sara, I really hope we're sitting near people who share your attitude!

She's actually been fine on past flights (at 2 months and 6 months) so I'm not overly worried, but the ear infection could make this one significantly worse. She went on ABs for it a week ago and has seemed like she's improving, but then today they reported at daycare that they thought she wasn't feeling well again, so I don't really know what to expect for tomorrow.

the baby gets my sympathy, they don't know what the fuck is going on.

So true. Poor kiddo.

Huh, I hadn't heard of the warm moist towels thing, but we'll give it a try. Thanks, msbelle!

Because books.

You could also give her some proactive Motrin or Tylenol.

Yeah, the Tylenol will definitely be making the trip with us. Good call.

Good luck! Yeah, warm wet compresses help. I'm not sure why, because for me they never dislodge anything or reduce pressure, but it FEELS better.

From your fingers to FSM's ears, msbelle.

And for me, as well. I spent today typing up one-page status reports on my projects. 5 down, 49 to go...
