Kyler Update

We took Kyler to his 1st dr appointment on Friday. He now weighs 6lbs. 3oz and had an overall good checkup. The dr did notice that Kyler was "glowing" and needed to be tested for jaundice. We took him to the lab to get blood drawn and his bilirubin level was at 19. A medical supply company brought out a bluelight blanket that Kyler needs to be under unless he is feeding or being changed. We went back to the lab today and got his blood drawn again (poor guy) and his level had gone down to 17. We will continue to keep him under his blanket and will take him back to the lab again on Monday. Other than that, Kyler is such a good baby and is eating and sleeping well.
