2nd dose of 5 In 1

Brought Cayden for his second jab of 5 in 1 on the 3rd Jan 09. he had grow bigger. Right now, he weighs 7.5kg, 66cm tall. Just one month, he put on 1kg and become taller by 4cm. He only took formula milk and aready growing so fast. The nurse said that he is under the "Large Babies" catagory.

Besides the basic meaurements, he also being check on his head lag. This time round, the doctor pass him as he is able to hold his head and not lagging anymore. After the check, he was given the jab. He cried for a few seconds and he stopped. He is indeed a brave boy.

After that, we went for our breakfast while he have his formula. When we reached home, he fall asleep real fast. This time round, no fever but he was crying at night. He cried for very long time until he was asleep. Dont know what cause the crying but all i know is that when he cry dont let him drink although he stopped crying. He will vomit out the milk he drank.

Next morning, he is back to normal. So i think maybe is the pain he have on the jab that cause him to cry. I will get him mentally prepare for the next jab.

5-In-1

Last weekend, Cayden went for his 5-in-1 jab. Before the jab, he was to see the doctor for assessement check. Everything was fine except that his neck's strength was weak so he is not good at holding his head up. Doctor advised to do some exercise to make his neck to be stronger to hold his head as he have a big head.

After the check, he was going for his 1st dose of jab. He was dozing off while waiting for the jab. Cayden was a brave boy as he only cried at the point of the injection. After that he was ok and fall asleep soon. The nurse also mention that Cayden was a big baby for his age (3months old).

Personally, i feel that he is not that big, as i think the weight he had was ok. (6.6kg). Everything was ok for the whole day as nurse already informed that fever may developed and told me to monitor the temperature and saying that 37.0 degrees is ok.

On Sunday afternoon, his temperature was 37.0 degrees so to avoid his temperature from going up, i start to wipe him with cold towel and gave him cool pack to bring down the temperature. Medicine was also given and it turns out fine for the rest of the day.

For mummy out there, if your baby have jabs and have temperature of 37 degrees which is still ok for baby(fever for baby is around 37.2 onwards), still do some precautions so that the temperature will not hike further.
