Jeremy is 5 months and beyond...

He turned 5 months last week and and as usual commemorated the milestone with series of suspicious bowel movements. It looked like diarrhea but he appeared normal and happy. At first we attributed it to his teething problem. Alarm bells rang when it suddenly became too frequent i.e 8 times a day. We took him to the paed and was informed that yeah - it's diarrhea alright caused by a viral infection that he picked up through his fingers which are now constantly in his mouth. Anyway, he prescribed Bebelec (a lactose free formula) for him which he's still on till today. His bowel movements have almost returned to normal which was a great relief!

So here he is at 5 months looking all cheery and playful!

Julian: Cool - can't wait to hear about her developments at 5 months too!

Milkmaid/huisia - I've been wiping his hands with boiled water now and then but he still puts them in his mouth. I think he's trying to see how many fingers he can put in his mouth at one go *lol*

Jazzmint/Sasha/Shannon/Milkmaid - we tried to prop him up for his photoshoot but couldn't really get him to sit up properly - this was the best angle and picture that we got
