It was a worrying week for us. When we picked K up from childcare on Tuesday evening, the teacher told us that she had slight fever. While we were having dinner at the hawker centre before going to the supermarket, K became restless and we could feel her body temperature rising. She did not have any appetite for her dinner, which is really unlike her.

We went to the supermarket anyway. K's temperature shot up to 39.5 degree and I had to take the day off on Wednesday. The hubs and I took turns on Thursday. Friday, being Teacher's Day and with the advance notice that the school gave us, the hubs had already took the day off and had planned to bring K out. 

Anyhow, K's fever did not subside much and it was worrying for us as this is the first time she has no mood to eat, feel restless and despite us putting her in the tub, her fever was still very much present. Not only did she not want to eat, she didn't have her usual milk feeds either. 

When we brought her to the Dr's on Wednesday afternoon, in the heavy rain, K was prescribed Ibuprofen. By Thursday evening, she seemed a little better although her appetite was still not back yet. When I left for work on Friday morning, K was still asleep. 

When she was a lot better by late Friday afternoon, we brought her out for dinner with Jeremy's family and I noticed rashes on her nose. By Sunday, there were rashes all over her face and body and we thought it could be a drug allergy. There were red spots all over her body although it didn't seem to bother her one bit, which means they didn't itch. In the evening, we brought her back to the clinic and then she was diagnosed with Roseola. 

Thankfully, her fever has broken. She missed school for 2 days, technically 3. Definitely a tiring week for us.
