A member asked:
My baby is of 8 days. his bilurubin level is 11.6 . does his mom's food effect the bilurubin level of my baby boy ? foods like eggs, milk, chicken etc.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Neither the mother's diet nor the father's diet affect the bilirubin level of a baby. If a new baby is full-term and healthy with no blood cell problems, then a common cause of jaundice is just because the natural breaking down of baby blood cells creates more bile pigments than a new liver can process. Usually by age 6 days, a newborn's liver is working better and jaundice gradually fades.
