My poor baby has jaundice bad... She has to be on this light for as long as possible... Had first dr appt today... Found out I might not be producing enough breast milk for her.. Have to breast feed and do 2 ounces of formula... Till Monday... I cried my eyes out when I left the office I felt like I wasn't feeding my baby enough and Tht I couldn't give her what she needs... I still feel horrible... She has to have the test again tomorrow to check to see if the jaundice went down at all... My poor baby... 😭😭😭
they told me the same thing sunlight does my work my son was in a thing with the blue light all I could do was feed him then he went back in it for 24 to 36 hours
@pinkhearts1990, my son had it bad also he was in that blanket for four days only took it off to change him and bath him. I hated having to see him in it and get his blood taken back to back. the doctor said not to do take them out in the sun because it actually bad their skin is sensitive.
my daughter had to use the bili blanket for her first 5 days & we had to have her heel pricked every day. itll pass! i cried too! i had to supplement with a syringe & formula (because we were nervous of nipple confusion) message me if you wanna talk!
She didn't lose weight she gained an ounce thts it.. And hasn't popped since we left the hospital... She has it really bad.. If the light don't help they are gonna admit her..
