My poor baby

Madelyn woke up this morning with a very puffy eye! I took her into the doctor and he gave us drops that we have to use four times a day for five days! My poor baby has pink eye! I don't know how the heck she got it but I'm thinking it was from that dumb Wal Mart checker who thought it would be a good idea to put her germ infested hands on my sweet baby's face. Grr why don't people think before they do stupid stuff like that. I for one know that babies that small, or any age, can easily get stuff like that! Anyway the doc also said to get a baby laxitive for her because she's been so backed up. Wow that stuff works fast and she is feeling better :) She was pushing so hard for two days that sometimes she would throw up because she was grunting so much. Hopefully things will start clearing up for her and she will be back to her sweet little self :)

Oh and I should mention that she gained 2 pounds in almost two weeks! She is now 8 pounds 4 ounces! The doctor was impressed. That's my girl :)

Poor little girl. I don't know why people at wal-mart think they can touch babies. I sometimes keep Greg covered just so they won't touch him. Hopefully her pink eye will clear up fast.
I am glad that laxative helped her. That isn't any fun.
Love,
Kylee

Poor baby!! It sends me NUTS how people can't keep their hands to themselves with new babies. I hope she gets feeling better soon!
