Aralyn's temp went up to a high of 37.4 degree today. To make things worse for a 1st timer mummy, she kept crying and fussing even after doing all the things that will normally soothe her or make her go to sleep with a snap of the fingers. She was hot and at times cold and broke out in cold sweat. When she cries, I cry. It was worrying and heart breaking.
She started fussing last night when I was out to attend a dinner. Daddyhan said she refuses to sleep after her milk feed. She could have been missing me, or either that, she was already unwell.
Brought her to a pd after daddyhan rushed home early. By then, she was back to normal. No more fever and was in the healthy 36ish range. Pd commented that she is heavy for her age(again!),"she is double than what she shld be". Now, at 10 weeks, she is 61cm long and 6.22kg. No wonder my back aches so much after carrying her! Even my right arm is sporting a lil bump!
