Kendrick recovers!

Since my last update about Kendrick falling sick, we went through about a week and a half before he finally recovered. At first his cough and phlegm just would not clear even after 1 week of medicine, so we went back to the PD for another check up. She gave an additional medicine to help open up some air passage or something of that sort and loosen the phlegm. This helped and by Monday or Tuesday, we did not hear Kendrick coughing or have any runny nose or any phlegm.

So glad that he has recovered at last! Even though he had cough and runny nose the past week, Kendrick was practically still playing away and active and having fun. Nevertheless, we were still glad to see him healthy again. Only problem that still exists though is his milk intake which has significantly reduced since a few days before Kendrick fell sick. It remained that way when Kendrick was sick and now that he has fully recovered, he still does not always want to drink his milk. I feel really troubled by this. Although the PD had mentioned that milk at his age is just a supplement and not his main food, I still believe that kids so young need to drink milk still. Really have no idea whether this is a temporary thing or a permanent pattern! Sometimes we really run out of ideas how to 'trick him' into drinking his milk because when he refuse, he just totally refuse. Maybe he's bigger already and understands a lot more so it's harder to bluff him!

Kendrick....hope that we can find some way to make you increase your milk intake again!
