Sick Vernon

Sigh, my baby Vernon has been down with nose infection (cold) and skin infection (rashes). He is not his usual self during sleep time - more unsettled and seems to have difficulty breathing. Making noises and crying periodically. Intially, I am still grumbling that he has become naughty, but i guess i have blamed him wrongly. He is sick.

He has to take many doses of different medicine. Drops into his tiny mouth and drops into his small nose nostril. It pains his daddy alot whenever he cries in discomfort having the nose drops. We have to coax him for at least half an hour for the medicine to settle in. I think next time i will be the mummy that carries the whip, while daddy is the one that defends/shields him.

This smart boy also knows how to spit out the antibiotics drop that we put into his mouth using the syringe. Every single drop. We have to continue to do this for the next 7 days. Hope he really recovers well.

Come to think of it, he is sick only after 2 weeks. Baby is so vulnerable and we really have to take good care of him.
