Lil Shauna kena the Lao-Sai virus again. -______-" She poo poo 7 times yday and we decided to bring her to the doctor instead of continuing to monitor her. Her poo poo is very acidic and burns her delicate backside. She developed nappy rash and her bottom became very red and sore. The appearance looks painful already. She must have felt quite bad. We tried to let her go diaperless whenever possible and asked her to tell us if she needs to pee or poo but she's not and soiled so many shorts. -.o"
The doctor gave us 2 tupes of medicine, both she doesnt like. It is actually quite easy to feed her medicine and the medicine must taste quite bad to make her reject them. It takes a lot of coaxing before we managed to make her take some of the required dosage. And milk makes her run. The effect is very immediate. Once she takes milk, she gets the run the next moment.
We tried to substitute her normal milk with soy milk and soy milk tastes uber bad. Her current milk is sweet smelling but soy milk just smells bland. She was still really young (1+Yo) the last time she had bad LS. Milk was still her staple diet and she was willing to take soy milk when her milk addiction got too strong. This time, things are more complicated. She doesnt rely on milk to fill her tummy anymore. Most of the time she drinks for comfort and thus she chose to reject the soy milk. She skipped her last feed last night bcos she refused to swallow the soy milk. But I wun too if I am her.
She was clingy this morning and we had to give her diluted milk so as to escape to work. As expected, she LS shortly. she didnt have milk the whole day and succumb to soy milk after waking up from her nap. I cant tell if it was bcos she's half awake or she's too desperate. She still had runs today, about 4x. Things are improving, including her nappy rash but still not good enuff. She was so pathetic just now asking for milk repeatedly bcos she refused to take the soy milk. We didnt want to take chance and gave her grip water instead. Heng, she's willing to be coaxed and fell asleep shortly.
Pls pray for speedy recovery so that Lil Shauna can enjoy her milk again. She's such a poor thing now.
