It's only December, and I already feel like we are living at the doctor's office this cold and flu season.
SB kicked things off with an ear infection. This was like her third ear infection total, so it wasn't really on my radar. 10 days of antibiotics later...
Nugget had her six month appointment, and as I wrote earlier, had a double ear infection. Since she's been on antibiotics twice recently (ear infection, then respiratory infection) they tried a Z-pac this time - three days of antibiotics for her.
Then, BW had a couple accidents at daycare, and was suddenly waking up every morning with a wet pull-up. I greatly appreciate daycare, because I would probably have been clueless had they not gently suggested that accidents like that can be indicative of a UTI. So, after a doctor visit and urine sample (I'll write more about that later) BW was diagnosed with a bladder infection. 7 days of antibiotics for her. Then, she has to have a repeat urine sample 3 days after finishing the antibiotics. The following week, Nugget is scheduled for an ear recheck to make sure her ears are clear since she's had two ear infections in short order.
Sigh. At least giving birth this year means we met our deductible long ago.
