Under the lights

As you can see from the video below, Hazel is back under the lights. Her bilirubin level was up again today. One thing that helps keep it low is eating and fully digesting food. Since she hasn't been eating for a couple of days, her level went back up. They started her on a very small amount of milk again today, but she's still having lots of residual (she's digesting the food, but it's just sitting in her stomach). Please pray that she'll start fully digesting her food soon so that she can be off the lights, we can hold her again, and she can get rid of her "sunglasses" (which she doesn't seem to like at all).

I will be praying! Thanks for sharing the videos, too, it's an honor to be able to see them all the way here in MI and get a sense of the precious babes they are.Praise God for the 3 lb mark! Praying for those ounces each day - and for mommy and daddy, too, for strength, patience, trust and peace. You guys are doing awesome...xoxo!
