I'm sure someone else will blog some photos from the weekend.Tonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13689217568594614828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4692181365660727544.post-38267894174026305882008-05-27T11:29:00.000-07:002008-05-27T11:29:00.000-07:00I'm glad she's doing better.

Thankfully we got through this one without a trip to the doctor or the need for drugs. <BR/><BR/>And I know the idea of the suppository is horrifying, but if you've done the Q-tip thing, it's no big deal. Just keep reminding yourself that it's going to make her feel better, and you'll get through it.

She is eating well again but still catching up on her rest (already on nap number two and we haven't left for Mrs J's yet...). I will look for the Feverall though the prospect of using it makes me shudder. Whatever is best for the little one, right? I have to say, I have a renewed appreciation for your winter suffering!

So glad to hear she's feeling better. General...Yay! So glad to hear she's feeling better. Generally if you can catch the infection early enough, the antibiotics will make her start feeling better within about 48 hours. <BR/><BR/>Now you just have to watch out for the poops. Antibiotics can either give them diarrhea (which happened to C-baby) or make them constipated. Good times. Remember the BRAT diet for the runs, and BabyLax and/or fruit juice for the constipation. <BR/><BR/>Oh! Also: this isn't necessarily related to the ear infection, but next time you go to the drug store, get some of the baby tylenol suppositories. They're called Feverall, and they're a life saver if she gets sick and you can't get her to keep anything down. This has happened to us a few times, C-baby will be so distraught that if we try to give her the medication orally, she'll just barf it right back up. But if you use the suppository, you don't have to worry about it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
