Day 13 - 4 Sep 2010

4 Sep (Day 13) - Went to MA early this morning for a review of his Jaundice. Jaundice level was 8.3. So phew... it has more or less tapered off and we just need to keep on eye and make sure his skin is not yellowish, if not we can always go to the polyclinic to test.  I think all the top up feeds after latching were giving him the much required fluids, also this round we got some herbs from the medical shop to bath him for 3 days as we heard it helps to bring down the jaundice (unlike with no.1, I just kept latching her w/o extra feeds and no herb bath, her jaundice appearance only disappeared after 1 mth).

Thereafter we headed over to my Gynae's clinic.  As I was still having some slight bleeding Dr told me to come back in 10 days time for my pap smear as he was afraid results may not be accurate. He also scanned by womb to check for any blood clots; so far only 1 which he says will come out soon.  Then it was Jasper's turn to get checked on his circumcision. Dr very funny, he commented "look so cute and healing very well".  Quite glad that everything went well for the boy.
