Light Therapy

Sawyer was born with a rather large hematoma on the back of his head, which resulted in jaundice. The light therapy prescribed by the doctor was an awful plastic light-emitting paddle that he was supposed to lie on 24/7. After a day on the paddle, Sawyer was miserable. Luckily, his bilirubin count went down far enough to discontinue use. We followed up this awful treatment with some good-old sunshine. Here he is basking in the sun in the kitchen along with my plants.

Notice his enormous feet!


He liked the natural light much better.


Here is one of our favorite photos so far:
