I recently went to see a friend's baby boy who is six months old and while I was playing with him, i thought that his eyes were not focussing properly. I am concerned about his well being, but this friend is very sensitive and very touchy (especially since the baby was conceived with great difficulty). How do I tell her that the baby might need to be checked up?

There will be periodic medical checks for the child from newborn all the way to 3 years old. My friends had also told me that my child's eyes were not focused and like cross eyed. I took my gal for checks and learnt that it is normal for children under 1 to have cross eyes or not able to focus. Thankfully, all is well. She is 5 now and has beautiful big eyes. As a friend, it will be good to share with your friend that periodic medical checks are v good and helpful as they check on the child's eyes, hearing etc.
