It's not pinkeye but the doctor gave us some eye drops and a prescription for antibiotics just in case she gets worse while we're on vacation. Whew! I'm relieved! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-if-its-pink-eye#post-977300 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 08:03:43 +0000 littlek 977300@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it looks like pinkeye too. I'd definitely take your LO to the doctor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-if-its-pink-eye#post-977295 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 08:02:58 +0000 purrpletulips 977295@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Your LO looks like my DD when she had pinkeye. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-if-its-pink-eye#post-977262 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 07:51:15 +0000 littlek 977262@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>B had pink eye and I noticed it because how goopy his eyes were, I don't remember if they were red. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-if-its-pink-eye#post-977251 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 07:45:41 +0000 KayKay 977251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pink eye = conjunctivitis = the lining and of your eyelid and white part is red/swollen. From the pic, I can't tell if the white part of the eye is red or not, but that's usually the best indicator.</p> <p>If the eyes are swollen/goopy without the white part being red, it might be an ear infection that has backed up into the sinuses. When my LO has an ear infection, she never seems bothered by the ears, but always has goopy eyes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-if-its-pink-eye#post-977230 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 07:32:08 +0000 T.H.O.U. 977230@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyBoecksMom: I was told that if you pull the bottom eyelid away from the eye and look down, if that is red, they treat as pink eye.</p> <p>My daughters eyes don't really get red, but since the eyelid is red, they treat her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-if-its-pink-eye#post-977219 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 07:25:53 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 977219@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD woke up with a really bad cold and swollen, goopy eyes. They aren't red but I'm worried it could be pink eye. Can't call the doctor for another 30 min. </p> [attach=1632/13/mqsvv7.600x600.IMG_20130731_071558.jpg]
