dunno ek..so far alhamdullilah..Ziqry tak lost appetite..maintain ajer si dektu...but why not kasik more fruits (pureed/blended/ up 2 u larr)    :lol:

Just give the milk..and plain water..nanti kalau dia betoi-2 lapar..tahu larr dia carik susu. i might sound harsh..sowee nz..but i also worried kalau ziqry's milk feeds in the day is affected...so without fail, i check wat he's having daily...yupp DAILY..hehehhe..kiasu..in fact..i pre prepared his food and store in the fridge..at least cukop for 5 days. try blending some japanese keledek...just wash them..boiled...and blend..tambah air skit...try giving him...c how. the keledek is very high in vit C and naturally lemak manis...ako pun makan sambil buat 4 ziqry!  :lol:

these are some food i prepared for ziqry...

bubur nasi...blended
pear/ red apples...blende
beef...blended
pumpkin..blended
sweet potato..blended

tat's as far i cud tink for now..smua ako rebus..plain..then blend...no daun sop..cuma ikan bilis sometimes and garlic too...some peeps say garlic is a good anti oxidant and natural antibiotics plus a brain booster for u'r growing child..my gerlfren swear by it!  :lol:  ntah ek...ako tarok skita ajerr...skit ajer tau!!  :lol:

dat's wat i do 2. everyweekend i pre-prepare at least 2 dishes (my son cepat jelak) to be eaten throughout the week.

kalau baby sakit, i think as long as he drink water is fine jadi tak dehydration. kalau dia lapar nanti, pandai lah dia cari susu/makan.

[VogueMummy]

Lil Anaqin tetap makan his porridge {combination of rice, ikan bilis, carrots, potatoes - blended} 3 times a day  eventho dia sakit..alhamdulillah..

Cuma dia kurang susu..he prefers to drink plain water instead..biler da betol2 lapar baru dia abiskan susu..

Things To Do When Yr Child Is Sick (Food/Activities)

Anak anak tak seharusnya ditidurkan sepanjang masa ketika diserang demam selsema or sakit. In fact, you probably can't keep them there! Tapi kita try to avoid vigorous activity, and rest often.

Here are some suggestions for keeping your children occupied, while giving them the rest and nourishment they needed.

1. Have a Tea/Juice Party for Two
Anak anak harus banyakkan minum air ketika sakit. Cuba elakkan minum susu kerana ianya boleh memekatkan hingus.

2. Make Some Chicken Soup
Hot liquids are helpful decongestants. If you're busy, open a can of chicken broth and let your child help chop favorite veggies, such as carrots or celery, to simmer in it. Ataupun resepi yg telah disarankan oleh rakan forummers kita yg terdahulu.

3. Steam Bath
Cuba bayangkan berada di spa. Wrap anak in a warm towel and sit together on chairs in the bathroom while you run a steamy shower. The steam will moisten your child's nasal membranes, and relax you both. You can also add a capful of vapor bath (ask your pharmacist) to the tub for a mentholated steam.

4. Watch Cartoon
Ya, betul kita semua tahu it's not a good idea to let children watch too much television. Tapi bila anak sakit, activity yg begini boleh buat dia engross their mind while letting their body rest. Let your child lie on the couch, head elevated on a pillow, to watch the show. This will help drain nasal passages.

5. Make Little Things
Inilah masanya utk bermain Legos, Tinkertoys, or blocks. Ask your child to build something -- quietly -- on top of the bed, or on the living room carpet.  Carpet pun boleh mengancam kesihatan. Semestinya bersih senantiasa.

6. Sketch Pictures
A simple sketch pad and some colored pencils are all your child needs to create art without a mess. Children can even rest in bed while they draw

[minahkampung]

about the lendir thingy issue...

does syiqin sleep in air con room? i am always not so into sleeping in air con room... ;)
kalau u rub vapour rub..do u rub kat depan dada? dulu time belajar that urut thingy..the massager mentioned not to urut vapour rub kat dada directly....rub kat belah blakang.

cairkan susu skit like i mentioned before.

hydrate her well with fluids.

give her some more time. kalau tak fever...juz give the medications from the paeds doktor. mebe its a period where the flu is chronic...soon lil kenit will be fine ;)

[fiza7178]

My house & my mum house tak guna air-con................letak vapour rub tak pernah, maybe will start today to rub back nya lah. susu2 memang dah start cairkan since 1st day lagi di batuk lendir tu, till now masih tak mahu susu juga........so terpaksa me suap kasi guna sudu aje everyday.............ubat sampai dah nak habis.......should i gi minta doktor ubat lagi atau pergi berjumpa nya lagi kalau ubat dah habis tapi asyiqin masih batuk lendir till now..........tapi NO fever so far......she still active cam biasa.........makan dah nak cuma susu dia tak mahu. Kat rumah selalu me kasi plain water to her.........tak sure kalau rumah mak sama ada dia ada kasi ke tak??

the white stuffs on her tongue might cause the discomfort during feeding/eating.
kalau u've tried all that was suggested..then juz wait..for the period to be over...hopefully soon larr fiza...i know its stressful...but remember...kalau u stress...syiqin pun stres tau ;)

juz see that her food portions are not decreasing...and that she's not loosing that much of weight. u can always consult the PD kalau maseh berterusan...and ask for his opinion & estimated period of recovery.

i hope the rest also share lar kalau ada other info .. ;)

others ...u guys other 'sick menu' for the kiddoes during this period?

Ameer Firdaus having this white white thing on his tongue.. my mom ckp jgn minum air hangat2 nanti bila he drink milk from me that coz it.. its becoz kalo minum air terlalu hangat coz that..

BF is the best...but general rules is to wipe with tuala basah the toungue/mouth area to maintain cleanliness...and so that the milk tak bertepek kat lidah tu  ;D

bila masa hang kol ahh? panggil nama atau seru2...kalau sms konfirm lambat...kalau kol hp pun kena tengok waktu & tempat  ;D...kita busy...busy-BODY lar ;D

[mama_sayang]

kalau milk too hot pun can caused d 'white-white' stuff kat lidah also. btul tak MK?

aura, my baby had dat during the first few months...i've tried ubat lidah n pakai tuala basah...i went poly n asked doc n he discouraged doing these n adv me to giv my baby lots of plain water...now alhamdulillah dah hilang.

kalau baby demam, masih bole mandi kan ?
my son demam, badan nye "dedah" & panas esp kepala & leher.
mil tak kasi mandi ptg. cuma lap-lap aje.
tapi seingat i, time pegi mthly injection for polio/DPT tu nurse selalu pesan kalau anak demam bila2 masa kena "sponging".
"sponging" tu bila blom time mandi/even after dah mandi.
i feel bad lah if i offended my mil.

so pls share ur experience/advise..... thanks!
