A. Hello, your question is related to the neonatal jaundice so for bilirubin levels body weight of baby multiply 5 = bilirubin mg if it exceeds then baby should be kept in NICU

A. hello mum initially this level can be increased to 16 aur 17 but after fluid is it can start decreasing automatically but still the last decision will be of the doctor after the proper checkup of your baby you can take your baby in the sunlight early in the morning this is the best remedy to avoid jaundice
