Xiao Niu Getting Better

yes, xiao niu finally getting better. after a trip to the doc today, she was diagnosed with stomach flu. she has been given medicine to drink before her meals. doc says dat she still has jaundice, so has to keep sun tanning for another 2 weeks at least. but nonetheless, at least we know wad is happening to her, so now we can be at ease that she should be recovering. she was blessed… :)

Xiao Niu is Sick?

xiao niu could have fallen sick, we dont know. as far as we know of her condition, she has vomitted milk for 4 times on sunday afternoon, tues nite and today morning twice. so in the end, we had no choice but to send her for checkup at baby’s GP. we dun even know wad happened to her as she looks fine to us every time after having her meals. and she sleeps quite well after her meals too. only when she wakes up and gets rdy to have her next meal, then she vomits. i have only known it for sunday and tuesday ones, as for this morning vomitting, i am not very sure whether it is before her meal. but hopefully the GP will diagnose properly and give proper treatment. let’s help to pray for her healthy return…

Interesting Facts About Xiao Niu (2)

her meals are quite normal, and interestingly, she has a special type of information for us before her meals. After she wakes up from her sleep, she will ‘biow’ around to see see the surrounding and make a few interval noises. then we will be waken up by her little noises. then either one of us  will proceed to test her by touching her lips and see her reaction. if she tries to lick the finger, that means she wants to drink milk. however, there is a certain deadline like 5mins before she starts to cry for the milk. so within this timing, i will make the milk and then either one of us will feed her. then if she finish the milk already, we proceed to plan (a), if not, we proceed to plan (b). either one of the plan we will make her burp.

Plan (a)
after burping, if she is still slightly awake, we could assume that she would fall aslp in a few mins and we will put her on the bed to do whatever she wants to do. (basically she will stretch here n there, stare here n there and then finally fall aslp) if she still awake after more than 5-10mins, then there is a problem. we shall then proceed to plan (c).

Plan (b)
if she did not finish the milk and we finish burping, its either she is full or she is doing BIG business… oh well, big business means we have to proceed to plan (c), else will be plan (d).

Plan (c)

ok, we will try to keep her still while checking out her pampers to see whether there is any poo poo or not. if yes, then we will help her to clean up and change the pampers. if not, then we will proceed to plan (e).

Plan (d)
if she is full and no matter how we try to incite her to drink, then it means she is FULL. so we will let her rest on the bed until either she falls aslp or else she does her BIG business… oh well, if so, it means plan (c) again~

Plan (e)
according to ‘internal reports’, if she sleeps after changing of pampers, then we sleep. no disturbance and the next feeding time will be ard 3-4 hours. if she doesnt go to slp and is still wide awake after the change, then we will proceed to plan (f)…

Plan (f)
this shall be the final plan we have… to feed her again with the left over milk… ok sorry, this is not the final plan :P if she doesnt want the milk, it is either she is full and is just playing mischief by staying awake or else it means she wants warm milk… plan (g)!

Plan (g)
very simple, i help to make another bottle of warm milk for her loh.. after this drinking, she is supposed to be slping liao. and if she slps, it will be ard 3-4 hours later before she have her next meal…

after showing u all the plans that we have, would u like to sign up for either one of it? they are free for u. :) but after telling u all the plan and ‘accidentally’ saying that xiao niu gt pattern one, in front of her. she changed her plan immediately the nx feed! oh well… luckily onli for once, haha… :P

The Dark Knight
