More fun with doctors

As if I didn't feel guilty enough about sending Jessica to daycare when she is so young, she spent 3 mornings there last week and now has ear infections in both ears. She woke up early Saturday morning with a fever. I called the pediatrician and spoke to the on-call dr. He said to bring her in. He checked her out and discovered she had ear infections. She ended up having a bad reaction to the first antibiotic he prescribed (she would throw up immediately after we gave it to her, kind of defeats the whole purpose of giving it to her). I spoke to her regular pediatrician yesterday morning and he called in a prescription for a different antibiotic. She seems to be tolerating this one well and is definitely feeling better. She should be able to go back to daycare tomorrow (Wednesday).
