How Unsafe Is Low Sugar Level For A Baby With Enlarged Liver And Heart?
I have a client who just had a baby. The baby girl has an enlarged liver and heart. Her sugar is also low. I was told that they can t hold the baby yet and that she is on antibiotics , her lungs are responding and she may be in the hospital a few weeks. My client has disabilities and isn t the best at understanding/explaining these types of things. Any thoughts on what this could be?
