McKinley's 1st few days home

When we left the hospital with McKinley the pediatrician said that we needed to see our doctor the next day to check her bilirubin levels because she was at around 11 so we made and appointment and enjoyed our first night home as a family. The doctor did a heel prick test to check the levels and then we went home. A couple hours later we got a call saying that McKinley needed to do the light treatments for jaundice because her bilirubin had jumped up to 21. They said a home health company would bring them by for us and that we needed to see the doctor each day until they said she was okay. Not too long after that we got another call saying that if the lights didn't arrive to our house by 9pm and no later then we were to take her straight to the ER at Baptist. So, we were a little bit nervous about that. The home health people said they'd be here about 9:20 so Kris and I decided to wait for them because by the time we got to the hospital and were all set up we figured it would be after 9:20. I'm glad we did because it wasn't so bad having a little glow worm of our own for a few days. She did great with being wrapped up in the light blankets and we didn't have to have our little one in the ER catching any sicknesses
