Dr Raksha guptaMom of a 9 yr 6 m old boy3 years agoA. yes it will settle down .
serum bilirubin depends on mother and baby blood group incompatibility
also depend on some genetic problems like g6pd deficiency,
you must breast feeding regularly and frequently and recheck next day .if it is in increasing pattern baby needs hospitalization and detailed evaluation

yes it takes time
but please do as per your doctor's suggestions.
offer plenty of breastfeeds to your child.
if doctor permits ,give sunlight atleast 20 minutes a day.
it is natural phototherapy.
