Is it good to frequently feed newborns with glucose for nine days?

Patient's question:

These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits and it's affecting my work performance. Actually, I didn't want to, either. I often can't sleep at night, and sometimes I feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. Is it good to feed newborns glucose frequently at nine days?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, it can be consumed in moderation, but not excessively. It requires careful nursing and attentive care, with breastfeeding as the primary method. Traditional Chinese medicine Yinzhihuang oral liquid should be used for treatment. The jaundice started off not very yellow, but it will gradually become more yellow. It is very noticeable. Don't worry too much. It is normal for babies to have jaundice. Exposing them to sunlight is fine and doesn't require special attention, as it's not a big issue.
