Jab Jab

I woke up this morning and decided to bring Dylan to Dr Khor to check on his nose. Past few days he was spitting up milk (partly my fault) even after a big burp and he was snorting quite a bit. My mum and I went together. Before Dr Khor started her serious checks, she went looking at his eyes and said, "Hey, he has browner eyes than Shawn and big eyes too". After that she checked his nose, hear his breathing and said he's fine, just a little stuffy up there in the nose. It would probably take 6months before it all goes off. So I asked if he could take the jab today. She said well, yes he is fit enough but having him to take 2 jabs at one go could leave him traumatised. So she said she would decide once she jab him the 1st vaccination. Firstly he had a suppository up his butt for prevention of fever. Then he had the Rotavirus oral vaccination. Then he had the 1st jab on the right buttock. He squealed a little and then came the 2nd jab on his left buttock which left him screaming away. It wasn't the pandemonium scream but I got the pacifier ready and stuffed in and he was quiet after a few seconds. What a relief! Dr Khor and I went like, "Ok, very good boy. That's all for today"

After a quick lunch at ToriQ while Dylan knocked out after the jabs, we went shopping from Paragon to OG. Mom got her CNY clothes and shoes, while I just walked around and realised I haven't been to that area of Orchard road for a long long time. I didn't buy anything except a bottle of water from Guardian and cans of milk powder for Shawn to be delivered one of these days. Dylan had his feed at Paragon and OG, and he was a good kid while we are walking around and he was just lying in the stroller, getting his nap.

He is 6.33kg in weight and 59cm tall. Dr Khor still calls him Ah Pui...
