ENT

Finally getting around to posting this from last week....

So I take Brody back to the doc (btw 2 kids I've been there 4 times in 3wks) and another trip to the pharmacy which I no longer have to show my ID bc they know me....geez! We have good and bad news. Good first:

Brody is one tough kid! Bc his left ear still has fluid but we have no complaints.

His breathing is back to normal and chest sounds great! Doc was surprised we didn't need a hospital visit bc most babies this young do.

Now the bad:

Since Brody's ear still doesn't look good we are changing antibiotics from amoxicillin to augmetin. Then in 10-14 days we have to go see the Ears, Nose, Throat Doc to have his ears checked. Since he's so young it's usually a sign they need tubes later, so his pediatrician wants to make sure he's okay! Poor Brody! Guess I was only lucky with one kid on that end, but I will pray for him.

Bc of all the antibiotics his belly is ALL out of whack. Making him soooooo gassy and uncomfortable. Bedtime was hard last night bc he was miserable with each toot and laying flat was a no go. Well to help the Doc recommended Biogaia. Pharmacist said its great stuff....and I hope so at $26 for only 5ml!!!! Must be gold, which I'll be the judge of that.

He was well to finally get his HepB shot. Man, he got sooooooo red faced and didn't breathe until I picked him up, let out one cry, and tears streaming down. Breaks my heart! Another news this guy is a CHUNK!! Up to 13 pounds!! Gained basically a pound in a week! His feedings haven't increased a few times he pushes from 4 to 5 oz but its not every time.

I also went to the Doc today and got the green light! Yeah!! My incision looks great.

Random: when the tickle monster comes out Aiden fakes cries then when he's released he jumps back on the "monster". Lol
