Collin has developed Jaundice, which is very common for preemie babies. Here's baby laying under the blue lights, it helps his body break down old blood cells and release them as waste from his body. He seems to love the light and warmth and he spreads his arms and legs out! The lights can be harmful to his very sensitive skin and eyes, so the time he is under the lights is limited, but just long enough to help with the jaundice. He has to wear the tiny little sunglasses to protect his eyes.
