First Ear Infection

I feel pretty lucky that we have gone nearly 16 months before our first "sick visit" to the doctor. Well, today that streak ended. Connor has his first ear infection and thus his first dose of antibiotics. Poor little guy. Lets hope he sleeps better than he did last night (which after 11pm was not at all).

So sorry to hear that, ear infections are no fun! We just finished a round of ear infection meds. BUT, what a wonderful record of this being Connor's first sick visit!! hope you have a peaceful night. :)

Oh, my ear infections are no fun- but that's great that he's been so healthy!! Luckily all of our little Hams are finally ear infection free and feeling fine! And if he still won't sleep tonight- there are some ear drops that numb the inside of their ears that may help....Luke's first ear infection was at 9 months ana every time we laid him down, he screamed and wouldn't sleep. I called the Dr. and he gave him an Rx for that drop. He said that lying down with an ear infection can cause pain and that it would help ease the pain so he could sleep- Good Luck!
