Dosage mistake

Sent boy and Rujie to work before baby Dylan's checkup at NUH yesterday. PIE is always in a slow traffic mode when you are in a rush, they are late for work for 10 minutes, wonder if they will get nag at. It is not my fault, it is the sleepy monster. I woke up the earliest, 6.30 am, to feed, to get ready to go out.

Baby Dylan's checkup is 8.45 am, it was 9.30 am by the time I see the doctor. I was shocked to hear that at the previous visit to the hospital, the nurse and the doctor had a miscommunication with the dosage of the medication. The dosage to be given daily to baby Dylan should be ¾ tablet, but the nurse and the doctor got a communication problem and told me to give 1 and half tablet daily. That is totally absurd, how can this kind of mistake occur? The doctor did assure me that the difference will not affect anything, taking more of the thyroxine will not affect anything, only taking not enough will affect. I am not the doctor, so I lanlan already la! So I asked what the purpose of yesterday's doctor’s visit, answer is: to check that the baby is well. Nothing much is done, I felt that the visit is pretty redundant except for the dosage shock I get.

I am to return to the hospital again 2 weeks later on 29th August, 10.40 am, only then there will be blood test to determine whether to increase or decrease the dosage of the thyroxine. As for the next visit, Jiayi accompany me go ok? Because by then, I would have move back home already.

Baby Dylan is quite cranky for the past few days, he wants attention when he is awake, and wants to be carried. I had a hard time trying to coax him to sleep so that I can rest or do other things. Finally he is sleeping now, or else I wouldn't even have the time to blog now.
