This is Baby C on the day before her discharge from the hospital. Putting her on the sofa-bed for her to practise walking can really cheer her up and put a big smile on her face.
My Stay In The Hospital With Baby C
For 6 days, I’ve been feeling really sluggish… with fever, lots of phlegm, cough, a throbbing head and a runny nose. Despite having finished my antibiotics and meds, I am still feeling under the weather. My skin is also very dry and the skin round my mouth and nose is red, dry and painful…. caused…
Nutrients Drips
Today is the 5th day that my poor baby has not eaten any solid or semi-solid food. Some of the things that have been going into her tummy via her mouth are Vitamin C syrup, paracetamol syrup, anti bladder spasm meds, some breast milk, Cactus juice and water. That’s about it and my poor baby…
Nasal Gastric Tube
When Baby C puked non-stop, well, like every half-hourly, though in small amounts, our doctor inserted a nasal gastric tube through her nostrils. The tube goes into her tummy. Our doctor then aspirated the gas out from her tummy through the tube. Each time she felt like puking, the nurse would aspirate out the gas…
Baby C’s Post Surgery
This is how my poor baby looked like yesterday… with tubes everywhere on her body – 4 tubes coming out from her tummy, one on her hand for the IV and one nasal gastric tube on her nose that gets connected to a bottle. My little trooper kept moving about and the bunch of tubes…
Organic Seaweed, Grains & Mixed Vegetables
I bought a bottle of organic dried seaweed, grains and mixed vegetables from the organic shop the other day. I meant to buy it for Baby C, to sprinkle them on her porridge. On reading the label, I decided not to give it to her as it contains organic raw sugar and organic sea salt. The…
Cystoscopy For Baby C
We were informed by our pediatric surgeon that he needs to perform a procedure called cystoscopy on Baby C on the day of the surgery. That procedure is required in order for the surgeon to properly diagnose where the problem is before he performs the ureter reimplantation surgery. I did a google search on cystoscopy…
Colorful Meal
I double boiled some beet root + chicken soup for Baby C the other day. She loved the soup to bits. Here’s her colorful dinner: Porridge with purple sweet potato, pumpkin, organic purple cabbage, fish, pork and garlic; beet root soup and E.Excel’s Nutrifresh. Double boiled organic beet root with chicken breast soup. The soup…
Lean Food Premium Organic Yoghurt
This is the organic blueberry yoghurt that I bought for Baby C. It’s a tad sour and my sweetie-pie didn’t like it. I had to put some homemade pineapple jam to sweeten the yoghurt. But I really like this yoghurt, especially the mango flavored one. This yoghurt is really smooth and has generous amount of…
Baby C’s Breakfast
This is Baby C’s breakfast today: Freshly squeezed orange juice, Millenium cactus juice with probiotics, organic blueberry yoghurt, hard-boiled egg yolk mashed with avocado, some crushed Pureen baby biscuits and a dollop of unsalted butter. I find that the organic blueberry yoghurt by Lean Food (made in Australia) a tad sour for Baby C’s liking….
