So our baby boy has his 2nd ear infection. Im not suprised because I ALWAYS had them as a child (in and out of the hospital with tubes), and David had them as well. He started with a clear runny nose and a dry cough (from the nose draining down). I actually thought it could be allergies, David's have been flaring up recently. I take him to the doc, and yup hes got an ear infection.
I did a nasal flush on him and he has been sleeping with the vaporizor on. Last night I did the nasal flush, which of course he hates now. So much mucus came out! He wouldnt look at me afterwards....he was very upset with mommy. How dare I do that to him! Of course daddy was there to be the hero. Little did he realize daddy was helping hold him. Of course Caleb forgave me and let me put him down for the night. He slept from 6:30 - 6am without waking once. He didnt snore because he could actually breathe! When we woke this morning you could tell he got a full nights rest.
So a few more days of antiboitics, maybe another nasal flush and Caleb will be back to normal.
Oh and I had a bad mommy moment. The medicine suggests to take with a meal or small snack for it could cause an upset stomach. Yesterday morning I gave it to him on an empty stomach, just so that the daycare wouldnt have to do it. Well after his morning bottle at daycare, Caleb threw up :( The girls said it looked like something out of a horror movie. It was projectile vomit. But do you know that little stinker just went right back to playing after he finished. Like nothing happened!
Still no teeth and hes not crawling, YET. I can tell he wants to so bad, and he is so good on his stomach pushing himself up. He just needs to figure out to put his knees under him.
