First Ear Infection

My poor baby! It started Wednesday night. We gave her bananas and she was up every 1-2 hours screaming with terrible gas. No more bananas for Emily for at least a month.
Thursday night was not any better. We had to rock her back to sleep and finally by 3 am decided to just keep her in the bed with us. As long as she was sleeping close by, she was fine.
I thought it was the bananas still in her system. She had no fever and was fine during the day.
Friday night came and she was beyond miserable. She had a fever of 100.7 so I gave her some Tylenol and we went to bed. I woke up early Saturday morning and took her to the doctor. As soon as the doctor checked her ears, she started screaming.
She is now on amoxicillan two times a day. She doesn't like the medicine. It is raspberry flavored. What ever happened to bubble gum?
She is doing much better and sleeping through the night again.
