It could be the weirdest thing I've ever seen

Sophie doesn't mind her eye drops. She did at first, grabbing your hands and pushing them away or squirming and fussing to be let go. But we explained that it wasn't going to be "ouch" and if she would just be still it would be over quicker. From that time on it has gone like this: She is the one that reminds us that she needs to take them. She grabs the bottle and says "Eye". Once you sit down, she lays her head in your lap and turns her head to one side and waits. She doesn't fight at all. When you are done with that one she turns her head to the other side and waits. After it's all done she gets up and goes about her business. I'm telling you it's downright creepy. What one year old does that? It's just not natural.

My nephew is about the same age 16 months, he loves his medicines and can't wait to take them. Enjoy it while it lasts!

That is weird but great! I always do eye drops so the kid lays down with their eyes closed and I drop the medicine right in the inside corner. Then the kid opens his/her eyes quickly and the medicine just runs in. No scary dropper coming at their eye and no holding them down. LOL

I hope Sophie is feeling better soon. At least she is not a grumpy sick girl.
