I just saw this, thank God she is OK. I do not mean to scare you but pls to cross all yout t's, visit an ENT proff at a private hospital but if your mind is at rest, let it be. I had a nasty experience with my own ear that only God saved me, something the ENT took care of in 5mins. I visited a general doc in govt hosp for a week, they were just doing me trial and error, I decided to visit the specialist hospital (govt owned too), i didn't even know there was something like ENT till they showed me ENT unit. My dear, after narrating my long 1 week ear wahala, the man kept asking why i was seeing a general doc who had no idea nor the tools to look into my ear. they flushed out my ear in a matter of minutes and i felt so much relief after that.
Since then... so my sister, Your baby is too small to talk about her feelings or how well she can hear or if sounds are echoing etc. I am sure its not only pain the ENT will look out for. Again, I am not being NEGATIVE, just see someone who takes care of the ear to make sure your baby is OK.

I am so pained by the way some govt hospitals operate, its not like its a big deal if you see an ENT, afterall its your money. A woman who just recently opened a tailoring ready to wear shop in my area, she was pregnant, they said she had tummy ache and went to the hospital (govt) to complain, those people sent her back home that it was normal, no scan, no heartbeat check, nothing!!! This woman died, that was when they discovered that her baby had been dead. I am so pained, i pass by her shop for a week now and my mood changes. May God help us

Now I'm scared, the general hospital here said you have to pass through a general practitioner first who will first access the situation and determine if a specialist will see you, he thought me how to touch some parts of the ear for pains and so far baby girl has been good, but for a second and more professional assessment we will visit a private hospital in ikeja tomorrow.. I pray everything is fine if not my husband will put all the blame on me for loving my work more than my children... thank you very very much

The doctors are often overbooked that's why. It's not just a Nigerian thing. Specialists are often overbooked in public hospitals which makes it really difficult to see them. I've found that the key is to exaggerate your pain cheesy

How do we now exaggerate the pain when my baby was running up and down the hospital, the almost drove us out of the hospital sef because my baby almost tore a file, the nurses where just asking me.what it was we actually came to do..

Ah Pele o, but permit me to laugh fess grin grin grin grin grin

Reminds me of my own final year 'attacks' from my village pipu. cheesy

In my final year, while working on my project, I was bitten by electric insect. Don't ask me the botanical name biko, grin I just know it's one insect that will bite you and it will look like they poured acid or fire burnt you.
On my face of all places. sad
I didn't go out for like weeks, and when I went unavoidably, people kept staring at me like I was involved in a terrible accident. Chai

As soon as I recovered from that one, one night, just about midnight, I was sleeping inside my mosquito net when something crept into my right ear.
People of God, cheesy it was a baby cockroach! It entered my ear and stayed there for 3 good days! I almost ran mad. School clinic quack doctors kept inserting forceps into my ear until blood came out. Chai.
They were telling me nothing was there. undecided
On the night of the second day, my mum went crazy and ordered me to come home early the next morning.
I got home and went straight to work to meet her. She just took me to one of their specialists who took me to the theatre to flush my ear. It didn't take up to five minutes and the cockroach flushed out! That was when I even knew it was a cockroach. I was thinking maybe a mosquito.

Abeg remembering it gives me Chills. Make I stop here on the chronicles of my village people grin cheesy

Long time sis, taking care of baby takes all my time wink we are doing fine. How are you and my baby, kiss kiss to lo
We are fine sis. Baby had a major fall from bed and I cried. My heart broke cos I felt I couldn't protect her. She cried a little and is OK. Hubby consoled me saying there is no way a child won't fall. That she will still fall when trying to stand or walk. At least those words gave me relief... smiley Motherhood is not easy though its fun and a blessing at the same time.

Hmm that's how their frustrations drove me to a private ENT clinic at Ikeja in my own time... Don't even want to tell that story but I ended up back at general hospital.

When you get there, let them just look at the ear with their thingy first and tell you if everything is ok. Make it clear you just came for examination. If they want to do anything else make sure it's the real doctor abi owner, he'd prolly be a rogue doctor from general hospital. If it's all these nurses and baby doctors, and they want to do anything more than just examination, gbawa kwa.

You can go back to the doctor and complain that the ointment was to harsh, they would just recommend something else
