not sure if this is true or not.

but i posted a thing on here last night about my baby girl having a lot of eye goobers and what i could do to get rid of them my mom told me that breast milk is good for everything and that i sound put some in her eye...i did it but she's not awake yet so im not sure if it worked...anyone else heard of breastmilk being good for just about anything having ot do with stuff like this for babys?

my son has eye boogers alot and hes 6 months...he has a blocked tear duct...hes had it since birth...they will suction it out at 9 months if it has not cleared on its own!

wtf how do they suction it out...thats weird haha. Yhup Carleigh has had it since the day we brought her home =[ it just looks so uncomfortable for her.

My daughter had this as well. It never seemed to bother her and I would just clean her up every morning. They said it was a blocked duct as well and she may have to have surgery to correct it. It fixed itself when she was about 2 and we haven't had many problems with it since and she is 5 right now.

Yep breastmilk is has wonderful healing properties. However I'm not sure if it'll help with eye "goobers" I know that it will clear up pink eye. Eye boogers could be drainage from a stuffy nose and is normal. Also could be a blocked tear duct, but if it doesn't seem to bother her and she has no other symptoms I wouldn't worry excessively about it.

i had a blocked tear duct as a baby too..
and unfortunately STILL deal with it to this day.

Make sure you use warm compresses.. it helps to open it up and get circulation going...verrry important
