*rant* So her labs yesterday came back with elevated bilirubin. Dr threatened to keep her an extra day for light therapy if she went too high at her next lab draw. Next lab draw: bili is NOT too high, but she lost weight again (she’s 3 days old, guys) so we might have to keep her here another day until she’s… not losing too much weight? Do they want to keep her for a week or more till she starts gaining again?! Oh, and to top it off, bc she’s “still losing weight” (like every normal baby does in the first week), they’re upping the amount they bottle feed her stupidly fast and blowing through my pumped supply so I will have to feed her at all the touch times if I don’t want her to have donor milk or formula (and I don’t want to use formula, and they said we couldn’t be reliant on donor milk if we want to be discharged), so now I’m looking at a max of 1.5 hour stretches of sleep at a time. It’s now been 96 hours since my last full night of sleep before the induction. I’ve gotten maybe 18 hours of sleep. It feels like this hospital is trying to kidnap my perfectly healthy baby. Advice welcome.

So waiting for this to drop 😂 If she actually follows through and this post gets 100 likes, I’ll post a video of me eating green Jell-O while reading Daniel 1
