Hi mums - not sure if this should be in the sleep section, but the root of the problem is the fact that my 18 month old is currently suffering from her 4th ear infection of the last few months. I am slowly morphing into a zombie mum as i'm hardly getting any sleep - she tends to wake hourly from midnight when she has the infections. Its worse than the newborn days :(
I feel like this has been going on for months and months. I just want her to get better. I've searched on here and seen lots of people saying grommets saved the day. When I asked the doctor if there was anything that could be done about it he said it's just her 'weak spot' and just printed off another prescription of antibiotic.
I am at my wits end and finding it very hard to cope on so little sleep. She has always been a bad sleeper anyway. Guess I maybe just want to hear from parents who have had similar issues with their little ones and whether they grew out of getting ear infections and what you did to improve sleep for everyone (!)
thanks
