Does eating mangos almost everyday when youre pregnant cause jaundice for the baby?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No connection: Up to a 3rd of babies get visibly jaundiced regardless of the mothers diet. It represents a backlog of work created after the cord is clamped and baby must start doing work done previously by the mom via placenta. It usually clears in a few days. There are other worrisome causes but I fine none due to diet.
