Conjunctivities

He got his conjunctivities from his grandfather and I thought it was too heaty that he had red eyes. Too late to bring him to doctor, we had to be very careful not to rub our eyes. Like the doctor said the next day, the glasses do act as a shield to reduce chance of infection and ppl wearing glasses are more unlikely to rub their eyes as its inconvenient to do so. And so very quickly Daddy got it, not me.
Well, the very first night before we went to see the doctor, BB must had had a very itchy uncomfortable eye. He was so cranky till late night and did not want to sleep! I cradled him in my arms and rocked him since 1am till 3am. Prayed non-stop, he finally calmed down to sleep on his own. Couldn't bear to see his eyes all swollen and covered with yellow green mucus. Quite anxious, I quickly checked out the seriousness of Conjunctivities in young babies if it will cause blindness....blahhh.... Its a common disease hehe. Phew...and I went back to sleep.

He recovered but I don't know why his inner corner of the eye is redder than the other. Under speculation.
