my heart breaks
Fri Jan 22
Emily’s 1st visit with Dr Quintana.
Diagnosed with Jaundice.
Blood test at Lab.
Lab results show a mild case of jaundice.
Make appointment to come back tomorrow for another Dr check up and blood test.
Milk comes in!!
Sat Jan 23
Back to the Doctor and lab for another blood test.
So proud of how strong Emily is being.
Lab results come back and are not good.
Admit Emily into the hospital for 24 hours.
Katelyn isn’t able to come to the 3rd floor. So a quick, sad goodbye and Emily and I are on our own.
After nursing her she is placed in “the box.”
I told her to pretend she was on vacation somewhere sunny and warm.
I am emotional. blame it on the just giving birth hormones.
so fortunate it isn’t something more serious.
i couldn’t imagine!
zack is able to come be with us for a couple hours while Bean gets a visit from Grandma and Grandpa.
it was a LONG night
but so happy her morning blood test came back with lower numbers
and we get to go home!
well, after a very long wait at the pharmacy.
i was so tired and exhausted
and this close to choking the lady behind the counter!
thankfully i was able to nap a bit.
so so so happy to be home!
Tues Jan 26
Back to the lab for another blood test.
Emily is eating and pooping regularly.
Crossing my fingers for low numbers!!
enough pricks in my baby's heels already!!!
