I noticed yesterday afternoon that Crew had some goobies in his left eye. I just said that I would watch it and see what happened. Well by that night around 6 it had gotten really bad his eye was glued shut and there were lots of green goobies. So I dropped Dan off at work and went in to the Dr. I am so glad they could fit me in. They said that it could be 1 of 2 things. Either it is an infection or the tear ducts have not formed yet. SO they gave me an antibiotic and said if this does not clear it up and it does not clear up with in 6 months then they will get an appt. with an eye Dr. I am hoping that it is just an infection and that everything turns out ok. Dan talked to the pharmacist and he said that this is very common and they have a lot of people that come in for this with new borns. Today it is already looking better which makes me feel good.
On a happier note. Crew weighed in at the Dr. and he is now 7lb 11oz. Which is really good he is 11 oz above birth weight and in the hospital he lost 10 oz. SO I am happy about my little porker gaining some! And I went in to the Dr. to check my blood pressure (which I will be doing for at least a month) It was really good and they had me start to go lower on the blood pressure meds. Lets just hope that by the next time I go in I can completely go off of them!! And I weighed and I am VERY happy with the results. I gained a total of 40 pounds during the pregnancy and on Wed. I have lost 44!! ;) YIPEE, I am so happy. Now I just have to keep it up and do some exercise to get even lower!

My baby also has what I am suspecting is a clogged tear duct. I think one of Sammy's kids or someone had that and it cleared up alright. It's just sad when they try to open their little eye and can't cause it's all glued shut :( Glad all else is well!
I am glad that you guys and doing so good!! Hope thing keep improving and you can have some fun adjusting to your cute little guy!
I think that almost all of my kids have had a clogged duct at some point in time. I'm sure he'll be just fine. gosh I miss you guys!! I'm so glad that he's growing and that you're doing well. We sure love you!!
