Baby Ear Wax

My son is 15 weeks old and seems to have a lot of ear wax. I'm not digging it out but washing inside the outside of his ears with damp cotton wool every day. Is it normal to have a significant ball of wax each day?

My daughter had loads when she was a baby. I think you are doing the right thing. It goes away eventually.

My dd failed her hearing test at birth and at 3 mth she had a specialist hearing test . Form about 4weeks onwards I was seeing lots of wax coming out- but hers is more like large salt grains I was advised just to wipe as you and not probe at all.
