Feed more milk:) If you’re breastfeeding, top up with formula too. I know how you feel. My LO’s level went up to 312, and I cried to see her having to go through phototherapy twice.

Babies who have jaundice need to be fed more so that they can pass out the bilirubin! If it is serious, the doc may also order blue light therapy to break it down
