baby update, part 3
Well, Seton hasn’t ousted us just yet, which is good since Ro isn’t quite done with the phototherapy. Her bilirubin levels have dropped about a point a day for the past 2 days, so we’re on our way, but it’s still a long, agonizing wait.
Our days right now revolve largely around us traveling back and forth a floor for feedings in the NICU every 3 hours or so. Sometimes bottle, sometimes breast, but Mindy’s been doing a lot of pumping to cover the couple of feedings we can’t make it up for. Meh, it’s a routine, even if one we hadn’t counted on. It’s been kind of nice in one respect; we’re basically getting full time nursery service so we can skive off and get some sleep. Still, it’ll be nice to have her out of there.
