Caroleen’s Treasures

Waaaah! The little guy is much fussier tonight. It’s not just due to teething but it’s the 4th time he had thrush and when he has it, he also has rashes on his neck and nape. His rashes is the worst in all those episodes. It spread in the back of his ears and part of his head. But he was very cooperative earlier when Donald and Ella went to Land Transportation Office (LTO) for a student’s permit. We played and cuddled a lot, I fed him with solid and he breastfed a lot too, we both napped and we did a lot of talking too.

I am applying Daktarin on his thrush and putting Calmoseptine on his rashes. Calmospetine It is zinc oxide plus calamine and it works wonders. We have been using it with Ella’s diaper rashes before and I’ve proven and tested it’s efficacy. Well it’s for keeping the affected area dry to avoid further infection and it also soothes itchy sensation if there is (Eman don’t complain about itch though LOL). Still I am trying to find at Wrongdiagnosis.com what it might be but the list of possible causes of having thrush and rashes at the same time but it can be really overwhelming so I decided to play my favorite FB games. We will bring him to his pedia again when Donald gets his pay. Eman and I so love the music of Petville. He dances everytime he hears it. And I dance too! hahahahaha

We also have a new game. It’s called “I drop, you pick”. He discovered that it’s so much fun. Well to him yeah but it makes my back hurt a little. While he’s in his playpen, I give him a toy to play with, he holds it smilingly and when he sees me seated in front of the computer, he will drop it and flashes a sheepish grin. We have a baby Tasmanian devil in the making. LOL After playing that crazy game, we played in the bed for a while.

And he tried taking a self portrait and sent a text message to Daddy. LOL

We both enjoyed spending time together. Donald and Ella are able to bond once again. Sort of mother-son and father-daughter bonding moment. Ella left an order to her little brother before they left, “Ading mag-behave ka ha kasi wala si Daddy at si Ate na tutulong kay Mommy magbantay sa iyo.” (Little bro you behave well because Daddy and your big sister will not be here to help Mommy look after you) And that is what he did, behaving, until they came home. He was back to his fussy self again wanting to be held, danced, rocked…you name it, he wanted it. I hope he gets better soon because there is nothing worst than having a sick baby at home. I hope he gets better real real real soon so I can start putting away all the stuffs in the other room that we cannot use. I am not yet done and it is like a lifetime chore for me. There is still one huge box that has some stuffs from the US. It has some medical supplies from the largest and most technologically advanced online medical supply retailers in the United States. Some I already kept like rolls of gauze and bandages, band aids and some sterile pads but the sterile gloves should be given away to those who can use it.
