Jaundice
27-DEC-2005:
Dominic is 5 days old now.
He eats every 2-3 hours and poops after every feed. He begins to develop plenty of red spots on his face and head. Could be baby acne? He also has jaundice. We took him to the pediatrician to examine the bilirubin level in his blood. The result was 275 (which the doctor said was pretty high). Dominic was admitted to the hospital for one night to be put under the light.
