today we took eleanor to kaiser for her "newborn club" appointment. we met with a nurse and dr. ben deters ;) hopefully ben will be our pediatrician once he is finished up with medical school! the nurse thought eleanor looked great, she was impressed with her weight- eight pounds, four ounces, and her nursing skills. the nurse was, however a little concerned with her color, and decided to do a blood draw to check for jaundice. later that afternoon, we got the call that her levels had gone up from 11 to 13 and we were asked to come back in on wednesday for another blood draw. for now, we are nursing constantly, trying to get this girl's liver working!
