A more active Aidan after his long nap..

My poor baby still has diarrhea *arghh* [u guys must be sick of me writing about this now]..I think Aidan has kiew chwee a little since the start of it..He was pretty grouchy too and still very fidgetive when I try to nurse him direct. He was a little feverish too with temp of @37.5%..He hardly slept for the whole day till after his evening feed, when I laid him on the cot to lie down for a while, with a pillow propping him up and voila..he fell asleep just like that. Poor baby must have been really exhausted.

I'd changed to a soy-based formula since his lunch feed but there's been no change..he's still having watery stools

..but I guess it's too early to tell whether his purging is because he is allergic to lactose. My part-time maid, Lorna says that sometimes, when a baby's teething, it may cause diarrhea too. Used my fingers to circle his mouth..nope, no sign of teeth. *arghh*..Feel really bad for him..Really hope he recovers soon.

He hardly smiled the entire day :(

In deep sleep..

Don't worry..I didn't use flash when I took these pics..

Current Mood: worried

poor Aidan

Awww hope the little one recovers soon. Must be really hard looking after a baby, let alone one who's not feeling well. Take care too, don't fall sick!
He looks like he's got some lipstick on his pouty lips..

Re: poor Aidan

Aidan's not that hard to look after even though he's sick..At least he doesn't cry non-stop and all..He just looks pissed and growls alot that's all..He's really a sweet baby.
Thanks for ur concern..and yeah, I love his lips too!

Times when our babies are sick, we wish we could do everything in the world to make them
better again...
Times like this, I wished I had studied harder to be a doctor so I know exactly what's wrong with my child.

get well!

hi Angie,
so sorry to read abt lil' Aidan still hvg the runs. u must be very heart pain right now! did yr paed recommend Pedialyte? it's stg to replenish fluids esp'y if Aidan is not drinking enough milk. maybe time to get the Isis in yr kitchen cabinet to work again? a bit of hard work but mommy's milk is the best for the lil' one to get well. i hv some links on this. lmk if u want them! then again, think u'll get info overload. take care, take care. poor lil' Aidan, get well soon!
hugs,
lily

Re: get well!

Am using Nursoy...Will try it for awhile and monitor his condition first. If it really doesn't improve, I will then bring him to the paed again. She'd told me over the fone to change to soy formula u see..
Yeah..will try pumping if he still rejects..So far, I've sorta been 'force-breastfeeding' him..he'll suckle..but v reluctantly..*sigh*

That's the problem..I dunno whether he's in pain or not..I really wish I can understand his growling..

I think his diarrhea is still considered 'mild' coz he poops abt 4-5 times per day..I'm just trying everything tts recommended and if he doesn't improve, I'll bring him back to the paed..(am tryin to avoid the hospital too , u see)..

Nah..I really havent been doing much..just taking care of him as a mom. He sleeps, I come online..he wakes..i go cuddle n play with him :)

Yes, poor Aidan, do get well soon. (Actually, from the top photo, he seems to have grown a fair bit, lengthwise.)

Btw, what's this abt not using flash? Is it that harmful for the babies?

Apr. 25th, 2003 05:18 am (UTC)

Actually, he isn't that tall yet..only 62 cm..OCA & Ryan are both much taller than him although he's the oldest amongst the 4-monther babies..Width wise..he has grown tho *grin*..

Oh..am just sayin that I'm trying to avoid flashing him that much since he ain't feeling well..

even without smiling he's still very cute... try pumping your milk and see if he'll take it. it's bound to be better than the Nursoy anyway.

He did take a fair bit of my bm this morning..I'd just had to push his head back each time he moved to suckle his fingers ..at least it wasn't as tough as the previous day..
Yeah..I will try the pump if it gets really bad..
But the thing is..I tend to nurse him to sleep in the day so now, it means that he'll sleep less :(

Yah it's a good idea to pump, BM will help in the diarrhea as it got anti-bacteria properties! Wonders of bm...
