On the fifth day, at 7:19 PM, it was noticed that the baby's hands were cold, and the axillary temperature measured 35.9 degrees Celsius. The baby was drowsy and didn't wake up for three or four hours. When awakened to feed, it only suckled a few mouthfuls before falling back asleep. The baby's stool was slightly loose and yellow. There was mild jaundice, and it was measured at 11 on the fourth day, which was within the normal range.
