Jaundice again.....

It was such a relief when Dr Heng’s clinic called yesterday evening to inform us that Yee Sinn’s Jaundice is due to breastmilk and not poor liver function. Breastmilk Jaundice is harmless and I was encouraged to continue nursing her as long as I can.

I became a Panda today due to the lack of sleep last night. Yee Sinn was down with fever because of her vaccination. We had to dunk her in a tub of tap water after we failed to bring her fever down by sponging. Haiz… she wailed herself crazy when we stripped her down. After getting used to the water temperature, she had gave those pitiful “eh eh eh” cry while in the tub. It almost brought tears to my eyes seeing baby suffering.

She is much better today though she slept quite a bit in the morning after her usual bath. Guess it must be the cool rainy weather. Mummy will be going to la-la land soon for a nap too. Zzzz....
