No More Lights!!

The day we got back from the hospital we were given these bili-lights for Charlotte's case of Hyperbilirubinemia. She DID NOT like being the suitcase, and really struggled the first couple days. But we persevered!! Today we received word from the Doctor that her levels had improved so much that Charlotte is out of any danger zone. So she is off the lights!!! Hooray! We get to send those stinkin' lights back :) So this post is to commemorate Charlotte's first bed, and hopefully the last time she'll ever use it! (It probably is the most expensive first bed ever!)


The dreaded suitcase. She had to be in here any time we weren't feeding her or changing her. It made for some long nights, and sad cries!


This is her little get-up that she had to wear. She had a light strapped to her back. That is what the yellow straps are, I promise we did NOT put her in a tube top, cause you know if I had it wouldn't have been a yellow one!! jk :)


We also had to have a hat on her to keep her warm in the suitcase, and to cover her eyes so they didn't get hurt from all the bright lights. You can kind of see the light on her back glowing. It makes her look like a toy I had growing up. It was called a Glow Worm. Anyone remember those?
So we wish the suitcase a less than fond farewell and hope to never have to endure it's presence again!
