DS has an ear infection AGAIN. I was up all night listening to him snore, because I can’t sleep next to a snorer. He never snores. Every once and a while he’d wake up and say “bay boos” (his word for he wants to nurse). Every once and a while he’d wake up crying and saying “ow ow” and hold his ear, then go back to sleep.
The only time I didn’t see the clock was between 5am and 6am. I would have slept past 6am but the dumb cat came in and started meowing and hitting my feet because she wanted to be fed. I didn’t get up and feed her.
His doctor said that something possibly in the house is causing us to constantly be sick. I don’t know about that, but I can’t rule it out either. I even have an ear infection, in fact I have a doctors appointment today to make sure it’s healing ok because after 3 weeks I still can’t hear out of that ear. She said that something is making us congested which is not letting the ears drain and is causing ear infections. The dog maybe? The carpets because no matter how hard I try I can’t keep them clean because of the dog, cat and 2 kids?
I’d hate to get rid of the dog, not because I have any great attachment to her, but because Nashville animal shelters are overflowing and sending her there would mean certain death. But if she is the cause of us all being sick all the time, what other choice do I have?
I don’t think it’s the dog though. I think its from taking them to the gym day care and around all those other kids who are really “day care kids”. I “quit” that job 2 weeks ago, because ever since I started in February, the kids have been sick. We got the dog in November, and we wern’t sick. So we will see what happens.
Can someone tell me how
And how much longer now
Am I awake?
