Ear infection that is! Ashlyn spiked a fever yesterday which did not go away all night or by this afternoon so I took her to the CVS Minute Clinic. Which for those who dont know, there are clinics in some CVS stores that is no appt and does take insurance (not mine though) but it's fast and right up the road. So turns out, she has a double ear infection :( So they gave me Amoxicillin. I have kept her on Tylenol and Motrin around the clock for the fever. She's had her ups and downs today mostly downs but she got a tiny bit better. I had also done some searching online and found out that oils can help soothe pain of ear infections pretty quick. The most popular was garlic oil, but I didnt have that so I just used warm drops of olive oil. It seemed to help. I did that this evening and once I did she went to sleep. So I'll keep watch on her through the night. I just hate seeing my baby girl in pain :( By the way, I do have a web journal I keep just of Ashlyn since she was born, good things, milestones, illnesses etc So any new mom's or mom's to be or anyone who wants can read it too. Please say a prayer for my baby girl tonight.
