As I mentioned drooping of eyelid may resolve depending on severity, in couple days to upto 3 weeks. As for your baby, try to keep her away from you as much as possible. Frequently wash hands especially before and after feeding, avoid touching your eyes. And keep your used towels, utensils and stuff separate. Viral infections are notorious, as they can spread rapidly inspite of precautions. Do the best you can, hopefully she will be fine
