Measles in my Small Chubby











We went to Putrajaya the Hot Air Balloon Event in Putrajaya last 2 week. Aww..I think it was too hot for my small chubby that he came back with fever. On that night itself his fever subsided but then it came back again in the middle of the nigth.
We proceed to send him to Pantai Hospital Cheras and got his blood tested. The results only showed positive for Viral Fever and ruled out the Dengue Fever. Finally the next week, we saw red spots mushrooming all over his body and became more prominent at his face area. My mother said it was Measles and it would practically take few days to emerge.
During this period of time, he was cranky and tend to withdrawn in his mood. The worst part is he doesnt want to feed on water where he is already avoiding milk. Slowly we coaxed him and gave him so bread to munch on and that really slimmed him down.
Smally chubby started recovering and slowly gaining back his momentum to play and eat and sleep soundly as usual. Phew...few weeks back was my Big Chubby with HFM and then now Small Chubby with Measles. Yeap..this will be the part and parcel of kids growing up and be there for them when they need you the most. Hope my 2 chubbies will grow up healthy thru out their years.
p/s: above is the some of the pics of my small chubby after he recovered from measles. the 1st pic was abit crappy in quality taken with my i-phone.

2 Chubbies





Its been more than 1 month since my last post. My chubs is now 2yrs 4 mths old and 11 mths old. 1 week ago, big chubby started to have blisters around his feet and we thought it might due his habit of wandering out of the house at the porch. Then it doubled from 2-4 blisters and keep spread to both of his feet. Doctor then diagnosed it as Hand Foot Mouth Disease. There is no medication for this and will slowly fade off within a week time. His appetite was also affected and tend to be cranky. Luckily he only had a mild fever and that went off the next day.
He is getting better now and have some running nose and inevitable that my small chubby "inherited" his germs and have running nose as well. But both of them is doing fine and sick sick please go away.
