Not been the best day today, Lorna phoned me early this morning a bit upset and feeling down, Abigail had some jaundiced and was in an incubator with a uv light but when i got there she looked ok. They took her out mid morning and I changed her, fed her a bottle and after all the running round it was the first time it sunk in that I had a beautiful daughter. We was then told they wasn't happy with her as she was to quiet and considering popping her down to the special baby unit for a check up, then not long after we was told she would be stopping down there and she might also have an infection, it was hard to hand her over.
Anyway we where allowed down about an hour later and she looked ok but was told she has got an infection and later we where told her jaundiced has worsened. We are hoping that some more results tomorrow will be clear and she will only be on anti-biotics for 2 days otherwise its 5 days. Abigail looked more alert tonight when the nurse was feeding her so she looks like she is improving.
Lorna was a little brighter tonight but looks exhausted and very white, had 2 hypos today but hopfully will manage some sleep tonight while Abigail is in the specail care unit.
