Okay, here is the translation following your instructions: Because of jaundice, I have been taking medicine for three days. Can I eat breast milk?

Patient's question:

Jaundice has been present for about a week. When she was born, her complexion was very rosy. In the past week, her face has been quite yellow. Yesterday, the hospital said it was moderate jaundice and recommended pausing breastfeeding for five days. They also prescribed two medications: Sanlian Huo Jun Powder and Yin Zhi Huang Oral Liquid. Now, it's visible to the naked eye

Doctor's answer:

Analysis of the condition: Hello, breast milk jaundice is generally divided into two types: early-onset and late-onset. Regardless of whether it is early-onset or late-onset breast milk jaundice, once breastfeeding is stopped for 3-5 days, jaundice will subside. Breast milk jaundice lasts longer than general physiological jaundice, with some cases lasting up to 1-2 months.
Suggestions:
1. First, I don’t know the specific bilirubin level of your child. In mild cases, you can temporarily stop breastfeeding and combine it with oral jaundice-reducing medication.
2. After stopping breastfeeding for 3-5 days in breast milk jaundice, the skin yellowing will significantly improve. During this period, you can use a breast pump to extract milk to ensure continued milk production. Once the baby’s jaundice subsides or disappears, you can resume breastfeeding.
