Callie Got Ear Tubes.

Callie bug has been getting a lot of ear infections lately so it was time to get her tubes, just like her brother. Jakobe also got tubes put in when he was 14 months old. Callie is 11 months old. She got to wear a cute little yellow hospital gown. She looked so adorable. They put her 'tag' on her ankle and she enjoyed playing with it and chewing on it. The procedure took less than 10 minutes and she was in our arms again in the recovery room. When she woke up, she was very fussy, hungry, and confused. We took her home about an hour after surgery. She slept most of that morning. Got up to play a little in the afternoon, then went back to sleep. When she woke up in the evening, she was all smiles and had fun playing with her brother. She's a tough little girl. I'm sure she feels much better not having the pressure in her ears and head. She has a lot of bloody discharge from one ear. The doctor said when he cut into both ears, puss just oozed out. Yuck! We have to give her ear drops 3 times a day for 10 days and a antibiotic 3 times a day for 10 days also. She's back at daycare today and doing great!!!
