Fever, fever go away!
It has been some scary weeks, with one by one kids having fever at home. It first started with Korkor, then it goes to QQ.
Not ordinary fever this round, but it went up as high as 39-41C, and nothing could make it come down. Paracetamol fails, stronger Nurofen fails, suppository fails, and even sponging fails. With Korkor I was dead worried since nothing brought the fever down. But it goes off by itself on the 3rd morning, when I was about to bring him back to the paed for 2nd diagnose.
The heat then went to QQ and it went up as high as 41C for almost 3 days too. Since nothing brings the fever down, I stop giving her suppository after about 5 continuous doses and instead just relying on light paracetamol, and frequent sponging and day and evening shower.
Thank God they are all fine now (QQ fully recovered yesterday). Now I am looking forward to their mini birthday celebrations in June.
Coming up:
First Saturday (5 June 2010): QQ will be holding a simple Princess Tea Party for just 5 girls of her choice
Last Saturday (26 June 2010): Party for boys? Hmm….don’t feel like doing it. Perhaps only some red eggs for them?
Glad that your kids recovered from that very high fever. Really scary when it goes up so high and medications does not work.
Glad to hear that all 3 of them are well now. Due to the current weather, we tend to fall sick easily..
Oh the poor things. Must had been quite hard on you too. Take care yah!
poor kiddos. glad they are back to their old self again. darn bad virus going around eh?
oh dear.. dat is very very high! thank goodness they are all ok now.. take care..
Speedy recovery ya!
Glad to know the kids have fully recovered.
Take good care of yourself too.
Glad to know that they have fully recovered.
With my boy, his fever normally lasts for 3 days, only after the 3rd day and the fever is still persistent, then I will bring him to see paed.
Phew! Glad they’ve fully recovered. And mummy must have been so stressed… Now can start preparing for QQ’s birthday party
