HIP DYSPLASIA: Post Operation 3rd Day

Our son's energy came at a halt after his 3rd day of his operation on his hip dysplasia. He was having a high fever, cough and colds that started late in the afternoon up to the evening. When we consulted our neighbor who is a pediatrician, she said that it was normal for it to happen especially after operations.

So my son had to stop trying from running and jumping for a day. He wasn't able to eat well also and was even dead tired to watch his favorite Barney and Sponge Bob shows. We were up all night monitoring his fever and made sure that he was warm enough to be able to sleep well and have a proper rest.

Good thing was we were able to change his bandage easily this time. He was just looking at his wound, then he will put his attention in watching TV. After we replaced his bandage, he then said "Finished already! I'm not afraid." After hearing him said that, we knew that he will be fine.
