A. this level is very high and it needs continuous monitoring further here you can follow the advice of your doctor and your doctor will explain you in a proper way and if required after a proper assessment . Its always better if you follow your doctor advise with a proper guidance for the concerning matter.

A. Hi mom Jaundice is very much common in néw born babies. So no need to worry.. Phototherapy will help to bring down the bilirubin level.. Just relax.. Jaundice will be fine within two weeks after birth. Take care
