Wally's Ear Oil

The most common use of antibiotics in babies/toddlers is for ear infections and from my research many studies have found that children who take antibiotics for ear infections have more recurring EIs than those who let the infection clear up naturally. Unfortunately, many of these children end up with tubes also :( In my experience, it's always hard to tell if a child has an EI... babies/toddlers pull at their ears when they are teething, tired, or have an actual ear issue. Lila never has a fever, but at times does tug on her ears so I've suspected she had an EI. At her 6mo appt, Lila's old pediatrician said it looked like she was just getting over an EI and she prescribed an antibiotic to her. I got home and thought "WTF? Why would I give her an antibiotic when she has just gotten OVER the EI? Her body fought it!" Pissed me off that the pedi would do that... so we never went back. Anyway, I started googling and talking with some Mom's online about natural remedies for ear issues. One Mom suggested Wally's Ear Oil. I bought it and have LOVED it ever since. If Lila is tugging or rubbing her ears I will use the oil for 2-3 days and then she is absolutely fine. Every time we go to the pedi she says her ears look great. It also works for swimmer's ear, which we are now facing with so much swimming. I buy it at vitacost.com-- there is a link on the side of the blog.
