All About HFMD

Hi cantbearit2,


Thank you very much.

May i know what brand of milk shake you gave to your kid? How to do it?

My son seems has fully recovered, just having some minor scars that is all.

My baby girl has blisters on many of her body parts and two ulcers. She refuse to eat and drink anything. She is 2yo.We gave her vitamin c, manuka, green bean soap - all she refused to drink.

She has ben crying many days and couldn't sleep well.

Thanks

I think it is up to your creativity.

But I only bought vanilla ice cream and mix with Meiji strawberry milk. The amount you put in for both will depend on the consistency you like. I put in very little of the milk compared to DH.

The smell of Meiji's strawberry milk will entice even the adults. :lol:

Thanks cAntberit2,


In fact, i bought ice-cream for my younger one. She finished two sticks of vanilla ice-cream and asked for more.

I bought her cup ice-cream, she doesn’t like it.

She loves DHA and always ask for more. Since having HFMD, she doesn’t want to take it due to mouth ulcer.

When she sees her brother eating donut or chocolate bread, she wanted to eat but couldn’t bite.

Poor kid!

Hi Charmaine_chong,


Poor kid. Same like my DD2. She's a food lover but yet couldn't mouth a single drop of water.

That's why we were so appreciative to our Paedi's suggestion of the milk shake. It's the only thing she could swallow.

Hope you kiddo get better soon.

Thank you for the update blurbee. If not for your post, I was not aware of the # and the trends.

very scary indeed... don't wish to revisit that nasty period again..

For all you mummies going thru the period now, hope your child gets well soon. Please remember to take good care of yourselves too.

Is it possible to have HFMD again as well>?

yup, possible. My poor nephew got it 3 times within a span of 4 mths. Said to be different strains.. the symtoms were different. One milder then the next round..

[xiaowanzi]

my gal also got it recently but recovered very fast.. thanks to G3!!

[auntieM]

One kindy in Hougang ordered close due to HFMD… and the numbers ofkids affected this time round keep rising… Parents with young kiddos especially do take note…

super_dad:

Anyone got first hand experience in this? Seems quite serious this year.

There is a new solution to preventing HFMD. (Solarclean) i bought it and use to spray on my 2 kids shoes and washing cloths. works 24 hrs daily and last for 6months per spray.
