Ugh... 3rd ear infection
Since the end of August. This time, his nose is draining green, and he has yellow goo in his eyes too.
We have a F/U on Nov 18. If they are still infected (or infected again...), we will see the ENT and get tubes.
Re: Ugh... 3rd ear infection
We had the tubes talk with our pedi yesterday, too. Blah.
We go for our follow up on 11/7 and will see how her ears look after 10 days of a stronger antibiotic.
I hope Landon's ears feel better soon. It sucks to have sick kids.

Yeah, it does suck. But when they're in daycare, this is the way it is. The pedi said to brace myself for a rough winter. The first is always the hardest.
I'd rather him be sick now than when he's in real school and attendance matters.
Hope Nora feels better!

Has your pedi tried a different antibiotic? Charlie had a lot of ear infections this spring and finally they realized that he doesn't respond to Amoxicillin at all. Once they switched him to omnicef it was like he was a different kid. They think that his ear infections were never fully going away and he wasn't getting new ones, just the same one.
Another thing that our pedi told us is not to give him tylenol, but to switch to motrin/advil. She said that some studies are starting to show that tylenol may cause the infections to linger.
He had amox, then augmentin, now omnicef.
Interesting about the Tylenol.

Ditto what Lauren said.
N had 3 double ear infections in a row and switching to a stronger antibiotic seems to have kicked it (knock on wood).
Hope he feels better soon! (Nora too!)
Our crazy, wonderful life

16 read! my read shelf:
The language development is what I am most worried about. Nora really only says six words--Tessa, dada, mama, bye, hi, and choo-choo. She babbles a ton, but no other actual words. Until now, I'd just been chalking it up to regular variations in development--every kid is different--but now I'm starting to wonder. But I'd hate to put her through surgery to "improve" her speech development, only to find that she was really just marching to the beat of her own drum. It's tough.
Nora is on Omnicef this time, too.
Janks--the pedi said the same thing to us about this winter being a rough one for us, and it's her second one! I think the frequent illnesses are par for the course the first couple of years, unfortunately.
Amy--didn't Elle have a ruptured ear drum with one of her infections? Awful!
