Question
The newborn was born 6 weeks premature and has been born for 1 week. They have been living in an incubator for 1 week, but the total bilirubin level is still 202, indicating severe jaundice. What should I do if my newborn’s jaundice persists?
Answer
Based on the description of the illness, it may be due to breastfeeding jaundice. It is recommended to increase water intake, expose the baby to sunlight more often, and pay attention to diet. Ensuring adequate deep sleep can help with a quicker recovery. I hope this answer is helpful to you, thank you.
