sick....

MZ had roseola today..... :(

His face had small red spots, we thought it might be the reaction of the medications he took for his fever and swollen throat, but the pd said it's roseola. The 1st symptom is having high fever (more thna 38.5C), then have diarrhoea, and finally the red spots/rashes come out and the fever subsides. Yes, all these happened to my poor baby! His temperature was below 37C yesterday all day long, so we thought he was ok! But this morning, all the spots and rashes appeared....

Nothing could be done, except feeding him the oral rehydration salts for 6 days (1 pack/day with 8oz of water), and moderate his temperature frequently. However, my boy is not a big fan of H2O! We have to force him to drink, or use spoon to feed him little by little, or use some "dirty tricks" ! hm....

On top of that, we're blessed that MZ was doing ok! I mean, he wasn't cranky much, wasn't crying at all or couldn't sleep nor eat, eveyrthing was like normal, except that his face and body was ugly.....urgh.....

I was thinking of taking photo of his face, but his dad disliked this idea....yeah, perhaps I should not show the ugly face to everyone out there.....
