Well today Alex is 3 months old and we spent part of the afternoon at the doctor's, yet again. Man, I wonder what they think when we walk in there. Some of the nurses know us well. No doubt they're talking about us behind our backs, "Man, I know they're first time parents but they are truly far too paranoid."
Alex's eye has been watering goopy stuff since Friday and by Day 3 we got a bit worried. At times throughout the three days we talked ourselves out of going, hoping it would clear up. Plus we didn't want to look like idiots if it WAS something minor....
Well it turns out it is something minor; she has a blocked tearduct. We are to apply warm compresses for 15 minutes (good luck) three times a day and clean it constantly. There is a 10 percent chance it could require surgery to clear it up...maybe not so minor.
On the bright side, we got out of a parking ticket because the bylaw officer fell for Alex.
