First Ear Infection Ramblings

I took Annie to the doctor today.  She has her first ear infection.  She is now on antibiotics for the first time ever.  I know I probably shouldn't fret because it is only an ear infection, which is very common in babies.  But I'm taking it a little harder than I should.  Maybe because its her first sickness?  I dunno. (Awesome grammatical skillz right?)

It makes me think back to when Ems was a baby.  He had ear infections almost every time he cut a tooth.  I think ear infections and teething go hand in hand.  I know, some don't believe that.  Believe as you like and I will believe as I like. 

Anywho... these infections occured often.  I was and still am against tubes before the age of two.  I think most babies grow out of ear infections by that age.  So I refuse to have my child sedated and be given tubes.  Again, some parents are very much pro tube placing.  Thats awesome for you, and I think everyone has to do what works with their own children. (Wow... I rambling)

So... back to ear infections occuring often.  They became, not such a big deal after a while.  Part of life and having a baby, you see.  But now that I have Annie I am saddened all over again by an ear infection.  Maybe because its her first one?  Well, this is making zero sense to me, and someone is fussing. 

Ta ta for now.....
