Ear Infections


So I had an ear infection that would just not go away. When Mommy and Daddy took me to the doctor for my four month check up the doctor found that I had an infection in at least one ear. She said that she could not really see in the other ear because I was too waxy. The doctor gave me some medicine and then said she would see me again in two weeks. Well two weeks later I went to the doctor and for sure had a double ear infection. So she gave me another kind of medicine. Riley also had an ear infection and pink eye in both eyes at this visit to the doctor. I got to take medicine in my mouth and Riley had to take drops in her ears and she was jealous. I think she really hated getting those drops in her eyes too. After that visit we went back two weeks later and I still had an infection in both ears, but don't think that this has held back my eating at all. I weighed in at 18lbs 3oz at this check up and I was was five months old. My ears still had an infection so Dr. Howell told Mommy and Daddy that we had a couple of options either I could get a couple rounds of shots and then see how it went to see if I got another infection or we could get the shots and then I could get tubes. Riley has tubes so I know that it would be okay to get them, but Mommy and Daddy want to see if I can go without getting another infection because they don't want me to have to have surgery. So I guess unless I tell them other wise we will see how I do at my six month appointment. Cross your fingers for me.
