Have any of your children suffered from ear infections. I hope not! My youngest son has had several. And let me tell you – they are NO FUN!!! No fun for him or me! He doesn’t sleep well when he has them, which means I don’t sleep well. I’m used to not getting a full night’s sleep, but a few nights in a row of a cranky baby means Mommy is getting crazy!
Have your kids ever gotten ear infections??
I can’t click the like button on this post, because I feel your pain. My oldest had many ear infections as a baby. We finally had to put tubes in her ears when she was a year old. Those sleepless nights with a child who can’t tell you what’s bothering her plus a frustrated mommy who can’t help her baby equals total misery. Praying you both get some rest and feel better soon!
You are so sweet. Ear infections are no fun!!
Both of my kids went through it. The older one had them until he was three. Apparently three was the magical age-he hasn’t had one since. Now he’s had OTHER things (including being hospiitalized for vomiting/dehydration for a week-his birthday week!) The Princess had terrible recurrent ear infections up until this past Spring. We were one infection away from the dreaded tubes, when she just stopped having them. Hopefully we’re done with all of that! ;-P
Awww..your poor son! That sounds horrible. I hope you guys stay healthy!
Oh nooo. My kids have never had an ear infection, but my youngest has asthma and whenever she gets a cold, she does not sleep or breathe well for about a month. Torture, torture, torture. I hope your little baby recovers very fast!
Thanks! My oldest son as asthma and the same thing happens to him when he gets a cold. Poor things!
Aw, hope your little guy feels better soon. Ear aches are NO fun for anyone. I’m pulling for you all to get back to normal quick!
That’s so sweet of you! Thanks!
Just to clarify, I like the cartoon, not the ear infections! xoxo
Ha Ha!! You just made me laugh!!!
Oh, I’m so sorry (for both of you!!)
The middle of the night was the worst. I have scarring in both my ears now, as an adult. :/
My kids thankfully do not suffer with these, but *I* did as a child and it was horrible!
It seems a lot of kids get tubes in their ears now. Is that something his pediatrician has considered? Or is it not that serious yet?
Hi Valerie. We just got back from the doctor and he does have an ear infection. He has seen an ENT for tube consultation, but I chose to wait and see. Well, I guess that didn’t work out so well! We will have to go back to the ENT again. Glad your kids have not had any!
I probably SHOULD HAVE gone to an ENT when I was young. :/ Hope it heals for him soon. <3
Oh! I got your postcard today! Thanks
I got yours yesterday! It was really cute!! My kids loved it!
Oh good!
my aimee always had these! she had such a bad time, but she is 9 now and touchwood they have stopped now. hope better soon. xxxx
I’m glad she grew out of it. Thanks for the comment!
My oldest had so many ear infections she finally got tubes put in at 10 months. My youngest has only had one so far, im really hoping there are no more!
We may have to go the tube route too. Did it help your child? Hope your youngest stays healthy!
Yes, it helped her for sure. She hasnt had another ear infection since! They did hers in about 5 minutes at an appointment at the ENT dr. They didnt have to use general anesthesia or anything like it. Just put some numbing drops in her ears and inserted the tubes. We waited in the waiting room, and it was tough because I knew she was crying, but it was much better than handing her over to do general anesthesia.
That makes me feel a lot better! Thanks!
Oh! I hope your son gets better soon! and hope you will get some rest very soon too! I know what it is not getting much sleep, my son has been having night terrors lately and it’s painful seeing him in this state. Hope your baby won’t have to go through these ear infections much more. Take care and big virtual hugs to both of you xxx
You are so sweet! Thanks! Night terrors are really hard to watch. Hang in there!
Thank you, we will!
