Hi mummies,
Is there any ways to help bring down the jaundice? My baby went for phototherapy and was discharged last week, today went for follow up checks, the jaundice level seems to go up again. TIA..
Feed more to reduce breastfeeding jaundice.
Give formula milk on top of your own milk to reduce breastmilk jaundice.
Hang in there.. the levels will start dropping gradually soon, after one week:)

There really isn’t any need for formula
if breastfeeding. The baby does need lots of milk to flush out the bilirubin. Mother’s milk is always the best choice. If you feel more comfortable you could pump out and cup/syringe feed to be sure the amount that LO is drinking. But formula won’t solve anything but damage a mother’s milk supply.
