Jonathan was sick

Jonathan was down with fever last Wed early in the morning. By morning, his fever subsided but by evening, it went up again. We brought him to A&E at a private hospital (coz his paediatrician was closed). The doc said he had an inflammed throat, that was what brought about the fever. The nurse administered a suppository into his buttock and gave him anti-biotics. When we reached home, I mixed the meds into his milk, but he could taste them! Guess he inherited my total dislike for meds of any kind, even the sweet syrup ones. In the end, we had to force the anti-biotic into his throat, poor baby. He didn't have any appetite for milk and with an inflammed throat, Jon woked up almost every hr and I had to give him water.

On Thu, due to miscom, I timed the fever meds wrongly, and as a result, his temperature shot up by mid morning. This time, we brought him to see his pediatrician. I stayed home to take care of him, but he saw grand ma, he wanted her more than me...sniff.

By the weekend, Jonathan's fever subsided but as his throat still had the virus, his neck area was warm. And he cried each time he coughed coz he can't get the phlegm out.

MIL also had a busy weekend since Friday. Simon's sis went to the hospital and she delivered a healthy baby girl 3.4kg within two hours of labour. Praise God for the smooth delivery. Baby had jaundice and had to be exposed to a bout of blue-light on Sat and Sun. Thankfully, by Sun afternoon, she was discharged and they all went back home. I only managed to visit her on Sat evening, coz I didn't want to spread any of Jon's germs to her. Here's the naked baby in the nursery. Will take more pics of her soon.

While taking care of Jon, I took the time to finish up a card for a very good friend. Here's a pic of the cover. Will post the rest when she receives it.
