Update on my little cutie, Aliza Grace...she has been jaundiced and they thought they had it under control, she had spent some time under the UV lights but they called about her bloodwork done today and she had to go back to the hospital for more light therapy for a bilirubin level at 18. Her mom is having a hard time with this and also with the fact that Aliza is not getting enough from her breast feeding right now and they have had to supplement her feedings. She's losing weight and having constipation, etc.
I know this little girl is in the hand of God and I don't worry one bit, but if you all could say a prayer for these young parents, I'd appreciate it. They are sort of nervous nellies anyway, so add an orange, little Oompah Loompah baby to the mix and it's really causing them strain.
Prayers being sent! My youngest was born at 34 weeks. She was really bruised from presenting face first, and then having to have an emergency C-section.... She had to stay in the NICU for a week. If my 4 lb 13 oz peanut could do fine, so will theirs! Here is my glo-worm with her bruised and swollen face! I felt so bad..... would you all like to hear her story?
