Paityn was pretty jaundice when we left the hospital so they gave us a perscription to have the light box delivered to our house. The same thing happened to Riley and she was only under the lights for 2 days and 1 night. So I wasn't too worried about it. So we got the lights and set them up and put Paityn inside. She LOVED it. She was soaking in the rays. She would sprawl out all extended and she was comfortable. After 2 days I took her into the doctor and her levels had gone up. So another day under the lights. The next day I took her in again and the levels had gone up. Another two days under the lights. Then back to the doctor. This time they had leveled off and didn't go up but hadn't come down either. Another day under the lights. Back to the dr. The level came down but not far enough so another day under the lights and FINALLY we are done with the light box. I hate that thing. Thank goodness thay have those though. Now our girl is good to go and sleep in her own bed.
Here she is laying out and loving it. Look at her with her hands behind her head.

Emma had to be under the lights for quite a few days and I HATED every minute of it. What is the white thing over her eyes? A washcloth? We were always so worried that Emma would take the "sunglasses" off. What an adventure.
