Blue iris, green goop, pink sclera
It’s like a rainbow!
My mom called me at work yesterday at 1 to say that Eirinn looked like she had pink eye. Perfect. I left work and took her to the walk in clinic. Yup. Cunjunctivitis it is. Perfect. I don’t know where she got it; we have a few possible points of origin – a birthday party the week before, the gross vackseen clinic that Eirinn insisted on crawling around on the night before, any number of stores she had been recently. But it doesn’t really matter. We just have to keep everyone’s hands washed constantly, make sure we don’t touch our eyes, keep Eirinn’s eye goop-free, and put her drops in twice a day.
It’s pretty gross, but she’s my baby and we do gross things for our babies.
I’m pretty sure Eirinn’s going to thank me for posting pictures of her oozing infected eye on the internet when she gets older. Well, Future Eirinn, you’re welcome.
oh no – we have yet to experience this…hope she feels better soon.
It seems to be gone! We still have three more days of drops, but her eyes are clear and goop free.
She’s getting a Barbie for letting me do the drops all week. Yes, she’s spoiled. What she doesn’t know is I made up this prize because I bought the Barbie on a whim, changed my mind about giving it to her for Christmas, accidentally broke the plastic box it came in, and now I can’t take it back.
All I can say is POOR BABY!! Hope she’s better soon.
