Physical or Psychological?
Health May 17th, 2010Never did I expect to write this post
A post about Binbin
A boy who loves to eat fruits
and vegetables too
A boy who has no fear in trying new food
or drinks even if the colour looked weird
A boy who has always been praised for his appetite
5 days ago
4 spoonful of porridge made him gagged
thereafter, every meal became a challenge
A challenge to get the food pass his throat
Since Saturday,
My younger one hardly eats more than a teething baby
starting on solid
This morning,
even a bite into his favourite chocolate did not work
Its time.
Its time to visit the doctor
To find out if its a psychological problem or a physical issue
We did suspect that it was psychological because other than meal time, he is a happy lad
Jumping, Laughing out loud, climbing up and down, yelling at his brother for playing with his ‘Hot Wheels’ without asking his permission….
Gastritis – so said the doctor
Medicine given
Observation period began
If conditions did not improve
Further consultation would be needed
So fingers crossed for now
2kg gone in 5 days is a Warning sign not to be dismissed
Let’s hope the next post for on Binbin would be a celebration post
*toes crossed too now *

I hope Bin Bin has recovered by now. Xuan is not eating and I am getting real worried too. She drinks two scoop of milk in the morning for 30 minutes!!! No appetite to eat all other food that she usually eats… what’s happening?? But she doesn’t throw out her food although she display signs of vomiting. Gastritis too???

Tin,
Oh dear, I do suggest that you bring Xuan to see the doctor.
Bin started to gag for a few days before the actual vomiting came.
*super hugs*
P.s. he is definitely much better now. but still small FREQUENT meals.
