Daddyhan noticed she curls up(in squat position) every now and then when we carry her and suspect she could be suffering from stomach discomfort.
I honestly thot she juz felt irritated and didnt wanna be carried.
She puked 3 times in the day, each time after her milk feed. Well, if you put one n one together, it does seems like grastic flu isnt it?
We decided to bring her to KK hospital.
It wasnt a long wait and the staff there was actually pretty nice. Not all, but most of them anyway. While waiting for our turn to see the doc, she puked on me again. This time it was only water for she had refused milk earlier on.
The doc whom we saw today, tho very much younger than the one yesterday, is MUCH more knowledgeable. He explained what we needa know and he told us other than gastric flu, the Brufen for her high fever could be the cause for her stomach upset too.
Come to think of it, shes been acting up only after taking Brufen yesterday.
=(
Was given something to make her tum tum better and so far, it seems to helped a little. She is still waking up every 15mins or so, crying. So far I have administered 3 doses of the med and Im not really sure if its making her a whole lot better.
Daddyhan and I have discussed on the option of not gg for the trip tmr. It seems like the best option now, coz we're worried that her condition might worsen. However, if we dun go, we will have to forfeit the entire amt paid for the cruise, which to me, is alot. I know my daughter's well being shld come above everything, but still, its a big sum.
I think we might go ahead with the trip, assured by the fact that there is a medical center on board. A cruise liner this big shld have adequate facilities to oversee most problems right? I certainly hope so. It sounds so selfish for us to do this, but we're really hoping that the situation might get better even with us onboard as the doc did mentioned that it will take a few days for the bugs to go away.
As Im typing this, she've already cried a few times. Looks like if it doesnt gets any better, we shld just forget abt the holiday.
