Went to Urgent Care tonight and found out I have a bit of an ear infection, inflamed sinuses, and probably strep. blech!

The Dr. on call was really blunt and didn't seem to care that I am still BF'ing, saying, "well, she's almost 1 anyway" - not sure if that means she thinks we don't need to BF anymore, or if she means the medicines she prescribed wouldn't affect LO too much?

Prescribed Amoxicillin and told me to take Sudafed. I'm scared to do Sudafed since it will likely dry me up since LO is older and I only seem to make "just enough" for her needs. I asked about the Amoxicillin and the Dr. said she could get Thrush (ugh, again? No thanks!)

What would you do? Has anyone been in a similar situation? I'll probably avoid the Sudafed. But what do you think about the antibiotic? Do you think LO is old enough, I don't have to worry too much about the possibility of thrush? I don't pump anymore b/c 1) LO doesn't take bottles, and 2) I barely get anything when I pump.

Thanks in advance!
