Some tips I did to reduce my boy's jaundice: 1. Sun tanning. Before 10am. Cover the eyes if baby is below 1 mth old 2. I went to the Chinese medical hall to get these Chinese herbs for reducing jaundice aka 黄疸. I don't really know what the herbs are called but if you go and ask them for jaundice they will know. Use it and boil with some water half a pot. Then mix with cold water and use the water to bathe your girl. The water will be yellowish in colour. I wouldn't advise letting ur girl drink water becos babies shouldn't be drinking water for fear of water intoxication. Hope this helps.

If you are latching maybe you can use bottle so that baby can take in more milk, after the jaundice go away you can latch back. I did this when my boy had jaundice but baby may get nipple confusion. If not you can latch more so that it can "flush" out the jaundice in baby's body. You can go to chinese medical hall to find "jin yin hua(金银花) if I am not wrong to bathe baby. Just ask the person manning the medical hall. They should be able to advise you.

On the contray, my doctor advised us against sun tanning because it would dehydrated him instead. Ideally, he told me to feed on demand, 50% breastmilk, 50% formula and to ensure that he pees and poop sufficiently. My son had pretty high jaundice, I can't recall the exact numbers but it was only until he was almost 2 months was she finally discharged from KK Hospital.

Yes my boy is also premature. Born at 33wks. He had mild jaundice when he was at hospital. But level went up after he returned home. So I had to bring him to polyclinic quite often then to teSt. So heart pain cos keep on got to do the heel prick. But i everyday bathe the water and suntan him then slowly it went down.

Is ur boy oso premature ? Cos the doc sae my girl is premature so the jaundice wil stay longer.. So i go to the chinese med hall n tel them i want the herbs for jaundice?
