Ear Infections

All four of us are recovering from a yucky very wet sinus cold (I am yet again amazed at how much snot a single person can produce... I'm talking about me). Looks like Matthew has got through it ok, maybe his body is big enough now that the fluid no longer has a problem draining from his ears. But Adam hasn't. So our poor little 5 month old has an infection in both ears. He isn't showing the same signs that Matthew did when he got an ear infection and it was really just blind luck that we decided to take him in this morning and get them checked. He woke us up and around 2am this morning crying for about an hour. But during the day he seems fine.... although looking back he hasn't been sleeping well during the day... but we thought that was just the way he is.

Anyway, he is on a low strength antibiotic for a week and then back to the doctors for a check.

Dad was showing me what to do so the 'tough' message was NOT for real. You & Robin were different in exactly the same way: we knew when you were ill/in pain but we had to guess with Robin. Maybe it's the same with Matthew and Adam
