Evangeline is already a month old and like her older brother, she had jaundice that just didn't want to quit. In order to hasten the biliruben out of her skin we were prescribed phototherapy, or a bili-blanket. It was HUGE and loud and really didn't do anything. We used it for about a week before we were told we could stop. And now her jaundice is down all by itself. The highest level was 15, then last week 12.1 and this week 7.9! She's not completely orange free, but a lot better!
