2:00am call to pediatrician

We had our first 2am call to the pediatrician last night. Darla has been having trouble with her right eye (it's goopy!) and it became worse over night. We took her temperature (which was normal, thank goodness) and talked to the on-call nurse who told us to go to the pediatrician first thing this morning. The doctor checked her out and thinks it is probably a blocked tear duct, but she is checking Darla for infection. She sent us home with prescription ointment just in case, and we will get the test results in a day or two. Hopefully it is nothing to worry about...it seems blocked tear ducts are fairly common. I'm praying it's not infected! She's been out of sorts some this weekend and only gained 1 ounce since Friday. The doctor didn't seem concerned, but recommended we come in for another weight check at the end of the week if Darla doesn't get busy drinking soon.

We're home now and she's resting peacefully. Daddy is back at work and Mommy is trying to calm down!
