What's best for 3month old with sticky eyes?

[MrsBish]

DD has had sticky eyes for quite a few weeks now. Generally Ok during day, but they get quite gunky overnight.

Have found that when i leave them well alone they seem to clear up OK, and it's when I occationally clean them with cooled boiled water that they get worse!! (yes I am wiping them from tear ducts out with seperate cotton wool etc)

any ideas? they outer edge crease of here eyes look quite sore today (which i suspect is following on from cleaning them yesterday)

Are you breastfeeding? If so, squirt some breastmilk into her eye, works really well.

breastmilk if possilbe

yes am breastfeeding.

how often do i have to try and get the bm in her eye?

breastmilk def best. i second that. shove a bit in both eyes at every feed is wha ti would do...

many thanks. knew i'd get the answer here!

will give it a try.
