Well, this week we had a very yucky first...Olivia's first ear infection. :-( It came on pretty quickly, so we are hoping it passes just as quickly. When we went to the doctor last week, they checked her ears and everything was fine. By that evening she had started to break out in a rash. Over the next two days the rash started to spread. She was also becoming increasingly fussy and was having trouble sleeping through the night (like her mama she loves her night time sleep!). So, we went back to the doctor and sure enough her right ear was infected. Fingers crossed that the Amoxicillin does the trick.
In the mean time, infant acetaminophen appears to be taking the edge off. We have also been trying to take it easy and rest at home. Olivia has taken a liking to Ferris Bueller and his day off...
Even Tinker is trying to make poor Olivia feel better. He agreed to be her pony...
In the midst of the ear infection, Olivia's appetite (thankfully) has not been affected. This week she weighed 12 pounds, 8.2 ounces.
