Blue light special!

We had our first followup appointment today and found out a couple things. He is now down to 8lbs from the initial 8lbs 12 oz. His level of jaundice has increased enough to require a billi light. The picture below is him using the billi light when we put him down to sleep this afternoon. We will try him on this for the next couple days and will followup with the pediatrician.

He is a cute little bundle...you forget how teeny they are even at 8 lbs!!

Emerson had to spend 3 extra days in the hospital because his billirubin levels were so high. No worries!
