Bright eyes again

I ended up in the Dr’s office on tuesday, I just couldn’t take the eye discomfort anymore.  It was either I went to the Dr or I take a spoon and pop my eyeballs out, and either would have been ok at that point.  She gave me some antibiotic eyedrops and my eyes were 100% better by the end of the night.  yay!

I’m so happy christmas is over, and  no more christmas commercials!  unfortnately dh goes back to work next week.  the kids have spent every waking moment with him on his vacation, so it was a much needed vacation for me too.  even DS has slept most of the night without wanting to nurse.  I have to bundle him up before he falls asleep because he gets cold at night, but if a blanket even touches a single toe of his, he starts screaming “no blanket!  no blanket!”. 

any new years resolutions?  I never have made any, but this year I have a few.  I’ll post them later..

Pink Eye day 3

My eyes felt horrible when i woke up this morning.  I read somewhere to give your eyes a bath in some warm saltwater.  I mixed some up and swished each eye around in it, and oh the relief!!!  It felt awesome!  they are still red and irritated, but feel so much better after a the saltwater bath.

 

 

Pretty Pink Eye(s)

So I went to bed last night, my eye was doing ok.  Still red but the swelling was down.  Then I woke up this morning like this:

 

 

So the disease moved to the other eye!  It was then that I figured out that hitting my head on the window didn’t cause my other eye to swell up after all.  I cought pink eye (conjunctivitis).  It sucks, let me tell you.  very uncomfortable, headache, itchy yucky eyes.  just in time for the holidays!  oh the weather people say it’s supposed to snow christmas night/tuesday morning.  i hope so, my kids would love to see snow!
