Another Jaundice Baby...

Although this time around it's been pretty miserable. Scarlett was a dream in her bili-suitcase. Remember this? Seriously... she never slept better than in that little thing. Cohen on the other hand, screams every second in there. I don't blame him but it was so frustrating because they almost didn't let us leave the hospital yesterday because his bilirubin level was so high, so I knew he should be under the lights. I gave up though and took a better night's sleep and a happy little guy over torture in the suitcase. I just couldn't bear it.

So, this morning I took him back to the hospital for another test and he was lots higher... :( I knew he would be, but I called his pediatrician and got home health to bring out the bili-bed and bili-blanket to replace the suitcase since I have heard better things about them. We have one more chance tonight to get his levels down or he'll be back in the hospital. Lucky for me, he seems to be a whole lot happier in this little bed.

And I'm relieved.
