please help!
my beautiful baby is almost 7 months
she randomly started going a bit cross eyed
im not home to call her doctor as Im away and dont have calling
it doesnt happen all the time bh.
her left eye is a bit wonky
sometimes if shes focused on me her left eye will lag a bit behind but ill snap my fingers and she'll refocus...
it really only started happening in the past few weeks but ive noticed it more now
is this normal? im really worried

If this looks new, I would definitely get it evaluated. If there is something to address, it is much more successful the sooner it is treated especially with little ones. Try not to worry. There can be lots of things that are not uncommon or dangerous and treated without anything invasive that could be causing that--and if there's a "lazy eye" issue, earlier treatment to strengthen the weak eye (often patches) is much more successful.

I think it may be prudent to try to get a medical consult on this sooner to rule out anything that should be addressed more quickly. It likely isn't heaven forbid anything like that, but I think it would be good to feel more confident of that and it would also give you peace of mind until you're back home.

Especially if it is a new development, it really should be checked out. Is there no way you could borrow someone else's phone or even landline to call your doctor in the UK?
Alternatively, do you have a traveller's health insurance for where you are now?

sore topic | Sorry you were pressured  Obviously I can’t tell you for sure what it is, but there’s a fair amount of evidence regarding strabismus and optic nerve dysfunction following vaccination. It may be reversible.
