Hello everyone! Sorry for the lack of posts lately. I have been sick while trying to comfort a sick little one. Riley seems to be doing much better though. I just wish I could get over this. I went to the doctor Monday & she said I have an upper respiratory infection & my ears are also infected. I have a new found respect for these babies with ear infections because it hurts like no other. Little ones are much tougher than me! She put me on Amoxicillin & said that I can't take anything stronger due to being pregnant, but it has not done a thing for me. I've been on the meds for 4 days now & don't feel any better. Actually, I don't think I have felt this bad since I had Mono in high school. Riley & I have been staying at my parents house since Sunday & thank God for them. I would never be able to keep up with Riley by myself while TAG is at work feeling this way.
Speaking of ear infections, we go tomorrow to do a re-check on Riley's ears for the 4th time to see if he still has the infection. I don't know if I mentioned recently or not, but we went last week & they had come back in both ears even worse. The doctor put him on the level 3 antibiotic & said that this time we may have to be referred to an ENT to talk about tubes if it hasn't gone away. I pray we don't have to go that route, but if it will help him, I guess I am all for it.
So that's it for now. We are just trying to get/stay well. I will be back soon!


hey girl! I'm sorry you have been so sick I hope you get well soon. I get ear infections too and they are miserable so hang in there. Also we were in the sme boat with aiden and his ears and I was willing to try anything before having him put to sleep and get tubes. I decided to try chiropractic care in May of this year and aiden hasn't had 1 sinlge ear infection and VERY rarely has gotten sick. I encourage you to just look into it (google pediatric chiropractic care). Our insurance even covered the treatments.
ReplyDeleteOh man, sorry you're having such a rough time. Nothing is worse than being sick except being sick and pregnant! And poor Riley. Charlie is struggling with that and meets with the ENT this Friday. :(
