2nd double ear infection in a month!

My 2 year old literally had 1 ear infection his first year of life and then he turns 2 and we are in and out of the ped every 2 weeks! He had double last month, at the recheck ped said he was totally clear, then 2 weeks later another double! He has had his share of colds and I am not doing anything differently (humidifier, saline, elevate head of crib)---what gives? Anyone else deal with this?

Re: 2nd double ear infection in a month!

Sorry to hear he's having issues.

Yes, I've dealt with it. AJ had pretty much non-stop ear infections for a good 6months straight. Oddly enough we sort of got used it to. They finally put tubes in her ears in January (the earliest they'd allow for her age). We got to be pros at seeing any itty bitty sign of a new ear infection... however some just hit us without a single symptom.

Hope he feels better soon.
