Both kids had their checkup and jabs done last Thursday (23 April). 

ER

He went first.

Weight: 9.1kg

Height: 79 cm (to be confirmed)

Head Circumference: 46cm (to be confirmed)

His weight remains at 10% (gradual drop from 75% since he started eating), height at 25%. Dr Lee was concerned because for a boy, he's small. I'm quite relieved he's doing far better than AN at this age. I checked her booklet and she was 5.9kg at 18 months!

Dr suggested he gets at least 500mls of milk each day. He gets only 120mls on average (not including milk he gets from me because I don't know how much he drinks). And she suggests I switch him to Pediasure.

My 2 tiny kids make me a loyal customer of Pediasure.

He cried during the jabs for a short while but reminded us of the pain for the remaining of the day with "pain pain" and pointing to those plasters.

AN

Weight: 13.7kg

Height: 107cm

Dr Lee is pleased with AN's growth. She had always been a 3% baby and still is. Her height had been at 25% for a long time but during the checkup, it's gone up, approaching 50%. Dr Lee assures that AN is growing well.

So, it's just ER I have to work on.

AN started crying at the sight of the jab. She didn't sound like she was sincerely terrified. In fact, she sounded like she was making herself cry. -_____-"

She was sobbing and trying to look at what Dr Lee was doing with the syringe and she didn't even realised when Dr put the needle into her thigh. She was still looking out for the syringe. She then stopped sobbing because it didn't really hurt. It probably did soon after because, like Dr Lee said, the medicine travelling into her body may cause some aches.

She won't have a fever till a week later and it's going to be high fever.

It's a week now and no fever yet. AN doesn't usually get fevers after her jabs. Thank God.

Let's hope the fever doesn't come in the next few days.
