The medical name for it seems to be bacterial conjunctivitis
Whitish....yellow stuff comes out of her eye....and I know....tomorrow she will not be able to open easily...I know when treated...as we do...itīs nothing serious...but I feel so sorry...the eye under the eyeball is swollen...and itīs tearing...and that stuff is coming out....I got something from the doctor...itīs cooked sal****er....I wash it out with that....and then put some cream on it...he says it will be gone within the next three days.....I just feel so sorry for her...and hope my fiance and I...and even our cat wonīt get it as well...since itīs highly infective....
Did Your kids have it, too...I know my big bro and I did....

Poor thing! I remember having it as a kid, not fun. But luckily, none of my 4 have ever gotten it. Here's hoping for a speedy recovery so she's well in time for Christmas!

Poor Kandice :( I had it when I was younger as well. I always hated when my mom had to do the drops in my eyes. In 4th grade I got it 2 times in a row ... not fun at all!
Hope it clears for her soon!

I hope Kandice feels better fast. It is so hard to see a little one suffer in any way.

Poor Kandice !
Wash your hands well and often !! The only way to avoid spreading infections !

I remember getting this when I was younger. I woke up one morning and my eye didn't open! What a pain it is, I hope Kandice is doing better soon. It's gotta be tough since she's so little, when I had it I think I was in 4th grade.

Yes, I went through the pink eye with my kids. It spreads like crazy. They got it from a little boy I was babysitting at the time.
I sincerely hope that it's all cleared up for her to enjoy her special Christmas Day.

Im sorry to hear that! Pauvre Bebe! (Poor Baby) I used to get it alot.my kids do once in awhile,im not sure if anyone has said this,but,when she waskes up get a wash cloth wet it with warm water and clean her eye(s). if both eyes are infected rinse first before using it again..this helps open up the eye more gently..
Give her a hug and I hope she gets better very soon! :)

Oh she does...I think it´s gone...but the doctor´s told us to give her the meds about two or three days longer...so it doesn´t come back!
She infected my mom with it...I wonder how tho...cos she hasn´t touched her nowhere....and it must have happened within a few hours
