back in the hospital
Yesterday we were discharged, now today we're back and at a different hospital. We had an appointment today for a checkup, they took her bilirubin levels, and it was a 19.7. Yesterday morning it was 8.8. We got admitted to the nicu at a children's hospital. I was devastated at first because we went through this with our first, and didn't think we would need it for our fill term baby. But, the nicu is amazing! They have a pullout bed in the nicu room itself. So we don't leave baby girls side. I feel a lot better now. Hoping we get to go home asap.

Update: McKenna has been under the lights all night besides feedings. At 2am, they checked her bilirubin levels again and they went down to 17. It's now 8:17, and they will be checking it any minute again.

Another update for you ladies: when they took her levels at 8 this morning, they went down to 16. They are taking her off the lights early this afternoon and we are going home tonight!!! We will follow up with a check up on Monday.
