Jaundice...

So, I guess too much sleep is a good thing. Spencer has been sleeping so much that he has barley woken up to nurse. When I took him to the Dr's on Saturday I had to get his billirubin levels tested. He was at a 15 and a 17 level is where he would need to get admitted to the hospital. So I took him in on Sunday and he was at a 16.1. I will take him in today. Hopefully, his levels will go down. When he was born he had a nice color to him. Now he is a shade of yellow.

I gave him some formula so he would drink something before he fell back to sleep. Then my milk came in and he started to be more awake, so he is not getting as much formula. Today, we put the play pen in front of the window and he sun bathed for a while.
