Re: [Everything doTERRA] updated ear infection ??

Mindy,
You have all the tools without the Benadryl. You were wise to use the Lime, it is great for the ear along with basil, lavender and Frank. When putting the cotton in the ear make sure you do not put too much on the cotton. You only want enough for the fumes to get into the ear not the oil itself.

I would be putting OnGuard on the bottom of their feet also.

ok first off i went through this group's history first. I found that basil grapefruit and frankensence are being recommended. we'll i'm still new and don't have any of those yet. will be getting my frankinsence ordered next friday!!!

anyways my 3 yr old has had a cold for a week now. i thought it was done no coughing at all for 2 nights then today she starts up again. and a queasy stomach and diarrhea. i figured she must have caught something else, or  the mucous is just draining in her stomach all of a sudden. my 1 yr old is sick now too. anyways she complained this afternoon that her ear hurt. i looked and it wasn't red (i have a scope) and it looked clear to me so i figured it was just an ache. I didn't do anything then and by the time bed time rolled around i forgot about it. well an hour later she wakes up screaming her ear hurts. I run down stairs and grab the benedryl to dry her out asap (i know i know but she wouldn't sleep otherwise! serious pain) and i grabbed my lime and debated between melaleuca and lavender, decided to go with lavender. and rubbed both those around her ear lime first over the lymphnode first then lavender all around. so now it left me wondering if lime should now be added for basic ear infection first aid because of its decongestant and lymph drainage abilities.. oh i grabbed and administered before researching, now i'm feeling a little proud like i'm getting the hang of this. I haven't put anything on a cotton ball yet.. but i'm not sure what i'll do there.

any further thoughts? she's sleep now but probably just until the benedryl wears off (oh this is what the pediatrician told me to give her every night before bed when she had a cold to keep the fluid from collecting in her ear, this is also the first time i've done this)
