Whenever Ryann is not well, he will always find me for comfort only. Thus i will often get disturb nights. Some time i will just knock out and hubby will take over.Poor Ryann have dark eye ring liao.
Brought him to Doc Tan again. Went there at 9.30am but Doc Tan not there yet. She went to the hospital. Thus the queue was pretty long. We waited for more then a hour.
Doc Tan said Ryann's situation is more or less the same as before but not as serious as the first time he was on neb. She further explained to me that it is very likely to be related to genetics reasons because both hubby and I had allergies. And Hubby had similar problems as Ryann - Cough and flu very often. Since young we know that Ryann is suffering from atopic allergies.
Allergens, or allergy-causing substances, can be airborne substances (e.g., pollens, dust, smoke), infectious agents (bacteria, fungi, parasites), foods (eg. strawberries, chocolate, eggs), contactants (poison ivy, chemicals, dyes), or physical agents (light, heat, cold). Allergens can affect the respiratory system.
The only way we can try to prevent it from happening is to take good care of Ryann's diet and the staying environment. Make sure it is free from dust and smoke. Watch his food etc.
I was still joking with her about reporting to her clinic every month. I was telling her that i breast feed Ryann for so long yet he still fall sick every month. Really wonder if my breast milk are effective or not. Doc Tan said maybe if i don't breast feed, Ryann might be sick every 2 weeks. =P That make me really tempted to continue breast feeding. But i already cut my pumping session and supply already. Don't think i would be able to regain the supply back again.
Share with her my opinions about Ryann's immunity and on whether is it necessary for him to take supplements or vitamins at this age. Doc Tan's opinion is some what similar to mine. That is as long as Ryann have good sleep, balance diet, nutrition values all taken care of, is eating well and developing well, there is no need for supplements. Unless Ryann is a fussy eater and reject some of the important food in the food pyramid then they is a need for multivitamins.
Currently what is lacking in Ryann's diet is just fruits. Ryann don't really like fruits. Partially also because he only have 2 teeth thus we need to mash them up. I will try to continue to reinforce fruits in his diet if not might need to intro Vit C already.
I also asked her about Ryann's teething issues. Ryann only have 2 teeth. The upper ones have yet to surface but however i can see some white lines on top not on the front tooth but the side instead. Doc Tan said it is a little unusual but still too early to tell. So ask me to monitor. Was thinking of asking Hui Xian (Sister in law) since she is a dentist.
I guess for this coming Christmas, like what corrine sing:"All i want for christmas is my 2 front teeth"
p/s: He lost weight - 10.6kg =(
