Hot Baby!

Poor boy developed a fever last night. Put him in bed but he doesn't seem to sleep well... keeps having suddenly jolts and starts crying. After a couple of sudden cries, we realised that his body was pretty warm... and I took his temperature, it's at a high of 39.5 degree Celsius!! We got a shock and quickly pasted a cooling pad on his head. We also tried giving his water which he rejects... I even drove out to get glucose but he still refuses to drink. But for a kid who was having fever, he sure seemed happy.

Early next morning, we took him to see his regular doctor but it seems like his fever has gone down to under 38. Nonetheless, we think it's better to get it checked out. Turns out that its nothing serious, but we have to monitor him for the next 4 days for any signs of rashes which means it could be dengue... *shudders* *cross fingers*
