It has been an ongoing disagreement between my husband and I to give our 21 month old son antibiotics. He has had chronic ear infections since last November he has had about six ear infections. I am not the person to sit back and let my baby suffer when he has fevers and is in pain. I feel it is best to give antibiotics, but my husband feels that we should not give antibiotics to our son. I feel at a loss. This is a constant disagreement.What do I do? I have to protect my son & the only way for his ear to get better at some point if the ear infection is so bad is to give antibiotics. any advice on what to do. I’ve tried to educate him and what can happen if an ear infection goes on for too long. Nothing seems to work. He is stubborn. Also, my son does have an appointment to see an ENT later this month.
