A. It’s okay it’s not very high rest you can check with your doctor they suggested to keep your child into phototherapy then you go for it they are mostly going to keep the child in phototherapy for 24 hours if needed and after that they will discharge post that I would recommend you to keep your child into indirect sunlight for at least 30 to 40 minutes every day in the morning and start with vitamin D supplement with your doctor about anyways prescribed for first year of birth
