We figured the baby was going to need them eventually, but we hoped to wait and have it done at the same time that he goes in for his next surgery which is on June 2nd so that he wouldn't have to be put under anesthesia twice. We saw the ENT doctor today because he is in the midst of his fourth ear infection and he is only three months old. He gets an ear infection...goes on antibiotics...finishes them and then within a week or so has another. We have to rotate types of antibiotics so now he has to take a smelly yukky one that he hates 3X a day and it isn't good for him to constantly be on one. He is super cranky right now and the ENT doctor said today his ears are full of fluid and pressure and he really shouldn't wait until June so he will probably get them next week :no: another hospital visit. She went over the procedure and explained it all to us but I was really tired and didn't ask enough questions about every day things to know about at home so I am wondering if anyone else that has been through this has any tips, tricks or advice to share.
They don't look like tubes, by the way, they look like teeny, tiny barbie size white donuts.
(can you tell I'm sleep deprived?)
