Happy monday motherhood community!!!
Hello everyone!What's up ?
It's been a while that I posted my motherhood story here and today ,I will be sharing you on how my days went on as a worried mom.
It was Saturday's night when my eldest son keeps waking up at the middle of the night ,I thought I was dreaming that time but it's true that my son was crying.
And keeps saying"mama I can't sleep ,my hands and feet is so itchy(while crying)".
It was around 12 am that I tried making some remedies for his itch hand and foot.
I letting him to hold the ice and wash his feet with cold water and after few minutes of letting him to feel better using the cold of the ice ,I applied an antibacterial cream for his hand.
Good thing that he able to fall asleep but the around 3 am ,he awakes again and asking my help.
So again ,I used the ice for him to relieve from itchiness and back to sleep again.
Sunday morning I feels so worried watching my son suffering that itchy feeling and I was thinking maybe it's the Hand ,foot a d mouth disease and since it's Sunday and there's no open clinic for check up I tried some home remedies for him to relieve from that itchiness.
I gave him a medicine for allergy and feels better a few minutes and feels the itchy again.
I also tried the hot compress for his hands and feet but still only relieve for a few minutes.
I also tried the warm water with salt but the same as what I used for him that only relieve for a few minutes.
So this morning I decided to take him to a doctor for a check up.
This is how his hands look like.
I am waiting for my husband's salary but it came around 11 in the morning so I decided to take him after our lunch.
So we leave the house around 12 :30 in the afternoon but then our motorcycle needs to be check up first lol! So we have to go first at the motor shop for repairing it.
We came at the clinic around 1 pm ,we need to travel for almost 30 minutes as this clinic located at the next town although there are some clinics here in the town but are expensive and we have to wait for a long time.Ive been experienced waiting for almost 4 hours .
Good thing I learned that there's a clinic in the next town where there's only a few patient .
But then when we came at the clinic it was closed as they are having a lunch break and clinic is open at 2 in the afternoon so we need to wait for an hour .
When it opened for check up ,we are second to their list and we only waited for a few minutes only.
And the doctor confirmed that it is a HFMD ,I feels so worried for my son and thanks God that is not really a serious illness as we went to a doctor immediately so he was prescribed with anti allergy medicine and antibiotic as well.
We spent $20 for his check up medicine and it's okay as long as my son is safe .
Espero sane y pase rápido este susto, bendiciones🙏
I hope you son will be okay in no time, te.
