Hi all, need advice. My son is 5 days old. Before discharge from hospital his jaundice was only 6. Doc said is v mild only but it may rise. No follow up for jaundice was given by doc. Today is 3rd day after discharge from hospital. & I noticed he looks more & more yellowish... v worried. what should I do?? How to know if his jaundice shoots up n needs to be under photo therapy?

Your son will have to take his immunisations at either a PD or a polyclinic. Over there, they will monitor his jaundice level and advise you accordingly. For me, I just continued breastfeeding and her jaundice level went down.
