My 19 month old had woken up with a red and slightly swollen eyelid. I had an eye infection a week or two ago which ended up making my whole eye swell shut and needed drops fro the doctor. Our doctor has drop I'm appointments in the morning between 8:30 and 10 but I had to take my oldest to school -It is a couple of miles between the school and the doctor and there is no bus so by the time I had got her into school, and rushed there with the double buggy and a flustered three year old they had stopped adding people to the list so I got sent away to go back tomorrow :(
The thing is I know that my eye swelled up overnight and I'm worried the same will happen to her even though at the moment it doesn't took too bad. Would you call up now and ask for an emergency appointment? Or would you leave it until tomorrow morning ( when my husband will be able to do the school run)
