Cyclops

I just can’t seem to catch a break lately! My sweet boy gave me his eye infection….and over night it turned in to a double eye infection. Hudson had his last week and was better 24 hours later…I, on the other hand am worse. I have never had any eye problems before….don’t wear contacts, never been to the eye doctor, never needed drops….so this is all new to me. Thanks for all your get well messages on my last post! You all are so sweet. I’m home resting my eyes today and will be back with a new breastfeeding guest post tomorrow!

    Want advice on how to get rid of the infections quickly without synthetic medicine? Put a few drops of your breast milk in your eye a couple times a day. I'm not kidding- it's magic. My daughter had fifths disease a while back which caused her to get painful bumps on her mouth. There's no medicine to help get better but I put breast milk on it and it was miraculously gone in two days. 🙂

    I can't believe it!! You kids have passed lots of germs back & forth to each other this winter. Spring is here so hopefully the sunshine & warm weather cure all the illness. Feel better real soon .

    Do you have a spam problem on this website; I also am a blogger, and
    I was wondering your situation; we have developed some nice procedures and we are looking to trade methods with
    others, please shoot me an email if interested.

    Of course you still manage to look cute with a double eye infection. Hope you're feeling better! 🙂

    Ethan had an eye infection last year the week before his birthday party and it was better in 24 hours, too. I, of course, caught it and was panicked I'd have to spend his birthday party looking like Cyclops because it never went away, but eventually it went away two days before the party. Oy! Hope you feel better!
