Jaundice

Baby boy is a little jaundice. Any tips or tricks to help that?

Комментарии

My son is as well, his levels were low though so we are just waiting it out. Sunlight and feeding are best though like others have said. The hospital pediatrician said it usually goes away within a week or 2.

Enfamil makes a liquid vitamin d supplement that my pediatrician have me a sample of, she said breastfed babies tend to lack it and it can help with any signs of jaundice.

Sunlight, eat(breastfeed or formula) the more he poops the better, that way it helps to get it out. My youngest was boarder line and we were in the hospital for 5 days. We did the natural light and feed. He is a happy and healthy almost 2yr old.

My baby is too! Although it's clearing up nicely. Feed as often as you can, and put baby in sunlight! Feeding is especially important as it's what helps it to go away faster :)

Bam! Sounds easy enough! Luckily he's a brilliant feeder. He loves it haha! I opened up the back door earlier today and I sat on the couch with him and let the sun hit him for about 20 minutes and he already looks better!

Sunlight. I would set him in front of a window & let the light hit him for short periods at a time.
