For the last 4 days, I had been all so sleepy and tired... and not taking much milk.. Mummy and Po Po doesn't know why and they thought that newborn are suppose to be like.
As I am still too young to communicate, so all I can do is cry abit here & there and sleep all the way!!
When Dr Ong saw me, he said "oh.. he looks rather yellow!!"
Ur oh.. Mummy got so worried.. Dr Ong immediately asked us to go for blood test to check for the Jaundice level. The reading was 15 (normal should be less than 12 and when I was discharge from hospital on 29 March, my reading was only 7)).
Dr Ong suggested admitting me so that I can have my photo-therapy. Otherwise, if the condition worsen, I may have to change blood.. (Sound so scary!!)
Mummy was very upset and can't bear to leave me alone in TMC, but she got no choice as she is aware that if they were to bring me home and do self sun tanning, the result will definitely not be as good as photo-therapy.
I was then being brought to this room where all the "yellow" babies are and everyone of use will have to be naked except with our diapers on. We were even given "sunglasses" (some kind of eye protector made from cloth) to wear so that the light will not hurt our eyes. I had to spend 2 days in this room so that my jaundice level will be back to normal.
Don't I look sick and yellow :(
Mummy wrapped me up with this cloth makes me looks like "Chee Chong Fun" :D
