Need Some Help

Hi mummies. Does anyone know what is this growing on lo eyelids? It's pretty worrying. First noticed slight redness two days ago on top of left eyelid then slowly it spread to right eyelid, then right cheeks - > left cheeks then below eye. Currently both below eyes swollen.. Lo is currently 9 days old.. No idea if it's normal or eczema or rashes or due to what I'm eating? Should I bring her to the doctor?

I don’t know what exactly it is but my girl has eczema and they grow around her eyes and under eyes (eye bags areas) right now.

Bring baby to doctor so you don’t second guess yourself and you get accurate diagnosis and medication

Hope you’ve checked with a doc. Could be a stye. Just see a doc and get medication to be safe

Oh my, do take baby to a paediatrician soon. Eczema rashes Are not usually seen on the eyes...

Yup, most likely pink eye. And yes, cleaning with lukewarm boiled water helps.
