Well hello....
Poor little Eli has an ear infection & is teething. Needless to say, the past 5 days in our household have been rough. He is super happy or
really cranky and barely drinks his bottle. We are doing our best with offering the bottle as much as possible; and luckily he does eat his solids decently.
This is the first time we have to have him on antibiotics and we are giving him Infant Mortin to keep him comfortable. I feel so bad for the little guy. He falls asleep at night for a few hours then is up for most of the night in pain. We have caved and brought him into our bed 2 nights in a row. We prop him up on pillows so that he can fall asleep sitting upright to alleviate the pressure on his ears. It isn't real sleep for us because one arm is around him but at least it is rest I guess.
Anyways, today we were back at the doctor’s office for a stronger prescription. The script we got from Friday's visit just wasn't cutting it. We hope to see more of an improvement over the next few days.
Today is a fresh start I hope :)
On another note, the very last post I was bragging about Eli sleeping through the night finally and look how quickly things changed! These babies.....really just when you think you have them figured out they switch it all up on you or they get sick!
