I finally got my referral for DD to see the ENT for the ear infections!! WHOO HOOO!! ;D
She got worse while on the antibiotics so now our family doc agrees it is time to see the ENT. We go tomorrow at 1:00 for hearing tests and then to see the doctor and get his opinion.

Good Luck Becky - and you are heading in the RIGHT direction! .. I spent a LOT of time at ENT with Sam when he was younger - he had constant ear infections which resulted in grommets ... when they "fell out" a few years later he started suffernig again ... but if you are looking at "glue ear" as we were this DOES improve as they grow bigger .... apparently it is the fact that our kids are not "tall like adults" that tends to exacerbate "glue" ear ...(and also is why they often get an upset stomach along WITH the ear infections) ... but once they really start getting taller (Sam is now 5'11") it improves a lot ...
GOOOOOD LUCK!!! ...
