Baby is Sick!!! 13 Apr '09

Ashlynn was down with fever since sunday morning. This morning, the fever reached a high 38.5 degree celcius, so I decided to take child mc and bring her to the doctor. Granny wanted to accompany us but I told her no need as I think I can handle on my own, especially now she can walk.

We reached the clinic at about 10am but was told that we had to wait 1.5 hrs. Thank goodness our girl was cooperative throughout the wait.

This was what we did:

On the car, she was bright and cheery :)
Most of the shops were not opened. So we walked around and put her in a Thomas the Train joy ride while I rested my arm. Told her that "Come, mummy carry", she waved her arm to tell me no no. I think she still wanted to play. Nevertheless, I carried her out. Lucky she did not create a din like the previous time. Maybe she is not well, so no strength to protest.

We walked around and I spotted starbucks, so I went in to have my mid-morning caffeine fix. I read magazines while she self-entertained. Really felt like a tai tai (low class one) for once.

We went to FOX to look around then I even brought her to the Ladies. I chose the handicap cubicle so that she has room to roam about. Next, we went to Cold Storage and lastly more joy rides.

Erm... She is not smiling at me, but to a man who passed by.

Last ride before we left for the clinic.

In the clinic, she played in the toy house while waiting for her turn. Think she enjoyed being inside. Kept peering out at others, trying to get attention.

The doc said should not be dengue fever as she is still active. The fever will probably take a few days to subside. By thur if it is still there or if rashes develops, then we have to bring her back for a blood test.

Some updates: She is 9.15 kg now and her 1st molar is emerging.
