feverissshhh!

it was thursday afternoon. my body was warmer than usual. mom took my temp and was surprised that it was at 100.6F. yes, i had fever. my first time at that. i didn't feel normal that day but i still thrived to be a happy one. i still wanted to play but i just wanted to be held. i was too clingy, to put it into mom's words. i also felt tired that i wanted to just sleep.

my temp did not get any better even with all the cool washcloth wipes that mom provided. mom then called the nurse triage from st. als. they instructed mom not to give me tylenol if my temp is less than 102 and to bring me in the next day. but then my temp kept on increasing and even jumped to 102.9! 1.5hrs after they gave me tylenol my fever went down to 101.

this afternoon, we went to see the pediatrician. i was still feverish around morning at 100.4. even before we checked in though, i was already fever-free. nonetheless, dr. tubach still saw us. after the routine check-up, she informed my parents that i didn't have any ear infection (mom's initial suspect) nor throat problems. thanks God. her initial diagnosis was that i might have gotten a viral infection (not sure what strain) that's been common around these days which could explain the change in color in my poop (and probably the clogged nose?).

i still have colds (i got this one on monday after easter). and it helps if my parents use the aspirator and/or the saline drops whenever my nose is stuffy. but i still hate it! like what mom said, i was like a pig being slaughtered whenever they apply saline drops on or aspirate me. and since i am that strong (even dr. tubach affirmed that, when she was trying to check my throat and nose), at least two persons are needed just to get that sticky mucus out of my nose. heehee

well, teething or not, viral infection or not, "lagnat-laki" or what, i am just thankful that my parents are with me and are constantly showering me with lots of tlc. now, i am soooo back and looking forward to be in my kulit-mode again! ;)
