...good time? Not exactly. That's how the doctor described Blake's ear infection today. I took him in because his cough that he had all week was getting worse. He had started wheezing and was 'retracting'. (I learned something new today....when I called the Nurseline to see if I should bring Blake in the nurse asked if he was 'retracting' which means you can see his ribs on his sides when he breathes in because he's having to work hard to take in air). So I take him in concerned about his breathing & his lungs are perfectly fine - what's with the wheezing?!?!?!? But he has a bad ear infection in his right ear. I'm so confused! Blake has been sleeping better than he has for months this past week despite the cough. I've taken the kid in 3 times this winter thinking he has an ear infection & he's been perfectly fine. Then the time I don't even suspect it - he has one! I think Blake was trying to make me look bad because immediately after the doctor was done checking him over he starts pulling on his ear super hard. I SWEAR he hadn't been doing that at home!
So anyway...he's on antibiotics. Hopefully this will help him to get healthy - he's just had one thing after another for so many weeks now! Poor baby!

Good thing Blake seems to be a trooper. Poor kiddo.
