There nothing more scary than to see your very own child not feeling well especially when s/he is your first one. And to make matter worst you are living in a foreign land away from your mother or mother-in-law or any of your relatives. I happened to fall into that category.
My baby girl fell ill yesterday when she was infected by a virus that makes her vomiting and having diarhea. As a matter of fact it was my fault. I was the one who should be blamed for all these. 24 hours before she gets her I was ill with the same sickness. It was so miserable as I have to go to the loo every time after the consumed anything. I vomitted several times too. Seen a doctor and had my medications and suppose to be okay soon after. Yes...I am okay with the sickness but not okay with the pain I have watching my precious little one suffering from what I just had hours ago. Obviously it was from me...
It started that morning when I fed her that she puked. i thought she was only too full or having too much in her mouth that she vomited. It was like pouring. I did not see or notice anything that might have happened to her. Then she passed motion which was different from the usuals - yellow and much smelly. Still I was ignorant with that. As a matter of fact, I was texting my wife about it and she text me back saying she is still very adorable. Of course she is...she our baby our only child.
Until she passed motions more than the usual I began to question the whole scenario. Yes it was the virus infection! Damn it! I urged my wife to call the children hospital right away and hours later a doctor came over to our house - about 1 in the morning. "Nothing to worry about it's a minor one and she will be okay soon...". That's what the doctor said. They always say that. But it make me feel a little better although I knew for fact that I would not be able to sleep that night. After giving us few lines of advice there goes our seventy euro.
but to cut the story short, today after twenty-four hours she seems to be okay. She did it twice only which is very encouraging. No vomiting! Great...and she eats a little too. Thank GOD! I hope we all can sleep tonight...
I hope I don't disgust you guys. This is a lesson for all new parents... Cheers

Cool!! (Its me Gerald)
