Diarrhea

Can't believe I'm posting about diarrhea after constipation but well, they happened to different kids.. so.. JY was down with diarrhea yesterday. Not sure if it was the addition of a tiny bit of avocado in his oat cereal that caused it or something else.. might have been due to teething.. but he pooped 5 times yesterday and granny asked me to bring him to the Dr.

I thought to bring him to the clinic opposite mum's since at 4plus, Most clinics have stopped their PM sessions and that clinic had a evening session between 1900 - 2030. So I gobbled up my light dinner and prepared to make a visit across the road. I had called a couple of times but no one picked up! Irritatingly, the Dr put a note to say it had closed at 1940! Hubby had seen the Dr open awhile before that and of all times it had to close after my boy woke from his nap n gave a lil poo!

Arghh.. we hurried home and rushed to go TMC instead as Dr Tan at L6 was open til 2000 for the last registration. But we reached at 2004 and the nurses hae closed the desk. Hurumppphhh... We trudged down to l1 24-hour clinic instead.. got some powder meds and probiotics powder, plus anti nausea ones in case. When collecting meds, I then remembered to ask the nurse about diluting his milk feed and was told to stop his regular milk! She gave me some Similac total comfort samples instead to give JY for the time being, at least for 2 days.. and offer solids like white bread, porridge, steamed fruits in place of milk. She said some babies might even be sensitive with soy milk..

Thankfully, everything is fine now. But will still watch his diet for the next few days..

The past few weeks have been going to Dr visits, tiring on the senses and pocket.. hopefully the kids stay healthy and accident-free...
