Ear Infections

Since about mid-November Jack has been battling ear infections.  It started off as croup and then he had an ear infection in his right ear.  A couple weeks later we went back to the doctor and he had a double ear infection.  A week and a half later we went back and he had an infection in his right ear.  Ten days later, Jack had another double ear infection.  Yesterday, we went back for a follow-up appointment to check the status of Jack's ears.  They were all clear!  The doctor and I were both surprised.  Each time we went to the doctor we got a different antibiotic for Jack to take.  The last time we went, he got two shots and ten days worth of antibiotic to take.  We are so glad this has cleared up and we don't have to do tubes.  Had we not gone to the doctor, we would have never known Jack was suffering with an ear infection.  He has been his happy, pleasant self the whole time.  In addition to the antibiotics, we decided to make some adjustments to his diet.  I guess only time with tell if we are completely in the clear.

And, because no post is complete without a picture of Jack...
