    Like myringotomy/tympanostimy tubes? Sleep is super important but you could try - this is gonna suck for you too - waking him up every 3 hours and alternating between tylenol and advil (like tylenol on hour 0, advil on hour 3, etc). At least until you get your pediatrician appointment, might help. That's what we do at work.

      Yeah. Its happened maybe twice since Tuesday. He naps fine. He's totally himself for the whole day. When he wakes up he refuses a bottle, refuses a Binky, he's just crying and crying.

      He's generally a bad sleeper to start with. This is different though. Thanks for the advice!

        It's not unheard of for their to be pain up to a week, but it's usually pretty mild. I wonder if it's postural cause it's only happening at night... anyway, yeah best to follow up with the doctor.
