Jovin Update

Well this first week has been really fun! Not a lot of sleep, but a lot of fun moments. On Tuesday we went to Jovin's first doctors appointment. Unfortunately he has jaundice so we have had to keep him on a belibed. It is a UV bed that he has to stay on all the time except for feeding time and diaper changings. (I wouldn't mind being on the bed and getting a tan, but it is hard to have Jovin on it cause if he gets upset we have to clam him down while still on the bed. He's pretty much strapped to it.) We went back to the doctor on Friday to test his level of bilirubin. First we took him to the scale to have him weighed and we had to take the diaper off to have an acurate weight... as soon as the weight came in at 6lbs 10oz, he pooped.... so we put the diaper on and went back to his exam room to wait for the doctor... as we were cleaning him up and puttig on a new diaper Jovin peed all over himself and the exam table... so we had to really clean him up and get another diaper to put on him. We then had to go to the lab to have them draw more blood so they could test his level for the day and Cory told the nurse that we were there to test his mideclorian levels. (Now only you true Star Wars fans will get that.) The nurse didn't laugh... but Cory and I got a good kick out of it. I think that was the funniest doctors appointment I have ever been to.
We are doing okay today. Jovin's level did go down but not enough. He is still on the belibed, the doctor said that as soon as his poop is yellow we can take him off the bed... so we are hoping for yellow poop. (yeah, we know that is a weird thing to be hoping for... but we have realized weird thing happen when you have kids.) Hopefully our next update wont be as disgusting...
