Oh No....HFMD?

After limiting Jia Hui from outdoor activities such as swimming, playground, deferring her entry to childcare & etc, I was told by hubby on my way back to fetch Jia Hui that she had a fever in the afternoon & mil had brought her to see Doc in the afternoon. Asked hubby what did the Doc said but he mentioned that mil only said fever and Jia Hui had taken her medicine.....

When I saw Jia Hui sitting in her car seat, she still look as cheerful... sucking on her pacifier.... used my hand to feel her head & it was quite hot.... measured her temperature & it was 37.5 degree celsius.... after having dinner and playing for a while, Jia Hui fell asleep...

Then in the middle of the night, I wake up & decided to take her temperature again & I got a shocked as her fever had hit 38.7 degree celsius.... her whole body was so hot... after feeding her milk, decided to feed her medicine but after taking her medicine, Jia Hui keeps coughing till she vomitted out..... so quickly bring her to the bathroom to clean her up & change into new clothes... after that, she fell asleep again....

The next morning, we went to see Dr Gabriel Seow (Jia Hui's doc since birth)..... reached there @ 8am & we are 3rd in the Q...... . told Dr Seow abt Jia Hui's fever & he do some check... check on her ears (to see if got an infection), luckily no infections, checked on her hands & legs... nothing too... but when Doc checked on her mouth, Doc spotted a few ulcers on her tongue.... was so kan cheong that asked Doc "is it HFMD?" but doc said maybe one of the virus & prescribe some anti virus medicine to build up Jia Hui's immunity system to fight off the virus.....

After that, I quickly smsed Kelly & Doris to ask more on HFMD..... luckily Jia Hui did not kena HFMD cos her fever did went down after taking the fever & anti-virus medicine, there are no spots on her hands & legs... only 2-3 ulcers on her tongue... & she is well on Sunday..... Think this is the best Mother's Day present for me as no HFMD...
