Grrr. Little man has fluid on both ears again. We had rescheduled his booth test for Tuesday, but now we have to wait a week or 2 before we can get him in the booth to see what he is hearing with the aids. We are still going to his first therapy appointment on Friday.
And to make it worse poor little guy has bronchiolitis AGAIN! It's the same thing that put him in the hospital over Thanksgiving, but he's older and stronger and EVEN tougher!!! He never ceases to amaze me with his resilience.
We go back to his pediatrician and ENT on Monday. Hopefully his lungs will be doing better and the ENT will say the fluid is gone. This will be the 4th time he's had fluid in his ears within his 6 months of life. Unfortunately he is really heading towards getting tubes put in his ears. With the hearing loss they are more aggressive about handling fluid, because fluid decreases the amount of hearing you have and is uncomfortable - so needless to say he hasn't been able to wear his hearing aids in the past couple days :(
Keep good thoughts flowing to this little man.

Good luck with the tubes, if he needs them. Our little guy has had two sets of tubes and they've really helped keep everything clear.
Sorry to hear about the fluid. Lucas had tubes put in his ears too, as a result of fluid. The doctor also did it as a precaution, so that it wouldn't postpone his CI surgery. Hang in there!
