any moms deal with newborn jaundice? my son had it at 3 days old but they said he didnt need any treatment at urgent care. it got better and it's coming back now and he's been grunting so much and he has a high pitch squeals like a piglet. Also he does a lot of "daydreaming" but he's a newborn so I'm so stuck between "that's normal, don't be worried" and "something's terribly wrong" we are trying to figure out if we should go to urgent care, children's hospital, and the emergency room. we would have to take public transportation and obviously that's pretty scary with covid-19

Did you end up going? I dont know much about it. My girl had it a bit for a while and we ended up getting it tested 4 or 5 times. From what I remember, if they are so tired that they miss feedings, it's a bad sign, and also the jaundice travels down, so if it's getting to the legs/feet, it's also bad.

I've spoken with the nurses hotline already and she said to get him seen within the next 4 hours 😳

@tammyarielc then I'd take him to children's.
