    Hi ladies,

    I gave birth to little angle last Monday through c sec after being in labour for like 24 hrs ...

    All is well , today my little one's bilirubin count came a little higher than normal and was recommended phototherapy session through blue light.
    She is given a eye mask to protect her eyes ... I asked the nurse what happens if that comes off she was like she hasn't seen such case so far , she didn't say anything about light being dangerous or Not .
    My baby was constantly crying inside and has to be given pacifier . I was holding her hands trying to talk to her and suddenly for a like 5 secs gazes my turn away and when I saw her again her eye mask was gone , she removed it .
    Needless to say I called everyone from nurse to child doc on duty . All said it wnt affect my baby ' eyesight . Iam so damn worried now . Can't sleep . Her eye tests are after two weeks and doc on dirty assures it will be fine . But I just can't sleep .
    Aniyone has any idea on this ? Ladies please please please help .

    @ashima10 - Congratulations on the little princess! Welcome to parenting.

    Regarding the eye mask, my son was under the lights with preemie jaundice for two weeks. During that time his eye mask had been pulled off many times. So far, his eyesight is perfect, despite the fact that Mom, Dad and Sis are all wearing corrective lenses. Don't worry, she's going to be just fine.

    Have fun with her.
