Hi everyoneMy baby will be 3 weeks old on Tuesday. Total bili is 325 since day 7 and conjugated was 24 last Tuesday and 25 on Thursday, so 7% of total. I'm in the uk. Stools and wee is normal, all blood tests including enzymes are OK. We are being sent for a scan tomorrow to check for BA. I am sick with worry :( baby is exclusively breastfed. Had initially lost weight but has exceeded birth weight since Thursday - literally put on 200g in two days! Baby looks visibly jaundiced. Feeds well. Acts normally.
