Our poor little baby. That ear infection from 10 days ago never went away. She had a fever on and off all weekend reaching as high as 102 degrees on Sunday. We cold compressed her, gave her Tylenol, let her sleep - all that seemed to help but yesterday at daycare she flirted with 101 degrees (their cut off for being sent home) and then refused to eat and started screaming. I took her to the doctor yesterday afternoon and that's when we learned either another ear infection was in place or the first one never went away. We got a scrip for Augmentin which is a step up from regular amoxicillin and an appt with an ENT (ear, nose and throat) doctor next Tuesday - 4 ear infections in 5-6 months will get you into an ENT and most likely the poor thing is going to need tubes in her ears :( We will see what they say next week I guess.
On a completely unrelated note it has been over 90 degrees temp wise here for 4 days now - I am embarrassed and yet thankful to be able to say we had to turn our A/C on on Sunday because it was so oppressive out. It is supposed to break tomorrow but good lord, a heatwave in April???
