A member asked:
Do jaundice be in breast milk and is it life threatening to a baby my son jaundice level is 13.7and he is 2 weeks old is that's okay?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal: don't worry about it that is complete w/i normal limits. aside from that the breastfeeding jaundice is not harmful at all. to distinguish from regular jaundice you could take the baby off the breast milk for a day and it should clear up. once you are sure it is breast milk jaundice you don't need to worry about it anymore.
