Late wishes to wish everyone a Happy New Year. Slacked in updating Ern's blog as we were out of town (without taking Ern along) to attend a friend's wedding.
On Christmas Eve, Ern was 'almost down' with flu as she was sneezing the whole day and towards the evening, we started to see mucus flowing down. We got her to drink lots of water and eat more fruits (more than her regular serving) , hoping that this would help her to fight with the virus.
Before we put her to bed, fed her flu medicine and rubbed Vick's Baby Rub on her chest, back and feet. I have heard many mummies share the tips of rubbing Vicks on the feet and put up a socks. I thought no harm trying since the Baby Rubs smells so good! In fact, Ern liked it so much.
Obviously, we didn't celebrate any Christmas countdown because the flu medicine knocked Ern out so fast! Round the clock, Daddy checked and monitored on her temperature.
Luckily on the Christmas day morning itself, Ern woke up with no sign of fever and cough. Mucus stopped running down although her nose was still blocked. We were thankful to see her in the usual active mode(running around the house) and normal appetite.
With that, we decided to bring Ern to QB Mall for a short walk since Daddy wanted to check things out at Harvey. Ern was so delighted when we let her walk on her own because she gets to:
Hugged the balloons (at the entrance)
Climbing up and down on the sofa
Not to miss the rattan chair
Lastly, she was so thrilled when she spotted the 'moving' paper camera display.
