Mommy Rants

Yes! It's been a long time. For more than two months, I haven't write anything on my blogs and didn't dare to even view it until now. There are a lot of things I missed online, like contests, blog walking and fixing links on a Wordpress blog as well as the incoming domain account that I have to pay. Some of the paid-to-click sites in which I am a member went back to zero because of inactivity.

The reason is my baby's sickness. I post about his on and off fever that resulted to amoebiasis and a ruled-out bronchitis. For two months, I accept the fact that my baby is sickly. He just recovered from another bout of fever and "tigdas hangin" (german measles) aside from a delayed teething process. He was not hospitalized and no strong injectable antibiotics for him.. Every time the hospital staff do that to my son, I feel like stopping them. I only give him vitamin c (Ceelin) 2x daily and keep an eye on his back for wetness.So, I thought being a mother really has a big role and responsibilities.

How I wish I can handle both worlds (online gigs and my son). Mommy has to find time to earn online to save for your future, though. I choose to stop for more than two months and see for myself.


Daddy and a Baby.... Rushed Baby in The Hospital

Yesterday, both my husband and I had a sleepless nights because of baby's fever is high again. I am sad and worried. At 4:30pm, we gave him medicine for his fever and runny nose. Then, my husband told me to feed him, earlier. So, we can get and catch some sleep. He stand up and mixed cereal for baby and I feed the baby. Husband took the baby in his arms and I gave another antibiotic medicine. Supposedly, I'll give him 7.5ml dose of the antibiotic. But, after giving him the first dose (2.5ml), he vomit. My husbands' and my shirt were both wet from water and cereal. I stop giving him another dose for a breather. So, baby will rest and sleep.

At 12 noon, after feeding the baby for his lunch, husband carry the baby to sleep. I admit, I'm sleepy too but I gave them the chance to sleep together. Especially, husband is so tired from work and responsibilities with the baby. While, I watch the internet shop and have a chance to write posts for this blog. After an hour, baby started to cry again. He does not want to stay in bed but in his father's arm to sleep. Oh my, baby is now heavy. The father, patiently carry him in his arms and sleep on a beach chair. Oh, I forgot to take their pictures. I am grateful with my husband and at the same time, pity him. I know he's very tired. Still, he carry our baby and give me a chance to write a post while watching the shop.

At 5:30pm, baby's fever is 38. I feed him and then gave the antibiotic. He cried and slap the dropper many times. Yet, I forced him to take the medicine. A trustee from the hospital took baby in her arms to soothe him. But, before I can give the last drop of the antibiotic, he vomit again. Instantly, the trustee told me to bring him to the hospital. Immediately, my baby was admitted and given an injectable antibiotics. At 9:30pm, he's fever is 38.8, so, they gave him a paracetamol (injection) medicine through the iv.

As of this time, both my husband and baby were sleeping soundly. Before leaving, I touch baby's forehead and luckily, the fever subside.

A Late New Year Post Celebration


It's a late New Year post celebration!

Afternoon, on the  31st of December 2011, my baby, again, has a fever. We thought we'll be welcoming the New Year with good health. He's fine in the morning! He walked in his cart, around the hospital grounds with his godfather. He slept for 2 hours and wake up crying. When I touch him, he's hot again. I gave him paracetamol drops and wipe him with a wet cloth. Hoping, it will drop the temperature.

Even so, my husband bought cooked foods for the midnight siesta. He bought (1) one jumbo Fried Chicken, (1) one Liempo, 2 small oblong-shaped pan of Leche Flan and (1) one 1.5 liter of Coke. It's a small celebration in welcoming the New Year! We are only three including my baby. The two hospital trustees went home to celebrate.

At 10pm, the start of fire works began. We can hear different sounds of firecrackers like "pla-pla", "picolo" and "kwitis" that lits the sky.  We wrapped Baby Chrizs and went out to see the fireworks display. But then, the smoke from the firecrackers has stop us to move places for a better view. So, we went back, inside the shop, and close the door. Then, maximize the sound from the speaker and press the toys of my son to make a lot of noise. While baby, went around the shop shouting and clapping his hands in his walker! Yay! Happy New Year everyone! :)

I Thought Baby Chrizs Is Okay

Yesterday morning, I woked up with Baby Chrizs having a fever of 38 degrees celsius. I gave him Paracetamol drops and he went back to sleep afterwards. When breakfast came, he was laughing on his godfathers funny antics and kicking. But, when afternoon came, he got runny nose. I went to see a doctor and asked what's the best remedy for a baby like him. I even told the doctor that he had a fever but when she touched him, there's none. The doctor told me to give him vitamin c and water. There's no suggestion for a medicine for his fever, since he was okay.

But around 4am Baby Chrizs cried. He has a fever and when I checked the temp it's still the same. After a few minutes, he chilled, so I give him 0.75ml paracetamol drops. I don't know what else to do because it's too early in the morning. I asked help from a neighbor who is online on Facebook. She suggested another brand for his fever and runny nose. She told me to try it. She suggested to bring my little son to the hospital if the fever will not go down. Sure, I will if fever persist!
