So I was right..Max has an ear infection. I took hiim to the doctor and she could not believe it because he had no temp and he was not terribly fussy..he just did not want to be put down.
So we went to the chinese herbalist and she gave him some herbs to clear ear heat. So tonight I cooked them up and gave him a dose and he actually is still sleeping. Last night he was up every hour until I laid down with him in the extra bedroom.
Well I am very tired because he also woke up at 4 30 am and did not go back to sleep.
Between the garlic oil and mullien ear drops, the homeopathic ear drops and the chinese herbs..hopefully we will be able to avoid the devil- ANTIOBIOTICS!!
Sleep well!
Sorry to hear he has an ear infection!
hopefuly he’ll respond easily to the remedies you’re using and you can avoid the abx… they are great when you need em, but it’s a last ditch effort! have you taken him to the chiro?
I gave ruby a dose of her homeopathic constitutional remedy tonight and it’s the first night in… forever that she went to sleep easily before midnight. I’m doing a dance!
I’ve noticed that you are pretty into the non-medicinal options for helping you little one, and they seem to work every bit as good as medicine. I think it is very cool!! I would love to know if you get some of the things off the internet, or if I would have to try and find a real life chinese herbalist around where we live in farm country MN.
Hope it clears up quickly!! Poor little guy… and poor mama. Take good care and I hope you get a long nap today.
Ear infections are the worst. I hope little Max is feeling better soon.
Well done you! Mummys always know best! Hope hes better soon!
