Double trouble

Took both kids to see the Pediatrician this morning. Jo has been coughing quite badly while Jay has not slept well for 2 nights in a roll cause he hasn't pooped for 2 days. I can't function like this! Caring for the little one at night at waking up at 7 plus in the morning for the big one. It's tough.

So its the usual suspect for Jo, a bad cold with coughing and runny nose. Doc wants me to record down everytime I give her the Ventolin cause she wanna know if her lungs are developing well. Ok... another thing to add to my to-do list.

For Jay, the doc used a Q-tip to wiggle wiggle inside his anus. Didn't work, so in the end had to resort to using a "bullet". Well, there was alot of screaming, but it got Jay pooping before we left the Doc's office. So that's great. Can tell that he felt better after the poop. He's so quiet and peaceful in his harness, and was asleep even before we got into a taxi.

2 kids, double the joy, but also double and headache when they are not well. (Not forgetting double the medical bill! ) But the relief of seeing your child feel better is truly priceless.

That afternoon both Mama and baby finally could take a good long nap! Zzz...
