I'd offer it to them first and say, If you want it you're welcome to it but I didn't offer it direct because it's a bit grubby.

It's just someone i went to school with i haven't spoken to her for years even though we're fb friends. It's really grubby and old so i will choose the other one who asked i think lol!

OMG Tia :(:(:( My worst nightmare

Im going to have a mini rant.

For Lilys eye infection they have given us a cream that we have to put inside her eye lid at the bottom. But the cream is the same thickness as Lanisoh and hardly comes out of the tube.

How the hell am i meant to hold a baby down, keep her head still and her eye open whilst i put it in :mad:

What were they thinking! Eye drops would of been so much better.

Krystal we are a Spoka house too, also set to purple

EA could you speak to a chemist or GP and explain the problems you are having, my pharmacy is always happy for you to go back if what has been prescribed isn't working.

Katie has had a lot of conjunctivitis and I always go for the drops. I'm a really bad mummy when she gets it now as I wait until she's asleep, no so much of a fight then.

We got them from the out of hours doctor at the hospital, so i dont think my GP would re prescribe unless he sees her. And i would have to wait a week for an appointment. By which point it would of cleared up or got stupidly worse.

Go speak to your pharmacist EA. They may be able to give you something OTC.

Does the cream soften if you put the tube in some hot water (test it before you put it in her eye though)? Or just play with it with warm hands?

I have just been to Ikea, I found the Spoka!!! So thank you for the kind offer GISI, but we don't need one now... Aimee has gone to bed with it glowing purple and over the moon

Glad you found them -were we looking in completely the wrong place?


I must do some ironing too later...joy!

Could you squeeze the cream onto some cotton wool and wipe it over her eye?

Caitlyn got an eye infection and got some drops but I really didn't want to use them so I upped the number of times I was cleaning it with cooled boiled water and it cleared up on it's own in a couple of days...

They were nowhere near the lighting section Mfd, they were in the childrens part but on an aisle end in the direction we were walking on the opposite side to where we were looking so we just sauntered past unawares....

it could be the size teats.

we found that a faster flowing teat -variable or number 2 (tommee tippee/avent) helped a lot.

we moved him up about 2 weeks ago....

im thinking its linked to his napping.... as he's been awful for napping the past 4/5 days, and having visitors who want to be holding him all the time hasnt helped that....:A

EA - doesn't your GP do a triage service? At mine you make a call in the morning, no appointment so you are put on a list for a call back, then either a practice nurse or GP rings you back, you explain the symptoms and they prescribe from there.

I had Katie diagnosed with conjunctivitis at 5 weeks old like that (her first bout too)

I too just go to the chemist and get the drops OTC, but free as they are part of the Minor Ailments Scheme.
