So I know everyone's LO's get sick, and Laurel gets sick often, but she's gotten her worst thing yet and I just need to put my T&P request out there. Horrible ear infection (4th one this year), crud in the lungs and a temperature. She normally sleeps well from 7:30 to 7- she's been getting up at 4, crying a miserable cry. It took me 45 minutes to get her back to sleep this morning. She's just so sad looking and it hurts my heart.
I'm hoping that she heals quickly, nothing gets worse (ped said if we didn't do an inhaler for the lungs it could easily go to pneumonia), and better sleep for everyone.
TIA, ladies, I know your thoughts and prayers work wonders.
Re: T & P's Please....
Awww poor baby! Tons of T&P's coming!!!
I can relate. DS has his third ear infection and he is only 4.5 months old! This one is pretty bad in one of his ears and the doctor has us giving him Tylenol every 4-6 hours for 48 hours. If you are not doing it, you might want to try it. He has stopped the late night/early morning screaming.

This hurts my heart too! Poor Laurel! You and baby girl are definitely in my T&Ps, mama! {{HUGS}}
ETA: When Max had his really bad ear infection/high-high fever episode, the doctor told us to alternated Tylenol and Motrin every two hours for 48 hours (this equals out to every four hours for each). You may already know this, but I thought I would give you this advice in case you hadn't heard it. This kept both the pain and the fever at bay.

I'm going to make an AWESOME big brother.
Sending good thoughts and praying - sick babies are no fun. I hope she really is on the mend so you can all get some rest!
