Went for my 2nd checkup at FMGC today.
Bunny dear is sucking thumb and dancing/moving around happily today. This is the first time i see for my own eyes that baby is actually swimming inside me! The experience is so good!
Bunny dear is supposed to be 10 weeks but the scan shows that baby is 12 weeks hence my EDD is revised to 14 Oct 2011 instead. Since i am now in my 12 weeks, i took the Down Syndrome test as well. Keeping my finger cross that the results will be fine.
What a relieve to see baby growing so well.

Fever again
Moo moo is down with fever again. I had really ran out of idea why she falls sick so often. She had just recover from her previous illness and finished her last dose of antibiotic last Monday!
She had just started to eat more and had finally gain back a few pounds. We had take precautions to make sure that she doesn't catch the flu bug due to the rainy season. To my horror, early this morning, i feel the heat again.
She wake up merrily this morning even before i wake her up. She finishes her 71/2 ounce of milk and enjoy the TV show. She is doing extremely well this whole morning except the heat in her. I checked her temperature before sending her to the baby sitter and it shows that she is 38c.
Baby sitter called me up in the afternoon and told me that Moo Moo is 38.4c and refuse to eat porridge for lunch. She just took a few bites of meat.
I had google the web just to check whether there's any toddler out there that had similar condition with Moo Moo and it seems that one of the reason is middle ear infection. Should i take moo moo to the ENT for checkup? Her paed had always treat her as having viral infection. Should i change moo moo's milk to a better one? She seems to fall sick more often after changing to this milk powder.
I had to decide fast.

MooMoo down with sickness again
Little Moo Moo is down with sickness again.
She had not been sleeping well for the past few days. Waking up middle of the night crying without any reason.
On Tuesday night, i saw a slight dot of yellowish discharged in her eyes and i said to myself "Maybe she is just heaty". Wednesday morning. Moo Moo wake up with both her eye lids glued together by the yellowish discharged. She cried like mad when i try to wipe her eyes with a wet cloth. She didn't sleep well either the whole Wednesday afternoon as she cannot breath smoothly.
Bring her to the doctor at night. The doctor said that it is not eye infection. It is caused by the bacteria due to her flu and had since spread to her eyes. The doctor prescribe Moo Moo with eye drops and flu medicine.
It's really hard to put eye drops into a toddler. After so many tries, we only managed to put 1 drop each to both eyes instead of the recommended 2 drops. I even tried to put the eye drops while she is asleep and yet she felt uncomfortable with it.
Moo Moo didn't sleep well again on Wednesday night however, the yellow discharged is lesser this morning. Really had no idea how to make my girl healtier. She is really very pron to sickness since the past few months.

Moo Moo was down with high fever and cough on Friday night. Gave her cough medicine and paracetamol to control her condition. However, she cough very badly especially during night time and she is very scared of vomiting.
12 March 2011 (Saturday)
Moo Moo didn't take much food the whole day. She only managed to finish half of her daily milk intake, a sausage and some bread. She vomited 4 times this the morning due to the phlegm and it makes her very scared whenever she cough.
13 March 2011 (Sunday)
Brought her to the doctor again on Sunday morning. Doctor see a slight redness in her ears which might be ears infection. The bacteria must have spread to her ears! Doctor presribed her with antibiotic and cough medicine.
Current age: 2 years 1 month
Current weight: 10.9kg
Medicine dosage: Paracetamol : 4ml
Cough medicine: 2.5ml
Flu medicine: 3ml
Antibiotic: 5ml
Moo Moo seems to be feeling much better after taking the antibiotic. She even follow hubby for grocery shopping in the afternoon while i lazed around at home getting some sleep as to hope that i myself can cure from sickness as well.
Moo Moo pooed very smelly and blacked colored poo at night. It should be a good sign that she had finally discharged all the bad bacteria inside her. After the poo poo, she became very energetic and asked for food!
She slept well the whole Sunday night.
* I am lucky that i don't need to struggle when feeding my girl medicine. She is always the one who asked for medicine and will sometimes self feed.

Second Opinion
Went to consult Dr. Patrick yesterday at his new office in Jaya One. It's quite difficult to find the place if you are not familiar with the area. Thanks to my sis in law, we made it just on time for the appointment.
Dr. Patrick did a vaginal scan with me and found everything to be normal. The blood clog that i mention to him is nothing to be worried about. According to him, he thinks that it is actually a slight scratch instead of a blood clog and it will not cause any harm. I can continue with Duphaston as it is safe to be taken. However, i had make up my mind to stop taking it as my morning sickness become worst after taking the medicine.
I felt so relieve after the consultation and will definitely continue with my check up with him instead of doing it in TMC. On top of that, his fees is much much cheaper.

Duphaston ?
I am not feeling well mentally for the past days after going for the 1st check up. After browsing through the www on Duphaston, i had actually stopped taking it after taking it 4 times. I don't experience stains, blood from my vagina, cramp or felt unease throughout my 7 weeks pregnancy and i don't have a history of miscarriage. I really don't know why i was prescribed with the medication. What troubles me more is that this medication is actually not advisable to be taken after pregnancy is confirmed!
After taking Duphaston 4 times, i had the uncomfortable feelings as if my period is coming and it freaks me out. I am always on alert mood, worried that blood will flushed out of my vagina anytime of the day.
I will be seeking 2nd opinion from Dr. Patrick this coming Monday. Pray hard that everything will be fine.

Pregnancy No.2 : 1st check up at 7 weeks
I went for my 1st checkup at Tropicana Medical Center (TMC) yesterday with Dr. Dev. Menon.
TMC looks more like a hotel to me as it really don't give me the eerie feeling of being in a hospital.
I reached TMC about 10:45am. Registered myself at the registration counter. Waited about 30 minutes until a nurse attended to me asking me some personal questions and details. The nurse seems to be shocked to know that i came for my pregnancy confirmation checkup as the center focus more on the infertility issues.
Everything goes according. I had my height and weight checked. My blood pressure checked and urine checked. Everything turns out normal.
I finally meet up with Dr Menon for the very first time around 11:45am (few minutes after my supposed appointment time of 11:30am). He is a very friendly doctor and the way he talks feels good.
He did the abdominal scan and confirm that i am 7 weeks pregnant. Everything is right on track and baby is growing well. However, he found blood clog outside the sac and this troubles me a lot. He told me that it's quite normal for my age and it's mainly due to hormone. However, I became panic inside me and didn't really managed to catch what else he wanted to say after that.
I was put under medication (Duphaston, 2 table, 3 times a day for 4 weeks) and is asked to come back to see him in 4 weeks time to check on the status.
The bill ends up a whooping RM700++ . (Consultation RM180, Abdominal scan RM100, Admin charges RM3, Medication RM400+).
I can't really rest well after coming home from the medical center. I think i will opt for second opinion from Dr. Patrick Chia in coming days.
