Jenn noticed on Monday that Lillian was pulling on her right ear, but she sometimes does that for comfort so when Jenn mentioned it to me I looked for it but wasn't worried. Looking back I should have connected that to the fact that Lillian has just been sleeping terribly. She was up a ton on Monday night and again on Tuesday night - only sleeping for 2-3 hours stretches. On Wednesday Jenn mentioned again that Lillian was pulling on her ear and I made an appointment for Lillian to go into the doctor's office. Colleen was coming by anyway to help make a cake for Stacey (last day cake) and she was awesome and came early so she could take the little one to the doctor.
Lillian has an ear infection in each ear. Poor kid. We gave her Tylenol and her antibiotics. She had a hard time settling down for the evening, when the Tylenol kicked in she was so much happier she just wanted to play! When she finally did get to sleep around 9pm she slept better than she has in days, only woke up once.
Hopefully she starts feeling better as quickly as the doctors expect her to. She should be feeling better by Friday, though obviously will stay on antibiotics for the full 10 days.
