I'm working on the birth story: the day after the birth, the power cord on my laptop died, and the next day I got a terrible cold. We haven't been sleeping, but I'm grateful to be able to get back online (and pay my cc bill before it was late) Xav is beautiful, if a little yellow . . .
Speaking of which, any home treatments you might know for jaundice beyond sun in the window? At 1 week, we are thinking of calling him Bart~ well, not quite that bad, but I am a little worried. He sleeps a lot, and isn't very demanding right now, but maybe that is his personality more than being lethargic . . . the doctor wants to recheck how he looks in about another week, but was wondering if there was anyting I could do meanwhile . . .
