Assalamualaikum wbt.
Alhamdulillah, my little hero has turned 4 months this month. He's getting taller too. It's quite funny when some people think Naufal is aready 8 month old! I'm not worried about his growth since he is fully breastfed. My paed also said the same thing about Naufal's growth. So, keep on growing sayang!!

naufal at 4 month |
What I want to share for this post is about what happened to Naufal yesterday..
He got sore eyes!! :-(
It was another replacement school day for all teachers. No, I didn't send Naufal to the nursery because hubby is around (note : hubby is no longer a cikgu so no sekolah ganti for him). So, everything went well until twas about 6pm. Hubby noticed Naufal's eye discharge was quite unusual. It was watery and slightly yellowish! During that time, he didn't suspect anything weird as it was probably due to tiredness . When I arrived home at 730pm, I was quite shocked to see Naufal's left eyes turned slightly reddish. After a while, the discharge got stickier and Naufal's eyes became too watery. The first thing crossed my mind was......... SAKIT MATA!! Astaghfirullahalazim.... Dealing with eye sore for adult is quite troublesome, and it is even worse for babies right??! We dared not wait to see what would happen next and immediately decided to go to the nearest clinic to get Naufal's eye checked.
At the clinic, Naufal was given an eye-drop and the condition was said to be ok. Alhamdulillah we acted quite fast as the doctor said the infection was at the early stage and can be cured easily. phewww. nasib baik :-) On that night, naufal started to get cranky as he felt uncomfortable with the pain..huhuhu. he even screamed on top of his voice when he woke up in the middle of the night with his eye lashes got glued to his eyes. The sticky discharge became harden when he slept. Hubby and I wiped off the discharge from his lashes by using facial cotton and warm water. We put few drops of the eye-drop given as soon as Naufal able to open his eyes comfortably. What another challenging sleepless night!
And today, I'm glad that Naufal's eyes looked a lot better compared to last night. Alhamdulillah.....
My father in law shared some tips on how to deal with eye sore :
* wipe off the eye discharge with plain water or breast milk while reciting surah Al-Masad . The breast milk also can be applied around the eyes to soothe the pain. (It worked for Naufal too, InsyaAllah). Who would ever thought breast milk helps to cure eye sore kan???
