Better to take him than not take him. He may well have whacked his eye before he went to sleep but it's taken this long to come out. He could also be having an allergic reaction to something. If your gut reaction is to take him to casualty then go

HunkerTheInternetPhenomenon · 03/12/2006 14:57

I'd take him in.

Hope he's better soon - if he's not crying, that's a good sign?

Take him to casualtuy just to be sure. Don't panic. nobody will think you are crap.

Glad to know that everything is OK. I think the full stop thing could be your speciality. You know, Cod has her super fast typing and you could have the full stop.

DimpledThighs · 03/12/2006 19:01

glad he is fine - better safe than sorry and I think doctors feel the same!
