[weestar21]

ive just notticed colbys right eye is all bloodshot at the right side and on the bloodshot part is like a bit of sleep but i dont think its sleep. Last night she screamed for about 25 mins and i couldnt settle her i thought she had a sore tummy but i think she has scratched her eye and im a bit worried incase it gets infected

Is she from the right planet, most of babies hair falls out. Kacy has a ball Patch.

I hope cobly is feeling better

Colbys ok her hair is normal to me so im noteven going to stress over that however i took her to the pharmacy today as they drops made her eye all pussy, the pharmasist looked at her eye (made her scream) and told me to take her to teh opticians Got to see an optician who said there is nothing they can do as they arent a doctor or pharmasist so then sent me bk to the chemist. Who then said i will have to wait and see a gp on monday its like getting past from pillar to post with all these differnt people all iwanted to know if it was infected and would it cause any damage grrrrr

It doesnt seem to be bothering her today just a wee bit watery but still very red and bloodshot.

Hopefully i will get an appointment on monday but knowing my luck it will be a week on monday before she gets seen and by that time it would prob have cleared itself up

sorry for the moan again

It could be a spot, zack had problems with his eye when he was born. I had to keep cleaning it. He couldnt open it sometimes when he woke up, so I had to clean it.

If your really worried I would take her to the doctors, it will put your mind at rest.

its definatly a scratch hun you can see the line its no bigger than her thumb nail and its just at the left hand side right next to her (gosh dont know if its called the iris (sp?) or pupil...lol but its the circle bit and the scratch is right on the white part if that makes sence) its a bit better today no gew from it so far but its still very red and bloodshot. This HV is comming tomoz maybe she will come up with something stupid like its her hair thats falling into her eye

will let yous know how it is in the morning if its still teh same i will ring the surgery

take care all
