This baby just can't get a break.

I just don't get it. My son who is 4 months today has what i believe is pink eye. I am calling his pediatrician in the morning but THE HELL! I mean we wash our hands religiously in this household. I clean with bleach and all that jazz. And somehow my son contracted pink eye and it seems to be bothering both of his eyes.

He has gone through so much since his birth and now when we finally think its all kosher he gets this.

So until I can get him into his pediatrician tomorrow what are some things I can do to aleviate the irritation?

well pink eye is very contagious and he could have picked it up wile he was outside or in the store ect.

squirt some breastmilk in his eye, maybe that'll help.

Really?

Quoting NICKEL☮POLIS:" Really?"

works for clogged tear ducts...so why not? idk.

Ya, breastmilk cures pink eye.

Strange but true!

YES, squirt breastmilk in his eyes till they are a bit milky. Do it several times a day and it should clear it up within 2-3 days. Jaxin had the start of pink eye and I squirted ninny milk in his eyes every time we nursed. The pinkness was gone by the end of that day and the next day, it was GONE.

i just looked it up...hrm. i never would have thought of that.

well when he woke up and i saw the discharge i wiped it away with a clean cool damp washrag and its less irritated. he has a dark red splotch on his left eye though. just on the top.

Boobie milk...tooo the rescue! That is what I clear Jaxin's clogged tear duct from one of his eyes every morning.

i also gave him so tylenol for his teething and his eye...it doesn't seem to be bothering him too much. he woke up chuckling.

OH GOD I TRIED SQUIRTING IT INTO HIS EYES AND IT GOT INTO MINE. SCREW YOU BOOBS!!!!

HAhahaha, I did that earlier too. I laughed and looked up at SO, he about fell over laughing cause I had breastmilk DRIPPING from my eye brows!
