This is strange, but for the past couple of days, anytime I sleep, when I wake up I have a hard time hearing in my right ear. It happened to me yesterday when I took a nap, but it only lasted about 20 minutes then it was fine. This morning I woke up at 9:30am and it's now 11:00am and I still can't hear well. It's almost like that ear is under water. I've tried flushing it out and also cleaning it, but nothing is working. Is this a pregnancy thing because I've never heard of this. I don't ever get ear infections so if this is one I don't know how to tell. It doesn't hurt, it's just worrying me because I can hardly hear. It feels like it's plugged up with something. Anyone else ever had this or know what it could be? Thanks.
