So earlier today I was out on some much needed time on my own when I get a hysterical call from DH who said Peter was bleeding from his eye! After completely freaking out, we worked out he wasn't bleeding FROM his eye, but NEAR his eye- big difference! The poor mite had been toddling about with a board book, tripped over and landed face first on the corner of the book.
He's given himself a nice cut and graze a little bit below his eye and scratches around the upper and lower eyelids. They have swollen during the day and the bruising has started to come out- I am pretty sure he will wake up with a nice shiner tomorrow. It was impossible to get anything cool onto his eye to stop the swelling unfortunately.
I don't really think there is much I can do, but just after any anything I might be missing if anyone has BTDT? His actual eye seems fine, thank God, not even any broken vessels or anything, so I'm not concerned about that.
It probably looks worse than it is- looks like he's been in a pub brawl!!
