Yay :) baby dylan is back from NUH!!! poor boy has been a resident in ward 48 room 1 in nuh since sat night after we brought him to emergency nuh. They diagnosed his condition as UTI. urinary tract infection as he also had a fever, and lotsa white blood platelets in his pee. ....he was finally admitted at 11.50 pm, after which , docs put an IV in him , took pee samples, put a tube thru his penis and collected so called more sterile pee, and blood test. he was under trauma for ard 40 minutes while mummy paced up and down outside the room , admist his screams and cries, cause of the pain and it also coincides with his bedtime, and finally mummy couldnt take it and went into the room, despite doctors telling her it;s better to go out. docs there are so young, my gawd, one other patient had to suffer like 6 times cause the young doc could not find an entry point for the IV.She had bruises all over after that . so heart pain. anyway.....all that was a fiasco. it was a false alarm. it was not UTI after all, just that his body did suffer a viral infection and that;s why there are white platelets in his pee. Kidney ultrasound also showed that all was fine. Mummy just have to monitor him closely after this episode and should there be any similar symptoms, have to bring dylan back for a more thorough checkup.

din have proper sleep thru the nights cause i had to sleep beside dylan on the teeny weeny bed, i had to lie on my left and could not turn cause if i do so, i will fall onto the floor. haha. luckily i am a skinny mom. the worst was on the 2 night when i put dylan on my chest for 3 hours! cause i din want him to wake up while the nurse came in at 2 am to feed antibiotics through his IV. poor boy already had enought trauma.

:) thanks gal. ya---health is the best gift, funny and good thing was he forgot about the incident the next day. The other babies were worst, apparently they couldnt sleep in the night and cried more often.

btw, i bought the mini hand impression thingy , hehe, but couldnt do it cause dylan just wont keep still, so i decide to do it later. sayang hor.
