Jul has been battling a cold for the last 2 weeks. It seemed to have gone away, then came back full force. We saw Dr. Anthony today who confirmed Double ear infections. This is my child who does not complain and hates having 'down time' due to being sick. So, when she wakes up and says her ears feel 'fuuny' and head has a lot of pressure, I take her seriously. Thank goodness, no bad fever to deal with.She does have some 'coarse' sounds in her chest which Dr. A said can be due to inflammation or the virus itself. So a 10 day round of Antibiotics and strong cough syrup to help her clear her system. it doesn't help that for whatever reason, she will not allow herself to have a good chest clearing cough. She gets freaked out by the sound, and stops short of any productive cough. So, I guess that is why this is lingering longer then it should.
On the upside, she actually wants to cuddle with Mommy. And, since this is a rare occassion anymore, I will selfishly enjoy it.....as she will be better in no time and moving at warp speed once more!
