I used to get ear infections all of the time! I mean ALL OF THE TIME. Once, I went to the Dr for a bad cold and the Doctor was reading through my records (unusual, my husband was in the Navy, so it was a military clinic.) Anyway, he says to me "It appears that you have a lot of ear infections." I said "Yes, I do" He asked if I showered or took a bath. I told him that I showered. He said what I actually might be getting is something similar to swimmers ear. He said try this, if it works, great, if not, you aren't out more than a few pennies! I tried it and the only times that I've had an ear infections is when I did not do it. My youngest daughter started getting ear infections when she was 6 months old. The doctor was talking tubes. So, I tried it with her. The only time she got an ear infection after that was when she spent two weeks with her aunt.
