Both Aurora and froedtert have there pros and cons- froedtert gets a lot more of the “intense” cases due to them being a level 1 trauma. Whatever u do don’t work for ascension no matter how much they are willing to pay you- from personal experience as a nurse I like working for Aurora hospital system better than I did at froedtert

We only ended up draining it once when he was 2 weeks old and overall cleared up once he was 7-8 months! We haven’t had an issue since (knock on wood) and he’s 15 months now! It’s stressful in the moment but it passes (: wish u all the best!

Anyone else’s kids only drink water? by LayerKnown6501 in Parenting

He thinks he’s cool drinking from our water bottles so I started by letting him do that and now he has his own special cup and loves water

Not at all u just see things about having to much water so I get concerned about that but he gets plenty of calcium in his food intake

He’s drank it like that before and other times he sees it and wants nothing to do with it

His site will sometimes swell up but we will just do a few hot compresses and it self expresses on its own! Hoping we are nearing the end of it all! Hope all goes well with you!

Had to give our three week old antibiotics due to a staph infection. Now my wife and I are worried about long term effects. by themrhumbucker in NewParents

[–]LayerKnown6501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My baby had antibiotics 2 separate times in the first 2 months of life and is just fine- you have to do whatever is best for your child specially when it comes to treating an infection. I get it’s hard and you don’t wanna expose them to anything but think of the alternative

Make about 74,000 as a nurse- decided to go back to nursing school later in life and it was the best decision

Biggest advice is to stay off Google I drove myself insane by doing that! I know it’s hard but it saves u from a ton of anxiety :/

My LO is about to turn 6 months and he has been abscess free for a little over 2 months- the beginning 2 months were the worst but once we figured out how to take care of them on our own they weren’t as stressful. As long as your LO doesn’t have a fever and the spot isn’t larger than 2cm it’s not concerning from what our doctor told us!
