Hey guys, my baby's bilirubin reading just hit an all time high of 262 (prolonged jaundice btw). So, the KK gave me a referral letter to go to the hospital for further actions to be taken. So i went to Putrajaya hosp on the same day, hoping to get phototherapy for my baby, and to my horror, the nurse at the pediatric counter told me that she would give me a scheduled consultation for next wednesday! After being stunned a little, i asked her can it wait that long?! She replied that my baby is only 17 days old and they only look after babies who are 21 days and/or older. WTF?!

What should i do? i'm considering going to a private hospital now as i worry if i wait for wednesday it'll be too late and the bilirubin levels might increase some more. Any suggestions? should i wait? So worried!

Any1 know where to rent legal phototherapy machine to use at home/confinement center in penang and what is the cost tq
