Update -
So her levels are FINALLY in the normal zone. It has been a very tense 36 hours or so.
They are starting to take away the lights (she had 5) and she's on 3 light now. They are checking her levels every 8 hours and if they continue to go down they take away lights, if you get me. If they go back up she will have to have them back, we've got to make sure she can maintain her own levels herself.
Taking down her fluids as well and replacing with milk, got to make sure she won't be sick etc. She has been sick 3 times. I've refused a dummy to be used with her and she keeps taking in so much air, and they aren't bringing up the wind quick enough, it's just one of those things.
Really hope her levels continue to maintain or go down as that means I could get her back tomorrow evening/Tuesday morning.
CANNOT WAIT to just hold her all the time

I’m sorry that it’s been such a rough time for you guys. I hope her numbers continue to improve and you guys can go home soon.

Sending you both creepy internet love and hugs. <3 I hope you are both on your way home soon and enjoying all of the snuggles together. I hope her numbers continue to improve. I know a couple babies that were sent home with a bilirubin blanket, so maybe that's an option once her numbers get low enough? Try to take care of yourself in the meantime, she's in the best possible place to get this medical care.
