Patient's question:
My baby was born on November 6th, and on November 21st, their bilirubin level reached 289, so they were admitted to the hospital for blue light treatment. They were discharged on November 26th (total bilirubin 113.9, direct bilirubin 21.3).Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to the information provided, the doctor told you that you cannot breastfeed temporarily. This does not mean that you cannot continue breastfeeding. Generally, you only need to stop using it for three days before you can breastfeed again. Guidance: The baby has recurrent jaundice, but the jaundice is relatively mild. This is mainly due to the use of jaundice-reducing drugs. Breast milk jaundice can continue breastfeeding for three days after stopping breastfeeding, and the jaundice will gradually return to normal after a period of time. Hope this helps you.
