Kara...

Kara,
 As a nurse, maybe you can answer a question for me. Elizamay, my 2 month old, has had an excecive amount of sleep in her eyes since her second week. I figured it would just go away over time, but she's now almost two and a half months old, and the amount has gone down, but it still is more than normal. Is it something that will go away over time? or is there something I can do for it?

 Thanks!
 Stephanie
