This is Reagan 's first Chinese New Year celebration with us, however he was down with fever, cough and flu, the ultimate triple combo virus.I blamed it on the unpredictable weather these few days and also his daddy whom I believed that Reagan might have caught the virus from him. With a bad cough, running nose and thick phlegm stuck in his throat, he showed much discomfort and was not at all in his good mood and best behaviour this CNY week. In almost every of his photos taken, his eyes were welling up with tears and mucus dripping down his nose.
Baby Reagan's first "Lo Hei"
Baby Reagan gets to receive angbows...but he seems more interested in the oranges..
It's not as easy feat to take a good family picture with a sick and cranky baby...but we tried and this is the best we can get..
On the 3rd day of the CNY, our baby boy's fever subsided but we still have to battle with his cough and running nose. He would struggle and cry hysterically each time we attempt to force-feed him with his medicine or to wipe his dripping mucus away. However his mood was much better today, at least he smiles again when we talk or sing to him now.
And because he has also been vomiting his meals out during his cough fits, he lost nearly a kg and looked even more malnourished. When he recovers, I promised to invest more time and effort in researching for recipes and preparing his food personally. Hope to "fatten" him up before his 1st birthday.
Mommy and daddy understand you are crying because you are uncomfortable and upset over the awful virus-attack. Our heart aches each time you cough uncontrollably until you spew vomit out from your mouth and nose . We know you will get well soon...love you always, our darling boy.
