Update

Thanks for all the kind comments. Claire is doing better as far as the allergic reaction. She's still a little reflux-y, but the Zantac seems to help that almost immediately. We are worried that her ear infection hasn't cleared up though, as she's still very fussy today and cries whenever we put her down. She's currently sleeping in her carseat. :-/ The Dr. on call said there was still a lot of fluid back there when he looked this morning. He's also concerned she may have developed croup, so we're doing the steamy shower thing. We might have to start a different antibiotic tomorrow if she's still not better. The Dr. is hesitant to give her anything else, since she can't take the 2 most widely administered classes of antibiotics now due to her reaction, which means whenever she gets sick we have to give her the "really nasty ones" (Dr's words, awesome). Praying she's our smiley girl again in the morning...

Oh so sad! :-( We have rotated through a ton of different antibiotics because with ear infections you have to mix them up every time to keep the ears reacting properly. Anyway, some are definitely harsher on Ben, but the nasty ones we get flavored at the pharmacy and he doesn't seem to mind them like that. Poor little Claire - I really hope she feels better in the morning so you don't have to try anything else. I would be so scared to try anything else!
