Ear infection

My 7 month old has an ear infection, she has antibiotics from doctor which she started last night. Are there any things I should avoid? She would normally go to nursery on Monday and Tuesday and goes to water babies swimming on Thursday? Can she go out the house? Thanks Hmm

If she isn't unwell in herself she might be fine to go to nursery, if they are happy to give her the antibiotics. I'd avoid swimming for the week though.

She isn't contagious, so fine to leave the house.

I would avoid swimming. Bath should be ok but I wouldn't wash hair.

Try and keep her ear dry in the bath. She should be fine to go to nursery as long as they will give her the antibiotics. I would avoid swimming.
