Think most of you would know that I stand by Western medicine. Why? Cos it works???
For the past two days, we've been feeding Renee the gross-looking powder from the Chinese sinseh. How did we manage to get her to eat it? Mix it with LOTS of honey (which my friends confirm causes phlegm). Erm. Why mix something that does the opposite of what we want to achieve? Beats me, but I let my MIL have her way just to see whether it works.
Seems her cough isn't getting any better, in fact, it seems to be getting worse in my opinion. Fortunately, my SIL is a pharmacist and my BIL is a doctor so after some discussion, MIL was "over-powered" and we gave her the medicine from Dr. Vas.
Rhinathiol and Zenmolin. Zenmolin is supposed to open up the airways to facilitate the expulsion of phlegm through coughing. Rhinathiol is supposed to dissolve the phlegm.
Well, straight after taking it, we gave her her milk and before she was a quarter done, she vomited all the milk out together with some phlegm. MIL straight away said, "you see, Chinese medicine is better, dunno why she can't agree with the Western medicine. The stupid medicine opened her airways too much."
Well, I'd want to give the medicine 2 days to do what it is supposed to do. Afterall, we gave the Chinese medicine 2 days to show its magic but it didn't.
My question to all my friends who have kids and given them the above two medication, do your kids vomit whatever they eat or drink? Is it supposed to do that??
Everytime she vomits, MIL will say her heart-pain. As if I enjoy seeing my darling vomitting. Sigh.

Hey, i think one of ur medicine is supposed to make them puke. Athena puked quite a bit even now. It's a ritual every nite and we are changing bedsheets every other day. Vomit is supposed to be good as they puke out the phlegm which make them feel better after that. No worries, continue with the medicine.
Thanks Karen. Also thanks to Susu who msg-ed me. I think we are going the right way, just have to close my ears to any negative comments. Thanks for the moral support women!
Changing the sheets is the challenging part though.
