You woke up early again this morning. And you seemed grouchy and fretful. Then mummy touched your forehead and you felt warm. Oh no... asked daddy to touch you, but he wasn't too sure. So we took the thermometer (the mercury one, as Dr Mary said this one is more accurate. Sadly this means it takes longer as we need to put it under your arms for more than 1 minute!) to take your temperature. Your reaction? Scream should and yell and cry like you were being tortured while we attempted to take your temperature! Sigh..
And verdict was: Yup, you had a fever. Since you wouldn't let mummy get ready for work, and it was almost 8am already, daddy got ready and he had to carry you down while mummy got ready. Of course I could hear you protesting all the way down and longer! We had to give you Paracetamol and since it's been a long time since you have taken medicine, you screamed like mad again. And you did so the other 2 times after that too.
Thankfully your appetite was normal when mummy and daddy went back to see you during lunch time. And it was also alright during dinner time. You slept well after the last dose of Paracetamol and your fever subsided. Poor little thing..
