FollowI started Baby C on solids about a week ago. Her first ever taste of solids was some organic ground brown rice for babies that my sil bought from Hong Kong. I mixed it with some lotus root soup and she loved it. Baby C smiling away after tasting her first spoonful of rice cereal…

Almost The Whole Day Spent At The Hospital
I spent almost the whole day at the hospital with Baby C and my maid today. We reached the hospital at 10am for the antibiotics drip. We were told by the doctor to collect baby’s pee for another urine culture to see if the WBCs have dropped. That’s because no sensitivity test has been done…
A Few More UTI Attacks And My Baby Would Need Surgery
We brought the MCUG film (MCUG done at HUKM 2 months ago) to our pediatric nephrologist at SJMC today. Upon looking at the film, Dr Indon told us that Baby C’s ureter is positioned slightly lower than where it should be, thus the cause of the frequent urine reflux. She then referred us to a pediatric surgeon at the…

Updates On Baby C’s Breakthrough UTI
Brought Baby C for her 4th dose of antibiotics jab via intra-muscular today. As usual, she wailed her lungs out. The dr. ordered another urine FEME test to see if the WBC (white blood cells) in her urine has dropped. A urine bag was used this time. I prefer this method of collecting her urine than…

Another Painful Jab And Hopefully The Last
Hubby was busy this morning, so Connie Koo Por (hub’s aunty) brought us to a nearby clinic early in the morning to have the last dose of antibiotics jab administered. This time, I brought along Baby C’s favorite water-filled frozen teething ring and a rattle. The sight of the HUGE syringe filled to the brim with liquid…
A Chaotic And Dizzy Day For Me
Update On Baby C’s Kidney Reflux
The urine culture result yesterday showed that there is a moderate growth of E Coli bacteria in Baby C’s urine and the white blood cells in the urine have also gone up. Thus, our paed switched the antibiotics to one that the E Coli bacteria is sensitive to which is Unasyn Sultamicillin. She is to…
Feeding Baby C Medicine
This post is specially written for Baby C, in the hope that when she’s old enough to understand and read this, she will know what she and mummy had gone through to deal with the kidney reflux that she’s suffering from. Cassandra, as mummy is typing this now, mummy is hoping that very soon, you…
Update On Cassandra’s Kidney Reflux
We brought Baby C to HUKM to see the nephrologist today. An ultrasound scan was also performed on her kidneys. The right kidney is still moderately dilated and the left kidney is fine. She has a grade 3 Kidney Reflux, thus the reason the right kidney is dilated. The nephrologist said that if she has…
