How many days old? Jaundice does made baby sleepy. If lo still wake up regularly for feed, then it is fine. If not, have to wake lo every 3 hours to feed.

Yes yes. Nb are supposed to spend most of their time sleeping cos they still getting used to the environment. Once they reach about 3-4 weeks, the wake time will be longer. So treasure now and rest more.

Yes jaundice does cause tiredness and sleepiness. It will get better once the jaundice clears up.
