Ear Infections & Antibiotics: Natural treatment for Ear Infections?
Since becoming pregnant I have stopped nursing my 3 1/2 year old daughter. I just couldn’t do it anymore. That was about a month ago. She now has an ear infection. The first she’s ever had, which I am suspicious is a result of weaning. I feel extremely guilty over having to wean her and this infection only makes it worse. I don’t want to put her on antibiotics as she’s never had those either. So, I need help figuring out how to get rid of this once and for all.

So, my question is which of your products will best suit my needs?
