On Thursday, the daycare lady said he was pulling at his ear all day. On the way home I noticed he was holding his ear. So I made an appt for Friday am. Patrick brought him and the DR said it was teething.
So last night, Alex woke up at 1230 and 430 and was just weird. It wasn't the normal wake up in the middle of the night. Then he got up again at 630 and was fussy and inconsolable and fidgety. So we're sitting on the couch watching Blues Clues and I see drainage coming out of his ears. Both ears.
How can a daycare worker and parent know he has an ear infection but a dr can't see it then the next day it's so bad it's draining?
I'm so mad....another copay.

From my experience, doctors do not like patients to make the diagnoses. I noticed that from my pregnancy when I was told that I was wrong with what I thought I had. It turned out that I was correct all along. I would ask Alex's doctor how come the infection was not seen and now it got to the point that your baby's ear drums busted for drainage. Don't doctors realize that you know your own body and your baby better than anyone? That makes me so mad that Alex had to go through the pain. I hope your little man feels better soon.
