Bella had a crusty eye due to a blocked tear duct. You know the kind…sealed shut and really boogery looking?

The cure?

Breastmilk squirted right in there.

It took me a few tries to get it in because her eyes kept closing. I think she wondered what the heck I was doing. The look on her face said “Hey! I’m trying to drink that!”

It looked better within 2 minutes – completely gone 30 minutes later and it hasn’t returned.

That was 4 days ago.

Apparently there are at least 15 antibacterial factors in breastmilk. It can fight E. coli, Staphylococcus, Enterobacter sakazakii, and Group B Streptococcus. Heck, it even protects babies from cancer! And that’s all in addition to the immunity, enzymes, growth factors and hormones. It’s amazing stuff and I feel so blessed to be able to nourish my babies with nothing but the best. I know it’s not easy for everyone.

Apparently, it also removes eye make up rather well.
