My 5 month old has had a sticky eye since birth. Mostly just small green eye boogie and a watery eye.

Since yesterday he has been sneezing lots and has a cough. When he woke up this morning said eye was bloodshot and more watery then usual?

Anyone's baby sticky eye get infected? It hasn't looked overly sore until now.

Also in terms of the cough/sneeze baby seems fine in himself no phlegm or runny nose or temp and no one else in household has a cold. Could a sneeze and cough be teething related? Only other thing I though was hay-fever but do babies get hay-fever?? Any help appreciated!!

My DD had sticky eyes from birth and she's grown out of it.

If it looks infected I'd talk to the Pharmacist though Flowers

Probably around 1. She's hot astigmatism so I don't know if it anything to do with that.
