one of his eyes appears to be a little puffy not a whole lot but it is noticable he doesn't have a fever and it doesn't appear to bother him what might this be? He has an appointment in 2 days but was wondering if i should take him in early and if this is cause for concern?

I dont think l would be overly concerned, when babies are born they take a little while to adapt from being inside their mother, what i am meaning is they have been in such a snug place for so long, they sometimes come out a little squashed up.

I dont think i would be worried, if it is not worrying the baby, and their is no discharge coming from the eye, or the eye is red, yes ask at your appointment

And congratulations on being a new parent , it is a precious time Smile
