I am back!

Iden has been sick for almost a week. His fever and cough started last Thursday. The fever has subsided but he is still having a slight cough now.

It was worst last week. We could hear the phlegm in his throat trying to force its way out of Iden's mouth but being swallowed in again. I was so tempted at times to put my finger into his mouth and make him vomit the phlegm out.

Then, my mum introduced me a powder for Infantile Eliminating Phlegm. It had been proven to help baby with cough. Seeing that the western medicine prescribed by his pd is not effective, I decided to let Iden try the powder. After two days of powder, we are relieved that Iden's condition has improved.

I just want to thank my mum, sisters and mother-in-law for providing me with the support and advice during this period. Their experiences really tide me through this tough time. I also want to express my gratitude to my friend, Evelyn, who has been around to provide advice to me on child illnesses. Last but not least, a big thank you to all those mummies in Baybsupplies Forum. Thank you for your concern. You know who you are.

At last, the mischievous laughter is here again and Iden is back!
