Sick
Posted: 04-08-04 00:40am

Sean went to the doc last week because I called and wanted him checked I thought he had an ear infection and he did. Well lately he hasnt been sleeping (for the past 2 nights). Yesterday he didnt take a nap at all. And usually he takes 1, 3 hour nap. I have been giving him the medicine as told. But I think he is sick. This isnt my seany....He does not have a runny nose but he has a little bit of a couf(spelling, I cant think of it).. Any ideas??

I am worried, I hate this. I mean last night I had to walk back and forth outside with no shoes on to get him to sleep. He is hurting. I put him down and he screams....Ahh!!

Its just the ear infection. Take him in again if he keeps it up. Hope had 2 ear infections recently and all she did was lay there and wanted to be cuddled. Just cuddle him til he goes to sleep and keep givin him medicine. Did they give him some sort of medicine for his ears?

They put him on amoxicilin. Are ear infections contagious??

No not really. I dont think so. Amoxicilin is good, just keep giving it to him. He might just be hurting. Hope gets them and it never passes to kristen to I dont think so. Just baby him right now. Thats mostly what he needs. Did you talk to your councelor yet?

No, it's not contagious..... Amox is a good med. My niece got earaches a lot at 1 and then all of a sudden, she never got them anymore....And that is the meds they gave her!
Love,
