Weight Loss and Bilirubin

Our little Kirra still isn't better! Her Bilirubin levels keep bouncing up and down. When she is on the lights, her levels SLOWLY go down. Like from 9.3 to 9.1... Then we take her off the lights (because the Dr told us to) and they go up to 10.3! Today is her second check being off the lights. We'll see what happens. Hopefully they stay low, but with our luck it won't happen! She has been a real trooper though. She is such a great baby! She hardly cries and she is content most of the time to lay down by herself. Both boys wanted to be held ALL THE TIME! I'll try to update what happens with her bili levels when we get them!

I finally stepped on a scale yesterday. Before I got pregnant, I weighed 155. That's the lowest I've been since Jr High! At my last appointment before having Kirra, I weighed 185! That's the MOST I've EVER weighed! I gained 30 lbs! Holy cow! That little girl only weighed 7 lbs 5 oz, so most of it was me... (I only gained 10 lbs with both boys...) Yesterday when I weighed myself I weighed............ 165!!! That's what I weighed when we got married! YAY! Only 10 lbs to go and I'll be back to pre-pregnancy! I just hope it's not too hard to get those 10 lbs off!

yay for easy weight loss! I remember when I saw you a while ago at women's conference I thought you looked really good. I bet those last few pounds will melt away!

I'm sorry Kirra is still having issues with her bili levels. I really hope her appointment goes well!
