Beyoncé and Jay Z’s Twins Were Born Prematurely

Beyonce and her husband Jay Z welcomed their twin babies last week Monday at a Hospital in Los Angeles.

The mother of three has since not been discharged from the hospital after the birth despite the fact that she spent millions of dollars on having a home delivery.

TMZ reports that the the singer’s twin babies were born prematurely, hence, the need to be monitored and kept “under the lights” for them to normalize.

Sources also state that apart from being born prematurely, the babies also have jaundice. This is a common but not serious issue with premature babies.

Usually, when babies are born with jaundice, they are kept under a photo-therapy light or under a sun lamp.

Babies with jaundice have elevated bilirubin levels and the lights under which these babies are kept are designed to lower bilirubin in the blood to eliminate the jaundice.

Exposing the baby to sunlight through a window also helps in lowering the bilirubin level as it is done in most cases in Nigeria.
