Poor Little Guy

Nicholas was sick with a cold for almost 2 weeks. It would seem as though it was getting better and then just come back. I finally took him to the Dr and he has 2 ear infections. He didn't complain at all about his ears hurting. This is his second ear infection in his 3 years of life. The first one was just in 1 of his ears. Dominick gets ear infections still as an adult so I would say it's genetics. The shape of the ear or sinus area. I breastfed for almost a year before he stopped, he liked feeding himself and sippy cups.

Also, when Nicholas gets a cold it triggers asthma symptoms. So when we were at the Dr they they tested his breathing, oxygen levels and all of that pretty intensely. Nicholas has never been around cigarette smoke EVER (I am very picky about that one). Again Dominick gets asthma symptoms when he has a cold too. Basically we have to keep inhalers on hand at all times, just in case.

Pretty much we can blame all of this on Dominick ... just kidding.

On a positive note, Nicholas is already sleeping better and not coughing as much. He has been taking his medicine very nicely. He even holds the mask on his face by himself for the inhaler.


Also, after about 9 hours of work between Dominick and I ... Dominick's computer game is fixed and running just fine.
