first fever and its the varicella!

salut mes amis

Ok, when you have a blog for your kids , you mainly want to write about significant things that had happened to them right. so when your child got her first fever , it is kind of an important infantile history especially when that fever was caused by CHICKEN POX!
that's what happened to Sarah  :(
on friday night of January 18th, i noticed there were 3 small serous filled vesicles on sarah's scalp, forehead and abdomen respectively. Harris also had the same vesicles , one at the groin region and 2 at the knee.
my initial thought was how one earth my babies got infected by moluscum contagiasum ? ( the clear serous vesicles really looks like MC!)
then suddenly when we woke up the next day there were like more than dozen new lesions erupted. Oh my , could't believe sarah contracted varicella zoster infection at this age!
she started to develop fever by day 4 of lesion and she was miserable for 3 days :( so did Harris. poor babies.
but they recovered well.  at this moment they still have  the residual scarring ,i just hope they wont be permanent. huhu.

Sarah's new room

so much to say about our lovely little sarah :)

She is really the apple of my eye.

her first social smile was as early as 5 weeks old, and she has started cooing and squeal with delight by 7 week old !

when we weighed her at 9 week old , she was 6.2 Kilos. thriving so fast!

she doesn't like drinking my breast milk from the bottle. so it was quite a challenge when I am away. I'm sorry little angel but mommy has to work :(

oh her room is probably my favorite part of  our new house. perhaps it's more like Sarah themed room rather than sarah's room for now :P i don't have the recent picture of her room in my mobile phone. i'll post her day bed later ;)




 and oh , by the end of my maternity leave i  managed to stock about 45 bottles/bags of EBM  for little sarah. I have started working since 4 days ago. so far she's doing well, though she doesnt like being fed with the artificial teats.. haiihh sarah. you're adorable, mommy misses you dearly much from my workplace!

Sarah got jabbed

yesterday sarah went for her first health clinic visit  to get her 1 month old vaccination ( hep b second dose). She was 1 month and 2 days old ( day 33) .

 She was sleeping most of the time  and continued to sleep prior to the jab despite various effort to wake her up!She cried briefly the minute the vaccine was injected into her right thigh muscle and continued her beautiful sleep right after the needle was out.tough girl you are ! ;)

She is thriving really well. By now she is 4.6 Kg ( she was 4 kg by day 21) , 54 cm in length and her head circumference is 37 cm.
I also have begun pumping  to prepare for her milk stock once I start working soon. managed to get 15 bottles so far (about 4-5 oz in each bottle). each session lasted 10 to 15 minutes. hope to get a freezer full of  EBM by the end of this three month leave ;)

mes enfants - getting cozy yesterday after the clinic visit
