Babies: 0 - 3 Months

in the hospital

My DD woke up this morning and her right eye was completely crusted over with green goop. We called the pedi and took her in right away. After waiting an hour to see the Dr they told us she has an infection and we needed to go straight to the hospital. We have been here since about 12:30pm. They have two IVs in her foot and she is just miserable. They said they may have to prob up there to clear the duct and that would cause a black eye. I know this is not life threatening but I can't stop crying. My emotions are still not in check and seeing her hooked up to an IV and in pain hurts so much. She keeps kicking her other foot into her foot with the IVs and then she howls in pain. They estimate we will be here until Jan. 3...I just want to take my poor baby home.

I hope you ladies are having a much better New Years than us!

  • I'm so sorry! DD was in the hospital for a couple of days and I know how hard it is! She had an IV too and it is so hard to see that in your precious baby. Just know she's going to be fine and this will all soon be a distant memory. Big hugs.
