dehydration.

Ways to tell you are dehydrated:

WATER STATISTICS

fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic

math, and difficulty focusing on the computer

screen or on a printed page.

Jaundice

Phototherapy is a treatment with a special light that helps rid

the body of the bilirubin by altering it or making it easier for the

liver to get rid of it.

Bilirubin is produced

by the breakdown of

red blood cells.

Normally bilirubin

passes through the

liver. Jaundice occurs

when bilirubin builds

up faster than a

newborn's liver can

break it down and

pass it from the body.
