I'm Currently Feeling: | NOt really sure, but sunlight is great for helping. Stripe that girl down, and take her out either in the morning or later in the afternoon, give her full exposure for 5 minutes a side. We did this with Brennan, and had no problems with jaundice, and it really helped his skin. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I might call the doctor and see what he/she thinks. Jaundice can be really serious if it gets bad. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Bella was jaundice for almost 3 weeks. She had extensive bruising though. The dr. said that it can take up for a month for their color to go back to normal. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Is your midwife not coming out regularly? My midwife was out every few days and always said kyle looked slight jaundice, but not bad, she just said to try and maybe place him in the sunlight through the window as it helps.
On the other hand my little cousin needed intense photo therapy. Just depends how bad it is xx |
