Goings on...

We went to the doctor on Friday to check her weight and her ears. Both ears were clear, but had fluid behind them (doc said to watch her, it could develop into an ear infection). And her weight was up almost a pound (in just 2 weeks!)...I'm telling you, this girl can eat when she's feeling good. Over the weekend, she started pulling, tugging on, and sticking her fingers in her ears. Sunday night she had a temp of 101.7. Monday morning we were back in the sick clinic, you guessed it, ear infection. A double ear infection this time. So we are on yet another type of antibiotic, this one seems to effect her tummy worse than the last two. I asked the doctor, and she said there is no worry about hearing issues from all this. And to make things even more interesting, I do believe we have more teeth coming in on the bottom. She is drooling lots more than normal and I think I saw the beginnings of a white spot pushing on the gums (hard to tell when she won't let you look in her mouth).

My mom has been in town this week. We decided to go get pictures made of her, Sofia, and I, 3 generations. Here are a few of the best. Sofia was a trooper. In 90% of the photos you'd never know she wasn't feeling good.

Sweet! I love #3, it's great!

And - FYI - my friend's son had chronic ear infections and because of the fluid he's lost 30% of his hearing and now goes to speech therapy 3x a week, he also has to learn sign language because he couldn't hear to learn basic sounds. So beware of those infections.

Those are great pictures! And I love the last one (even though your Mom's not in it...).


I'm asking out of ignorance: would getting tubes in her ears help the problem? Hope she's feeling better soon!
