Oh my, oh my! Here we go again ... Round #2.
We were hospitalized again for the second time ... pneumonia. His previous confinement was March of this year and after six months another episode. First I blame it to our very poor weather. Kids and even adults as well suffer from the same dilemma of having to go through the "sudden change of weather" condition. It's like - morning sunshine, then severe heat by 10am till 3pm, then it will rain by 4pm to stop after thirty minutes or so ... what a weather we have now.
But, sometimes I feel that I haven't given him enough colostrum when he was still a baby, I only relied mostly on infant formula. Not exactly that I wanted it like this but I just had postpartum depression so I really had a hard time coping up with breastfeeding. Breastfeeding was really part of my plan ... I did impose on a no formula policy, but after a week, he had high fever and was not urinating. Pedia said that it means baby is not taking in fluids/milk that well. Some of my friends recommendations to let my baby take organic infant formula for they say that non-organic baby food has artificial coloring and preservatives that is said to have a non-healthy effect on babies' health which includes asthma (which he has now ... oh my), allergic reactions, and a lot more. Hmmm, do you think I could still give him organic formula now to boost him immune system. But the questions is ... are these organic formulas has good taste ... that's for me to find out. But of course, for now I do rely on loading them with vitamins - specially Vitamin C and Zinc to boost their immune system. I am praying also that they eat more vegetables since this is the best and the cheapest immune system builder of all.
