smooth one, at 40 year old, I feel my body is not prepared and weak for this pregnancy. I have bleeding for the whole T2 and pelvic pain for T3. Basically i need more and more bedrest and because I get to work from home due to covid 19, I did not have to travel to work or request any medical leave. 16 April 2021, I am at week 37 plus 4days, during the gynae check, I was already 2cm dilated, I am excited. My inital plan is to induce on 19 April as I am worried that the fliud level will drop after week 38...

Charis is better now No more fever after 1 week No more runny nose No more coughing I was so worried when she was still having fever (37.4 ~ 37.8 degrees) on monday... Pd say it may be due to the flu that is why she is still having fever on & off felt so painful when they use a machine to suck out her mucus Charis was struggling bad! I believe she HATES doctor now She has phlegm in her lung I was so scared that it will turn be to bronchiolitis Hengz... I made a call to Ah kor, she gave me a method 1) Feed her with barley 2) No shower because she caught a flu 3) Use Ru Yi Oil plus a few drop of martell and massage on her tummy And it WORKS on her! Really 佩服 ah kor! 谢天谢地！！ ！ She can sleep well again! (include us too)
