My baby is doing alright. He is 4 weeks old and he is more jaundice than ever. So I took him to the ER since his urine was orange tonight. He was weighed is gaining alot.
birth weight 6lb 6 oz
4 weeks 9 lbs 10 oz!!!
I thought he was getting heavier.

About the ER, I was told that my baby has breastmilk jaundice. His bilirubin count is 14.4! And I have to nurse, nurse, nurse, and place him in the sun- stuff we have been doing all along.

They took his iron count too, and he is 14.1. That is high, and I wonder if that is normal for babies? Atleast he is not anemic at all.
