BM and eye infection

[Ozziehoffy]

Yep, it sure does work! Oskar had gunky eyes a few times early on and even had a bit not so long ago. Mind you getting him to lay still these days is a lot harder..lol. I actually used to just squirt it straight into his eye from my boob. I would feed him first cos then the milk came out easier. I used to do it every feed so he was getting heaps and it used to clear within a couple of days. You can actually also use normal cows milk as it carries similar antibodies, although I'd try to BM first

I used BM in my sons eye when he had gunky eyes at 6 weeks old, works wonders, cleared up in about a week. I cleaned the gunk off the eye with saline solution first.

I used to express into a cotton ball and wipe the eye that way.. Alwats worked within a day or so..
