A. Hello my dear parent! It took a total recovery of 50 days for my cousins child to recover from neonatal jaundice. It all depends on the severity of the symptoms. Consult your doctor for further guidance in this matter. Continue to exclusively breastfeed your baby on demand for better health, nutrition, hydration, and weight gain
