Baby T

Visited the doctor again as little boy has a cough and runny nose. It was crowded and we had to wait a while to get to see the doctor. Finally it was our turn and the doctor got to see both of the kids. Little girls got sensitive sick which react quite badly when she gets an insect bite, it inflames quite a bit and the doctor decided to give her some cream to help out. She has gained weight and is now almost 9kg (she was weighed in at 8.9kg) She was at the 70th percentile for her age group but as she was born premature the doctor took the corrected age and she would have been in the 80th percentile.

Little boy on the other hand is a whopping 11kg. Hitting the 95th percentile and I think if they did the corrected age check he probably would have gone off the charts !! I could just imagine the doctor saying “ my charts not big enough to plot this “. Anyway the doctor checked his lungs and throat, lungs were ok the wheezing seems to be coming from his throat and not the lungs. A further check on his throat revealed that he has Baby Tonsils !! Well just like the daddy he seems to have tonsil as well. Doctor gave him some medication for his cough and the runny nose and we left the clinic. He seems to get sick quite often poor little kiddy.
