Prolonged Jaundice

My LO jaundice level was 180 on 18 Feb (she was 2 weeks 4 days). We have since fully feeding her FM and stopped feeding BM since I'm eating confinement food. Anyone going through similar experience? How long does it take for the jaundice to go down? Any tips? #advicepls #pleasehelp #firsttimemom #firstbaby

Confinement food is fine. My bb has jaundice too and was cleared within 2 weeks. When he was discharged,l from hospital, his jaundice level was 150+. First visit to hospital few days later was 190+, next visit about 1 week later dropped to 67. I am having confinement food all the way. BM can help to lower bb jaundice level and also indirect sunlight will be good enough for them.
