Daniel's Coughing ~ boohooo

Last Tuesday, I brought Daniel to Growing Up Gifted (GUG) at United Square. He loves it! He loves the songs and actions and he's definitely very curious when the Magic Bag was passed around. The teachers were praising him at how good he is during the 1st class, and saying he's very ready for school. I felt good of course, but maybe it's a marketing gimmick. Then again, Daniel did benefit from it. Whether he can recall anything from it, that's another thing.

The only thing I regretted is as shown below. He put the toys into his mouth!!!! Nooooooo.....!!!!


Baby being soooooo curious and attentive to the teachers. I am glad he was exposed to some chinese words and songs.


"What's that?"


"Is it edible?"



After that eventful day, baby was tired with the activities. Then he started having fever and some dry cough in the evening. ZX thought the fever was mild so we just slept. At 3 am, I touched his forehead and measured his temperature, it was 38.9 celcius! Yikes!!!


So now, he has been coughing for 6 days. After 2 PDs, and a cough mixture, his dry cough has turned to wet. He has puked on my bed twice! It felt like I was swimming in his vomit that night, eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. But poor baby, today he didn't wake up with a smile. It was my fault! For not pulling out that toy he was gumming! It must have contained millions of germs that was harmful. AAARRGGHHH!!!! If only I can turn back the clock, then he won't be awaken by his own cough middle of the night. This is the 1st time Daniel is so sick. Sigh... the sign that most of my antibodies (from umblibical cord) is used up (quoted by Dr. Tham from Puteri Hospital).
