A. there is always a chance of neonatal jaundice in small children within one or maximum 2 weeks of birth in which the skin as the eyes may appear yellow. you have to meet the doctor for evaluation of the jaundice.y normal simple jaundice will go away on its own with only breastfeeding but if it is more your doctor will advise phototherapy.g the yellowness from the eyes may take around 1 to 1 and half month to totally go away.

A. Hello dear parent! Get your baby personally examined by your doctor and seek further advice. Complete the course of treatment as prescribed by your doctor. Continue breastfeeding your baby well on demand for better health, nutrition and hydration. Good luck and take care.
