I have to admit that I was a little unsure about how she was feeling because the only time that she complained about her ear hurting was when I was trying to get her to take a nap. I didn't want to chance it though so I decided to take her to the doctor. Kids have a very special way of making you look like an idiot some times.
Not only was she not running a fever but my child was doing cartwheels and acting like a crazy woman. I'm pretty sure that no one believed a word that I said about her complaining about her ear hurting. My ego was saved when the doctor confirmed that she did have an ear infection in both ears.
I'm not sure what genius thought it would be cool to make the medicine dropper look like a syringe but Julia was terrified. You would have thought I was trying to kill her by the way she was acting when I gave her the medicine. Geez. I need to get her started on swallowing pills ASAP.
Really, Target? |
I'm off to NY! Any suggestions on what to do in NY at Christmas time?
I'm sorry that your kiddo was scared of the Target dropper. My kids love that thing. The only thing that bothers me is when they give it to me. WTF. Granted it was cough syrup with codeine, but I feel fairly confident that I would have still been able to manage measuring out 2 tsp into a little cup thing.
ReplyDeleteMy kid loses that medicine syringe, haha. She actually begs for Motrin at this point in teething. :)
ReplyDeleteHoly mackerel! That thing is scary looking! I don't think I'd be able to use that on myself!
ReplyDeleteHave a great trip to NY!!
