Gabriel update


Just thought I'd email you so you know the latest about Gabriel. Sunday, the 22nd, two days after we were discharged, we took Gabriel in for a well-baby visit and to check his jaundice level. The biliruben test came back at 13.4 (not great but not bad either). That next Wednesday we took Gabriel to his first pediatrician visit where they gave him his first imunization and ordered another billiruben test. This one came back 13.5. The doctor said that we should try exposing him to indirect sunlight and make sure he continues to eat regularly. We were also to bring him back in a week. That appointment was this morning. The doctor says his color is normal now so it appears we are out of the woods. I just wanted you all to know so you wouldn't worry about it. I thought I'd also include a couple photos.


Lots of love,


- Karen
