SG Childhood immunization - Review

There are many injections for children since birth. Thus, to keep a record of these vaccinations, i decided to blog about it.


I obtained the following table from mum centre website.
Singapore Childhood Immunization Schedule




Optional Vaccinations Schedule



There is now 5in1(DPTa/HIB/Polio) & 6in1(DPTa/HIB/Polio/HepB) vacciniation that combines the jabs. HH is taking 5in1 as the polyclinic nearby does not have 6in1.

So far, she has taken the following:

(1) at birth : BCG + Hep B
(2) 1st month : Hep B
(3) 3rd month : 5in1 1st Dose
(4) 4th month : 5in1 2nd dose & Rotavirus oral

We plan to have pneumococoal after her 3rd dose of 5in1, thus not to conflict with the compulsary vaccincation schedule.

Polyclinic nurses always discourage parents to take any optional jabs before the compulsary jabs. very confusing sometimes we are trying to follow the schedule from recommended schedule.

4th Month-Old

HH is 4 month old today. To remember this day, mum+me+HH went Ikea by BUS.
Yes, by bus. This is the very first time HH takes SBS Bus since she was born. I guess the experience is more adventurous tha taking mrt as she seems so interested with all the scenary on the whole journey and keep looking around. hardly blink.

I think maybe bcos in bus can see more things compare to in mrt.

I bought her a cutey toy basket. and some soft toys. See.. again buy things for her.. cannot resist those cute cute things..

WisDOm Tooth

FInally, i've extracted my wisdom tooth yesterday. I've taken the left side first. The right side will extract some time later.

The whole process is not painful but not comfortable as you get to hear the dentist use the drill or whatever ot is inside your mouth. so "geli"

now healing.. no MC since im still on maternity leave.

Milestones - Crawl

Today we found out HH (aka Hann Hann) can move forward on her own. Not much though, but she starts to make the fwd moving action with her legs..


Mum said she may be able to start crawling next 2 weeks time. woah !! what a development ! so i quickly write down here so that i will be able to remember her first crawl.

now, she likes to sleep with pillow covering her face like this.. Jen said her baby does that since 2 months.. haa.. i guess they feel comfy with softy coevring them. they can sleep easily in spring cot too.



HH likes to suck her thumb and fingers now. even with mitten. always soak the mitten ith saliva . Shake head

CNY

Getting excited ? CNY is just round the corner.. today LGG & i went down to bugis to get some mushrooms/nuts/abalone for our parents, for CNY.. heee.. this is the first year we actually go down to buy ourselves,,. last year my mum in law help us buy.. quite fun as i get to learn how to buy and choose what to buy for our parents..

Im thinking of preparing some cny dishes this year.. so that it feels like cny..got to dig out the recipes and get the ingredients ready !! so looking twds.. lalallalaaalllalal

Tomorrow will attend SS's wedding dinner... she is one of the last few left.. so we dun have many left that is still singles back home.. haaa.. can see all of us buddies are quite "laku".. almost sold out le.. ghahahhaha..

Sadly, i cant attend Ren Ren's wedding back home.. cos SS's invitation came first and i'm not able to go home by now. Hope she has a unforgettable wedding dinner ever ! be the prettiest nyonya bride ever !! Muak. sending all my loves to my buddy !

May all of us have a long lasting and joyful journey in marriage :)

First Trip home..

We made our first trip this year to my mum's place with our little precious along, of course.

In the beginning, she is not so happy about being in new place, surrounded by new people.. but she gets used to it rather fast :) her cousins are sooo fond of her..

we got many many things for her back home. two big luggage bags all her stuff.. phew.. we got her the baby gym too .. which is so much cheaper compare to getting one in s'pore.. and the most amazing things is, we managed to bring back a new spring cot for her all the way.. through customs and all .. kekekke.. we got the spring cot for RM 89.90(offer) with stable stands and all whihc in s'pore easily 120++.. kekekkee.. laugh my hearts out !!!! so very worth it !!

see how happy my cutey pie in her gym .. heee



within the 10 days at her maternal grandma's place, she has changed quite a bit.. she now talks a lot.. always make baby sounds..as if she has lots to talk about.. she likes to turn come turn go.. very dangerous to leave her alone.. must attend to her or watch out for her at all time.. as she will turn and if not careful all down from her mattress.. today i found her leg stuck from the gap of her cot.. cold sweat !

This trip, i get to visit my aunt's new home.. cool ! so huge and westernize ! and get to meet up with my high school friends.. all mummy now.. so we have concluded, all mummy will have spare tyres .. sob sob sob.. get to see thier children.. so cute and of course noisy !!

mum made pineapple tarts for cny. this year will be our first year celebrating cny as parents.. ahem ! upgraded. so i must get some cny stuff for my home.. so that it feels like cny.. haaa.. cool

Milestones - Turn

My girl can now turn over on her own.. only 3 months she can turn to one side on her own.. my mum said she is a strong girl ! haaa.. she is huh !

Despite her stomach flu, she is still able to turn here turn there..in away, we don't feel too worried as she appear normal and healthy.


Here's my clever girl ! Muak.

STomach Flu SObbb

My girl is now having stomach flu.. keep purging since 29th.. see doc twice still her conition not getting any better.. so worrying.. make me think of rotavirus.. as im planning to take this vaccination during her second dose for 5in1..

Her stool is soft and watery plus a bit of blood sometimes.. doc seem to think this is rather common in babies.. WHAT ??? so tomorrow shall see the doc one more time and if still not getting better we shall go to hospital.

My mum in law said last time her child also like this, they r heaty.. so we make some barley water for her.. hope it will help. Now she is drinking Soy formula to prevent further purging..

Lucky thing is that she is still drinking as per normal.. still playful and smiling and appears helthy and normal.. except her bottom keep discharging watery stool..

My new year resolution ? My girl stays healthy and happy forverer !
