Jaundice Update

Just Evan News
Posted by: jzelazny | 2 Comments

The doctor called this morning and he does not feel any treatment is necessary besides frequent feedings – which will cause more poops – which will help Evan release the bilirubin. The number was 18, which sounds high in comparison to his initial number of 5 on day 1…but the doctor did not seem too concerned. He felt this would be Evan’s peak and he would go down from there. So we keep eating and pooping and hopefully he will be better soon. We go back to the doctors tomorrow, so he will be checked out again then.

    Hey Aim, just a note, my pedi told me to put Ryan in the sunlight. In the afternoon the sun shown through our back door so I would put him there for like 30 minutes at a time. That seemed to work. I hope you guys enjoy your first Christmas with that adorable little boy. -Amy L.

    Thanks for the advice. I have been trying to keep him in the light as much as possible, while Amy does her job of feeding him every two hours. His color is getting better everyday!
