Question

How high is the normal jaundice index for a 36-day-old baby?

Answer

The normal range for a 36-day-old baby’s jaundice index can vary depending on factors such as the baby’s birth weight and whether they are premature. Generally, full-term babies should have a jaundice index below 10mg/dL at 36 days old, while premature infants might be below 12mg/dL. However, these values are for reference only, as each baby’s situation can be different. If you have any concerns about your baby’s jaundice, it is advisable to consult a pediatrician for more accurate information and advice.
