Edward is not feeling well and is having a fever, his first. He’s two months now and I took him to his paediatrician yesterday to have two vaccination jabs. We also had him took a dose of Rotarix, to prevent diarrhea caused by the common Rota virus. One of the jabs is pneumococcal meningitis.

I guess the amount of vaccination yesterday is a tad too much for his tiny body to bear. By late evening, baby Edward has a temperature of around 38 celcius and we gave him a 1.5ml dose of ibuprofen. At 4.30am in the wee hours of the morning, his temperature started to climb again as the medicine wear off. After breast feeding him, he took another 1.5ml dose of ibuprofen.

Clarisse too follow us to the paediatrician yesterday for her second dose of Hepatitis A vaccination jab. She doesn’t have fever yesterday and we hope she doesn’t get feverish today onwards.

The clinic bill came up to RM670 for three vaccination jabs and a dose of Rotarix. Ouch!
