My Baby Is Sick! New to Town, Recommend a Pediatrician.

We just moved to Longmont, and my baby will be 1 next wednesday. She has a cold, runny nose, with clear mucus, congestion, cough, and watery eyes. She went to the ER with 103.2 on Sunday and got antibiotics for a middle ear infection. She doesn't have fever anymore, but her cold is worse and she now has diarrhea and possibly a little yeast rash. *sigh*....Anyway, if anyone has any advice please let me know. I am also looking for a pediatrician who is open to alternative medicine, my husband is an acupuncturist, and we are trying to go the 'vaccine free' way. Let me know! Thanks, guys!!!

What can I do next?

Hi L.! I just recently moved here as well. I also asked for a pediatrician who was open to alternatives and okay with the vaccine free way. It was recommended by several to try Dr. Roy Steinbock with Mindful Pediatrics in Boulder. This may be too far for you to go but I can tell you that he is fabulous. If you don't mind driving to Boulder you should definitely check him out. He is the only doctor in the practice and he gives you your own appointment so there are no other sick kids waiting around with you and you get in right away. His website is www.mindfulpediatrics.com and his number is ###-###-####. Good luck to you and I hope that your daughter feels better soon!

Hi L.,

We just moved here too! I have found a great pediatrician at Cornerstone Pediatrics in Louisville and Boulder - their number is ###-###-####.

and as far as the rash and diarrhea - its from the antibiotics for the ear infection - my son had the same issues - I got triple paste cream at any drugstore and that helped right away - they say that if you give your child a piece of chocolate with the medicine it helps with the diarrhea - interesting huh?

hope this helps!
