My son is going to be a 3 yrs old boy in a few months ahead..
and now I’m worried! So worry.. at this
age he still doesn’t show any sign that he is ready to say goodbye for his
diapers! I’ve read and google a lot about the potty training issues and talked
with many experienced moms about these.. and most of them telling me that my
son is still not too late and considered still in earlier range of age for
potty training. But what concerned me the most is he is growing and getting
bigger.. my boy is a bit bigger than his age.. HE IS HAPPILY WEARING XL SIZE
DIAPER since before he reach 2yrs old (kalo sa nda silap.. but now the XL seem
not so comfortable to him anymore.. so there were 2 major issues that we are
dealing now! 1. The bigger size for
diaper (Drypantz)in the market is only XXL which is very limited stock dan
selalu teda!.. problem no 2. since he is growing actively I mean sangat la
hyperactive that make him sweating easily.. and wearing a diaper is totally not
a good idea for a eczema sufferer like him.. if u never dealing (or see) people
who suffer with eczema then, you might don’t know what I’m talking about.. but
if u do.. then I’m happy because I’m really sure that u can understand me jiwa
dan raga.. !!
my son born with
eczema (its in his blood!!! Inherited frm his daddy.. grrr) he was officially
diagnosed and confirmed by the dermatologist that he has an eczema since he was
3 months old baby.. I can’t recall all the suffering that we’ve (us & our
baby) been through but he is different from other normal baby.. I mean the Penjagaan.. managing
him alone is just like looking after for a 4 babies.. all the efforts, energies,
patience etc are doubles! We have to be very careful with everything..
EVERYTHING! From his milk to what to wear him, his clothes, blanket, booties,
mittens, the toiletries.. he cannot wear any clothes but only made from cotton!
100% cotton.. shoes also? Yes.. only cotton shoes..and we the mom n daddy also
have to wear cotton or you cannot cuddle him in your arms.. his toiletries?
Only prescribes by the doctors.. foods?? Mygoodness… we only feed him rice and
chicken soup + labu until he reach about 2 yrs old.. he cannot eat any seafood
or any seafood based foods, egg, and any flavoured foods.. just imagine, he
cant even eat the baby nestle cereal products like the nestum’s series bcos its
contained artificial flavour.. he is super allergy to those foods! We have to kept
him away from those kind of foods.. I’m serious! His eczema will flare-ups even
he did not eat/ swallow the foods.. for example he touched the spoon that we
use to senduk the soup ikan or inhale the smells that contained something yg he
allergy which is susah btl mo identify.. I also have to stay away from my perfume..
pewangi2 kereta pun I don’t buy..
ok what will happen when the eczema flared ups?? It become
itchy and he will start scratching his affected (eczema sufferer’s ) skin and scratch..scratch and SCRATCH sampai bedarah2..
and for you to know.. i see my son first drops of blood at his 4 months old of
age! 4 months old baby! Imagine la..kalo bby kena gigit nyamuk ja pun kita akan
sakit hati sdh nmpk..imagine u see blood..:( that’s how I felt… mcm nangis
keluar air mata darah ja juga nmpk..
I was a bit scared and panic that time but i started to get
used with it since then… and it became a
kind of our routine now dealing with the blood! I’ve experienced what my mom
never did so I can’t go to her for advice.. my mom was the most surprised ibu seeing my baby
condition back then..she was shocked and blank and speechless and totally have
no idea what is eczema all about.. so
all I can do is google and searching for info to educate myself on how to
manage and handle a baby with an eczema.. of course there are a lot of doctors
in town but yaa..nothing is free! I myself couldn’t afford my hungriness to
know “WHAT IS ECZEMA” the what?, the how?, when?, where? How if?, what if?? And
so on..and on.. so the only thing I can do is GOOGLE and apparently it really
does help me a lot in many ways… i joined a forum, chat room, blog, website and everything
on the net! this is one of the blog that
I followed.. “Diary of an Eczema sufferer” its kind of a huge relief when u
found someone else on earth that having a same situation with you.. I’m not
suffered from eczema but I carry the burden…
Dear Mr/ Ms/ Mrs I want
good skin, whoever you are.. i really thank to u for sharing your story http://skinurghs.blogspot.com/ God
bless you..amen
What say you..? :( |
