But, I'll keep that in mind if we end up with more issues. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fourth-ear-infection-since-october#post-668141 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 12:20:22 +0000 Mrs. Bee 668141@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@katiew92081: poor guy. glad that you were able to get in so quickly though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fourth-ear-infection-since-october#post-668134 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 12:18:46 +0000 KT326 668134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ah poor guy! Glad you were able to get him in quickly! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fourth-ear-infection-since-october#post-668121 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 12:14:51 +0000 birdofafeather 668121@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Glad he was brought in! Side note: have you thought of bringing him to a chiropractor? They can do wonders for kids with frequent ear infections!</p> <p>ETA: I mean to prevent ear infections in the future! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fourth-ear-infection-since-october#post-667253 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 08:02:47 +0000 Dandelion 667253@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did Urgent Care...he was the only one there, so I got him in and out and he was only 30 min late for school. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fourth-ear-infection-since-october#post-667120 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 05:44:42 +0000 Dandelion 667120@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CarrieLouWho: Kidmed sounds interesting, but no. His insurance makes the cost the same no matter where we go. I'm kinda thinking that all the sickies won't be at urgent care this early in the morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fourth-ear-infection-since-october#post-667117 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 05:33:26 +0000 CarrieLouWho 667117@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I vote peds, mostly because it will keep your cost down &amp; urgent care is full of sickies. If DS seems ok, then I think peds should be good.<br /> Our town does have a KidMed that's just for kids urgent care - do you have anything like that if you're thinking urgent care? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fourth-ear-infection-since-october#post-667109 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 04:46:42 +0000 Dandelion 667109@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This morning ds woke up with his 4th ear infection since October. It's also his fourth ear infection EVER. Since starting Kindergarten, we've become way more acquainted with his pediatrician than ever. We used to be once a year well visitors.</p> <p>His ped office is good at getting him right in...the down side is that they don't even open until 8:30, so I have 3 hours of keeping him entertained until I can even call. I'm half tempted to just take him to urgent care since it's closer and open now. He votes urgent care, but he's 5, his vote doesn't hold much. Which would you do? </p>
