Alyssa's first low grade fever
Yesterday after work, Cory, Alyssa and I went out to eat. When I took her out of the car seat, I thought she felt warm-ish.
"Maybe it's me who is cold..." I thought. I did get the car air condition fixed.
Post dinner, all gluttoned out... I put Alyssa into her car seat and felt her forehead... Warm... Warmer then normal.... Beep beep beep beep...! Mommy radar alert! Took out her forehead thermometer and checked her temp on the spot. Yes, I admit, I carry her forehead thermometer EVERYWHERE! Her digital ones are at home. Yes, I have 2 digital ones :P One for me and one for her (i.e. oral and rectal). I can go on with the uses of rectal thermometer but I digress...
She has a low grade fever. My poor chi chi... Cory speculates that it's due to her teething since she didn't have any shots recently. Me? I think it's a slight cold since she coughed and sneezed on and off.
So here I am at past midnight, reaching for my poor baby who couldn't for the life of her settle down to sleep in her crib for longer then a few minutes. After a couple of hours of that I gave up and told Cory to hand her over. He obviously resist :P Daddy's little girl la, katakan... But I cannot stand that she woke up so often that I asked for her. I checked her breathing and lo and behold... she seems congested.
Kan Mommy dah kata.... I might not spend most of my time with Alyssa due to work @#$$% but I try to tune in to her when I get back.... Mwahahaha... Childish but mommy 1 daddy 0 :P. Daddy was right...
Right now she seems settled. She is sleeping better... on mommy's pillow. And mommy is at laptop, looking over to her every few minutes to make sure she is breathing ok, prop up the way she is.. Poor sayang mommy... she picked up a bug when we went to the doctor for daddy's aches and pain despite all the precaution that we took when we went there. Or maybe my mommy brought home the bug from Seremban... Must investigate what happened...
Can you tell that I am obsessed? As many has said to me, "First child.... like that la..."
