When she falls sick
Whenever E falls sick, I blame myself for not taking better care of her or why did I do certain things that might have caused her to fall sick. Like now after her viral infection, it spread to me and it manifest itself as a serious case of viral flu which has since spread to the whole family including my grandma who also fell sick because of it. And the because of that, E has is now down with a case of the common cold which caused her to cough, have a blocked nose which has been causing her problems sleeping at night in turn giving me problems sleeping at night So the cycle goes round and round. The gist of it all is that, could I have done better?
I thought about, along with many other things and its that I have done all that I can to the best of my abilities and I think that sometimes,by being too overprotective I might be making her weaker instead so having her go through all these minor illnesses but making sure that we send her to the Doc's (read KK or my Gp since I was a baby, yep my GP is still ard and he is now seeing the second generation.) As long as she recovers and does not fall into any serious sickness and is active and happy I think I have not neglect my job has her mom. But also to balance it, there is a need to rein in my little rascal's naughtiness (read, when she is sick, she gets pampered) after recovery I feel that no matter what as long as she is healthy and safe, I am a happy mom.
Having said that, do I think that it is my fault that she fell sick? I think I have to be more careful but I having read in a baby magazine about how a baby after falling sick to a certain illness they will develop a strong immunity against it I think I am doing quite fine but need to pay more attention to the finer details before bringing her to places again.

Feeling Down
I am feeling down..the whole reason being I am down.Sick that is. I am sick. And the only reason now I am able to type this is simply because I am feeling only mildly dizzy. I have been down for the past 2-3days and I am going back to the doc this evening for a review.
My gosh, I am feeling so so sick that I can barely open my eyes and my head hurts like its splitting open. Man..hate being sick.

Viral Infection = High Fever
E was down with yo yo fever for the past few days. Only today afternoon after our second visit to KK that she finally got over the yo yo fever. Apparently after urine tests, blood tests that all showed negative, they conclude that its a viral infection that caused the fever to yo yo up and down.
Especially worrying part is with her taking her panadol the fever could still hit a high of 40.5 and that was scary for me. The surprise that came out of it was that we realised how resilent E can be and how as parents we turned out to be. The exceptionals were the fact that how family support rallied behind us to assist, help, doing whatever everyone can. i was especially appreciative of the fact that my grandma was all giving all the suggestions (traditional) but I think I fully appreciate all the things done so as to get the fever down. I was pissed of with the doc at the neighbourhoodthat we first went, he said sore throat only although we told him that she had an eariler throat infection. Hai, should have went to KK first thing when her fever hit the 38.5 mark.
But once it hit 39, it was KKH at 9.30pm. We were there till 2am where they did a urine test and twice a urine bag was placed and twice it did not collect well until the doc managed to take a sample from the second not so well collected urine then it showed negative and the doc cleared her to go home with panadol and antibiotic and deduce it to be a viral infection.Third night, t did not go down we went back again this time at to go back again and this time they did a blood test and it showed negative but each time we went there, we went through passage 11 where all the emergency cases was sent for immediate care. So anyhow, she is better now, with her fever subsiding with constant sponging as well as monitoring her temperature and having her take her medication, all she can is to fight the infection the best she can. From the current status of it, I think she is winning the battle.

Ramble ramble
Fine, I ramble...i can go on and on and on with my rambling. Well what to do, I have thoughts.haha.
Any case, been really tired out lately and thinking about how E is like.
She is intelligent, mischievous, impish, happy, cheery and happy. Most of the things are positive..wait wait. She is very active too. Only thing I blame is my schedule and H's schedule. The way we do it, she does not get a regular bedtime. And that is not a good thing at all. She used to knock out at 9pm and now she conks out about 10plus 11pm. Not good at all.
The way i see it, we need to work a routine. And I need to learn how to drive. damn it.
