A. Hello my dear parent! Many babies get neonatal jaundice. Complete the course of treatment as advised by the doctor and there will be a gradual improvement in the condition. Continue to exclusively breastfeed your baby on demand for better health, nutrition, hydration, and weight. Consult your doctor for further assistance in this matter.
