Your baby has neonatal jaundice, typically with transcutaneous measured data below 10; if blood is drawn to test the level of bilirubin in the blood, the normal value is usually below 205umol/l (12mg/dl). The normal total bilirubin level for a 30-day-old infant is 1.7~17.1umol/l (0.1~1.0mg/dl). Direct bilirubin is 0~6.8umol/l (0~0.4mg/dl), and indirect bilirubin is 1.7~10.2umol/l (0.1~0.6mg/dl). Urinalysis is necessary to determine the true bilirubin level.
