Even though my hair is a bit nappy I love this picture of Micah, thought I would share his sweet face. We made another trip to the doctor today because Micah woke up sick sick. He was so grumpy and tugging at those ears. And...another ear infection. In the ear that has a tube in it. The other ears tube has already fallen out. So the dr says sinus infection+ear infection=antibiotics. I am not sure that is the answer but what other choice do we have? I am not one of those mom's who insist on a quick fix, but I do want what's best. The doctor's seem to think antibiotics, but then when I go in and he doesn't get them they preach to me about building up a resistance to the antibiotics and that we should use them sparingly. But how can you use them sparingly when your little man is sick so often? I don't pay my copay just so they'll write me a prescription, I just want them to tell me what would be best. I hope and pray that I am doing right for Micah and helping him both feel better now and preparing him to deal with the future. We shall see. For now pray that he keeps that green junk to himself so that I can go to the beach snotfree!

poor thing. have they thought about sending you to a specialist or something that might be better able to deal with this? just a thought. praying he gets better.
I am just going to share my thoughts. I don't like antibiotics either but sometimes they are the only thing that will fix a problem. If you have to give him the antibiotics, try giving him yogurt with active cultures or sprinkle acidophilus capsules over his food. These are probiotics and will rebuild what the antibiotics are killing off. Hope this helps!!
Such a cute picture. Sorry he is sick. I hate he has another ear infection. Poor thing and poor Mommy.
Hey, and you are a good mommy. Don't worry about the meds. It is hard to know what to do and I know you are doing your best!
Love ya and hang in there!
I don't have kids so I don't have any wise wisdom regarding the antibiotics ...but I DO KNOW that YOU are an amazing mother & MICK is an amazing father!!
