Delaney and I did eventually get to the doctor appointment, just a little late. The doctor said that she was doing well but that she had a little jaundice and she wanted me to take her to the hospital to have the billy ruben tested because she thought that it was getting kinda high.. For those of you who remember I had the same problem with Harper and he ended up being admitted to the hospital for 24 hrs after they found his billy ruben levels sky high.
I went to the hospital to get her blood work done and I was nervous that she was going to have to be admitted. After we got home the doctor call a little later and informed us that it was just under the level to be admitted so we dodged the bullet for the time.
I gave her an ounce of formula for dinner and before bed to help her get some fluids to clear up the jaundice since all I had was colostrum still. But good news this morning my milk came in, so now she is getting full meals instead of snacks. It's kinda fun having your boobs grow over night, it just sucks that they get full and hurt and leak etc..

I'm so glad that Delaney didn't have to be admitted. That's always a scary thought.
I don't miss the leaky boobs at all! Although after having 4 kids I got to the point where I wasn't embarrassed by it anymore. I would laugh at it. I just remembered to take a light cardigan with me everywhere I went incase I needed to put it on to cover up any wet marks.
