Hi Leish, the gromits usually fall out on there own, this can be anytime. He has an appointment for 6 months time for a recheck. Hopefully they wont fall out anytime soon as when I was in the hospital getting the gromits in, there were kids in there getting them for 2nd and 3rd times. He also said he shouldn't get ear infections with the gromits, I think they fall out anywhere between the ages of 2-3 and if they haven't I think they have to take them out. The Dr said he can swim and go under water as long as it is clean water, so a pool is apparently ok due to the chlorine supposedly keeping it clean.

Merry Christmas everyone
