Just the past 4 ish days. </p> <p>I made her an appointment this afternoon. Better safe than sorry. Thanks ladies! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-teething-cause-waterygunky-eye#post-2235038 Mon, 13 Jul 2015 13:04:32 +0000 MarieJ 2235038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It sounds like a blocked tear duct to me. We just had it. Our pediatrician recommended that we massage the inner corner of her eye a couple of times a day and it cleared right up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-teething-cause-waterygunky-eye#post-2235030 Mon, 13 Jul 2015 13:00:11 +0000 avivoca 2235030@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Watery/gunky eye(s) are usually a sign of infection for us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-teething-cause-waterygunky-eye#post-2235024 Mon, 13 Jul 2015 12:57:21 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 2235024@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>K had a blocked tear duct until she was about 1, and it always gunked up badly when she was sick or teething. But, it was a problem that we noticed pretty soon after birth- have you noticed a watery/gunky eye before?</p> <p>Worth getting it looked at, in case it is an infection. A little breast milk always seemed to help with the worst of the gunk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-teething-cause-waterygunky-eye#post-2235021 Mon, 13 Jul 2015 12:55:10 +0000 2PeasinaPod 2235021@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Watery, yes...gunky, no.

No swelling, no redness. Just slightly grouchy. She also has been drooling a ton and her bottom gums are white. So I'm wondering if it could be related to teething or if she may have an infection and I should take her in... </p>
