Sick daughter, need advice
12/28/00 4:32 PM
Our holidays were great. We flew back east for 10 days and went to my Nana's 90th surprise birthday party. Of course, many relatives were sick and my 8 month old CAH daughter got her first cold. She seemed to be handling it well but it prolonged and then one night she had a 102.1 fever. We triple dosed cortef and gave advil and got her to the doctor who diagnosed an ear infection. After only 2 doses of amoxicillin she was feeling much better. Unfortunately, she's getting side effects from the antibiotic: yeast diaper rash and now she has diarrhea. I am wondering two things. Should we stress dose for the diarrhea even though it is caused by the antibiotics and not a bug? And, second, has anyone had problems with their daughters having a yeast infection in the diaper area? I am worried that because her labia are fused she could have the infection inside and i can't treat her there. Thank you so much for any advice! You guys are great! Julia
