I remembered when I had my first baby she had jaundice and I was advised to breast feed her very often and also expose her to the early morning sun.. it worked just fine.
Unfortunately i live in mountains and thrs no much sun
Hello hows your baby now? What did you do? Hope shes okay now. My baby has a jaundice too she's 3 months old already
@@maryjanedaquioag7282 three months is too long though... My baby got cured by the end of second month.... Keep feeding him as he urinates and passes shit the jaundice causing thing called bilirubin will be thrown out with it and also expose him to early morning or afternoon sunlight expose his chest back hands and legs
@@kyipasbeautyminati4172yes i will and thank you...is there any formula for babys to take away the jaundice? My baby is breastfeeding and formula..but still eyes and skin is yellow
@@maryjanedaquioag7282 no... Just keep feeding as much as possible.. Keep checking if its spreading more than you have to see a doctor because it can reach brain which is very rare though...but they say that breastfeeding is better for baby though... My baby wont take formula😒
I gave natural birth to my daughter listening to your videos and I just wanted to express how grateful i am for you and how inspired I feel to help other mamas feel empowered by their birth. Thank you ❤️
There's no brownie points for natural sooo??? Why u have to say? Lol want a affirmation?
Your videos are what helped me have a natural birth. Thank you so much for all that you do and share on your channel ❤️❤️❤️ and bringing awareness to families for everything about giving birth and babies ❤️😊
I wanted a natural birth but couldn't have one because of medical reasons. Bridget helped so much though by bringing in knowledge and helping me empower and being ok with what was going on.
Thanks for the video as a first time parents this is very scary at first sight
Thnkc for this information,I deliver my child in 38 weeks with this sickness n I'm soo worried can't even tell his father but now I believe my bb is fine cz 2weeks ago the baby was very Yellow but now he seem to look normal though tomorrow will put him in the sun
What was the level of jaundice?
Our baby has jaundice (4 days old) we got photo therapy done in the hospital and at home, thankfully she is doing much better but i wanted to add that We got our baby girl on formula right away and it helped so much she became more awake as soon as it was introduced to her.
Ps. Thank you for all of your information great video.
which formular is that? mine too has that yellow colour..
Pls what did you use as phototherapy at home?
We have had our baby on "Enfamil Gentle ease" purple can. We started her when she was only a few days old due to mother not producing milk. After about 3weeks jaundice was cleared our baby is now 2months old and happy as can be.
@@maryannewambua9786 Enfamil Gentle Ease (purple can) our baby is now 2months old happy and healthy as can be. Make sure to let your baby get lots of indirect sunlight.
@@rosecruz6092 we used a machine usually called a "Biliblanket" you can rent out the machine through your insurance provider usually a week at a time. We were charged around $40 to rent it for a week.
We were recommended to have her on the blanket for 24hrs for 3 days but we would do 2-3hr intervals then we would give her a 1hr break.
It was really hard for us but always remember its for their health. Just make sure their eyes are covered.
After that we made sure she got indirect sunlight and the jaundice slowly went away after about 2-3weeks.
Best wishes your little one will be ok.
Doctors and nurses contradict each other , they push formula so much , Then they say colostrum is enough... my experience was that i was having only 6/7 drops of colostrum each feed & baby would cry & cry. I said Id would exclusively bf. So they did not gave him formula . Then baby ended up having jaundice, cause kidneys couldnt /did not flush out bilirubin as it was supposed to do. So sometimes its necessary to give both colostrum and formula for the 1st 2 days ..I regret not knowing so bc my babys jaundice was super high he ended up back in the hospital, Could have been very dangerous. Now my bby is one week old and im fulltime breastfeeding hoping jaundice will go away fast.
How long did it take to get baby back home. It’s day 5 and my sons levels peaked again to 15
My baby girl is being treated at the moment (she’s 4 days old), she currently just got off from under the light. Her levels decreased, but it’s recommended that your baby stays feed this way when they go potty all that can be flushed out.
Everyone tell’s me not to worry, it’s hard but let’s keep praying for our little ones.
My son has G6PD Deficiency and has jaundice... did some 2-way photo therapy and his bilirubin was quite high. So far he is considered safe to bring home and he has been with us for almost 2 weeks... still i feel worried because i see some yellow... Just have to keep feeding them and ensuring they poop and pee.
@@foodmore how is she now
@@ruhulmondal8894 after he completed his light therapy, we brought him home and made sure to feed him as much as possible to encourage passing of motion and urine.
Eventually he cleared up after maybe a week.
@@foodmore i have done phototherapy for my baby, but after that still there is some yellow color
@@ruhulmondal8894 continue to feed and encourage poop and urine.
My baby girl was born the first of december. She had some light treatment during my stay at the hospital. But I had to rush back after being 2 days at home. They tested her blood and the numbers where super high. She had to stay for an other 5 days in the hospital and dubble light therapy. It is verry uncommon, we knew there was a risk for her because I had blood type issues during my pregnancy. All I can say is to follow you mommy instinkt if you feel that something isn't right. Thank you for this video Bridget!
how is your baby now ?
@@poonamnarendra2694 Healthy and strong baby. No set backs what so ever.🥰Thank you for asking!
How high is her bilirubin count. Indirect and direct
My baby also has been born 1st December 2023 now 3wks 5days his billirubin levels are @182 kindly assist
Congratulations! Enjoy your little baby 🥰@@kkkkkkk4686
I just want to say that you are wonderful, thank you for the great content, helping me and many other new mummy’s out there
Can you please make a video on breastmilk jaundice? Just found out that my baby has jaundice because of breastmilk intake.
Nice talk, informative indeed.Thanks.
Thank you for your info God bless you ❤
My son currently has Jaundice, he is 1 week and 3 days old and we are currently treating at home. I breastfeed him every two hours and give him vitamin D drops daily since it’s cold out and we can’t access that good sunlight.
How's your baby now m suffering frm same conditions
If the mother intake vitamin d supplement .. would it support baby to recover? Because here it is rainy
Thank you ☺️
Informative session, really helpful Thanks
Thank you
Thankyou So much ❤
My baby has had this condition but it seems I have treated unknowingly he is two weeks old now but the hello disappeared in just a week thank God
thank you for these video so helpful
Light therapy can increase cases of leukemia later on. Do your research. MOST interventions are more damaging if than the condition that is being treated.
Woah.. Thanks for that information , I will study on this matter
YOURE A GOD SENT OMGGG 💛💛💛💛
Thanks for this information sharing
Is it necessary to expose your infant in initial sun rays while the sun is rising or you can expose them at any time of the day in sunlight??
Sunlight before 12:00 am is recommended but anytime is helpful
Hi Need ur help I visit doc for my baby jaundice almost 15 days old baby he gave me vitamin D3 after almost 22 days still her eye light yellow due to rainy weather sunlight not properly appear so what I do next again go doc bcz as per doc when fever come then visit

Is there any other ways to help also him and I are taking a good probiotic he has diaper rash pretty bad please get back to me anything could help thank you so much for your time and videos.
My baby is currently 3 weeks old, fed often thru breastfeeding but his yellow still hasn't gone down. He only pooped twice after we got discharged from the hospital. I've been exposing him thru sunlight twice a day. In the morning and afternoon. I'm afraid that this will develop to something serious 😔😔
Heh mama I have a similar problem with my 3weeks old son. Did you get help?
@@slindilenyathi2555 sailing thru the same boat. My baby is 2 and half days old
@@slindilenyathi2555hey sli how is your baby? My baby is a week old and has yellow eyes did your baby get cured? If yes how did you do it?
How many mins can shown in sunlight for 4days new born baby?
10 to 15 minutes daily
Do wearing yellow clothes or using yellow towels cause jaundice in babies?
Are you simple lol
😂😂
I asked doctor , they said dont expose with sunlight.. hmm im confuset
By that they mean : ( don place him directly on sunlight ) they need sun, like when you go out and sun hits them thats okay. They just say that because they can get sunburn
I just gave birth to a baby girl 4 days ago. Phototherapy was done for 2 days and today we are sent home but my baby is still yellow and i am super worried.😖 is there a specific time for me to expose my baby in sunlight?
Just be patient and feed him so much
Arianne- my 2 day old son is currently under the lights. May I ask if your girl was on formula. I'm wondering if she's not getting what he needs being breastfed
@@netm203 hi! My baby is all better now after exposing her to sunlight for 1hour a day. Best time to do it is around 6am to 7am. It took us 2 weeks of doing that daily. Our doctor suggested that I alternate from formula to breastmilk for a month. I did that for 2 weeks also.
Thanks Ari. Of course I'm up because I'm afraid those little glasses are going to slide off his face. The doctor is suggesting supplementing formula but my wife is pro breastfeeding. Over my dead body if his health is at risk. Thank you and Congrats
@@netm203 try for at least a week, convince your wife cause there’s this thing they call breastfeeding jaundice. This is when the milk from the mom is giving jaundice to the kid. No harm in trying.
Im 16 and I don't have a baby. I don't know why the hell am I watching this.
All knowledge is helpful.
My baby is a month old and still has jaundice 🥺 im really worried
Did iy go away, mine is almost two months and still has it
@@kyipasbeautyminati4172 it went away when she was close to 2 months
My baby is 37 days old and still has jaundice.. Did doctor suggested anything or it went away by its own?
@@vivanshkaworld it will go away, keep breastfeeding the baby will discard the bilirubin in toilet and also keep the baby in sunlight.... My babys jaundice went away at almost when he reached two months
@@vivanshkaworld it went away before 2 mos. The doctor did not suggest anything for jaundice
Wait! Are you pregnant?
My baby was born at 37bweeks, developed jaundice and stayed under phototherapy for 6 days, on the second day of therapy the levels rather increased... this confused me. 2 days letter it started going down but at very slow pace. We were discharged and told to manage it from home...unfortunately its been cloudy and rainy since we came home. We are going back for review in 2 days but I'm afraid she looks yellower than she was....
How is your baby now
@margaretsaili440 how is your baby now? I am just from hospital for review and my babies level have increased instead of dropping,I am super worried.
@@marywanjirunjuguna5138how's your baby, I'm at hospital at the moment.
So Nice 💘💘💘💘💘💘
I need boyfriend 💋💋💋💋💋💞💞💞💞
Am right here 😅
I’m from Ghana in West Africa. Your videos were very helpful in preparing for and having a natural vaginal I medicated birth. Thanks so much!
Thank you
Thank you so much
Just had a baby 4 days ago and he’s developed jaundice i’ve been so worried but this honestly made me feel better
Hows he now
Hi Bridget! Your page is so helpful! I truly love the content you put out! My baby had jaundice for about 6 days but I kept feeding him through it & he was fine. Thank you for all the great videos you put out
Heĺlo. My baby has jaundice. Did u feed your baby with breastmilk or formula?
How much was billurubin level my kid is having 308um/l so does this need phototherapy?
All babies need is sun for 30 min and be breast fed jaundice will go right out the window works everytime
I watched this video when my baby was a week old that was 2 weeks ago my baby’s eyes were yellow he is now 3 weeks old I followed your instructions and fed him every 2 to 3 hours and he is jaundice free his eyes aren’t yellow anymore.
Love your content! Thank you for sharing💗 random question, your camera quality is awesome, may I ask what camera you have?😊
Baby is in hospital at the moment, doing the light treatment and his jaundice was 4plus and dropped to 2 plus and he is on drips for 3 days now and this morning his line got clogged and was swelling on the legs.Any advice
Has anyone got the photo light therapy? Is it safe for Newborns? Please help
yes its face cover eyes and wear diaper only
Thanks watching from PAPUA NEW GUINEA.
God bless you Bridget..I have learnt a lot from your teachings..
My baby is 1 month old but still have jaundice. Im so worried but Im breastfeeding her. She's pooping ang urinating yellow. Is it okay that it's one month already?
How is she now?
How is your baby now?
How is she now
I think chatgpt copied your video 😭😂
hi bridget, thanks for the amazing content! truly God sent.
Thanks a lot, I am still very worried about my baby boy who’s only 3 days old and was told he’s a jaundice baby.. I’m stressing myself out, hope he gets better soon :’(
Any updates?
Hello, I am from Iran. My son is 40 days old and the percentage of jaundice is almost 6. According to the doctor's advice, he said that it will disappear with time. Is this true? Does he not have black for his brain?
Thank you so much for this video. My first born had it and I was determined for my second not to have it. As soon as he was born, I started feeding him once I got the chance and he never had jaundice. I can't thank you enough
Today i take baby for her clinic and was shock to knoe dat my baby is hvmg jaundice..im worried nd start to searching for treatment..😭
My Mum told me that happened to me when I was a newborn baby they told me that they had put me in the incubator for several hours
Thank you so much! Yesterday, I noticed the white of my newborn son's eyes were a little less bright and turning more yellow. Thank you so much for these helpful tips as I can put them into practice asap
Thank you for touching on this subject Bridget I wish I would’ve found this when my son was born a year ago. Misinformation is given from pediatricians that gave me orders to stop breastfeeding and formula feed to rid him of the jaundice faster.
You are so right about the misinformation! so thankful for these helpful videos!
A friend of mine who gave birth recently was given the same recommendation by her pediatrician. :(
@@julieritual6854 oh wow that’s crazy! I just had my baby they told me to breastfeed him as much as I can so he can poop and pee it out. I’ve been giving him both formula and breast milk so hopefully it helps!
They did the same thing when I had my son. I was told I couldn't breastfeed him at all and ended up giving up trying. I just had my daughter 4 days ago and they are all about me breastfeeding to help her jaundice.
@@nikkis6121 did the baby girl also have Jaundice? I'm reading info as my soon sits under the light and wondering if we should give formula
In the UK mother are told not to give babies water for first six months. What is the advise in USA?
No water!
Thank you so much for your helpful videos! 🙏
Thank you so much. The information eases my worry with my 5 days old baby.
Same here
My baby now is 5 days old and I'm so worried. Can I ask u for how long it took for your baby to get well ??
@@rashaissa1120 what did you do?
my baby eye is also little bit yellow after three days ,do we need to worry
@@karimmedhat7932 my baby in a week time that's God she begins to feel better, I have put next to her in the bed 7 pieces of garlic, breastfeeding a lot and I put next to her white light on her . Hope that's helps you
Thanks alot. Very helpfull informationssss
My daughter had good birth baby is doing well feeding and strong however midwife arrived today threatened my daughter with social service and demanded she returned to hospital I am obviously a worried gran who having treated me own jaundice babies cannot believe the brutality they have put my daughter under and now taking blood ever two hours,
Sorry
Its ridiculous, how they dictate our lives into a medicine system they prefer
Hey hi dear my baby is 2 year old and he is suffering from cligar Nagar 2. We are giving him Phenobarbital. Is there any way to cure this or any suggestions if you know..
Please go see professionals if your baby has jaundice
Expose baby to sun light??? Haven’t you read the Guidelines?
Nooooo!
How much was billurubin level my kid is having 308um/l so does this need phototherapy?
Babies are very sensitive and hence mode of treatment I believe should be as natural as possible and Planet Ayurveda provide such way of treatment.
Great info!
Like how many days will I bring my baby in the sunlight
You have brought me relief after two weeks of worrying. Thank you!
My 1 month kid has a just yelloy head. And our local pediatrician in Russia has prescribed the Ursofalk. How do you think is it right to use such chemical medication in our case?
How is the baby now
Hii, my baby also has same thing although eyes are white
Thank you very much darling......for ur great advisement.....

Thank you ❤️
Too much informative
There’s a lot missing here. I have a very jaundice baby and she has to be triple fed because she’s so sluggish from jaundice she can’t breastfeed well enough to gain weight. Jaundice makes babies extremely tired and unable to gain weight. I’m surprised that’s not mentioned. Without my IBCLC I’d be lost. My baby lost way too much weight from no one mentioning this.
I feel calm now thank you
Thank you so much
I gave birth to my baby less than 2 days ago at 37w. They’ve been treating him with phototherapy but I’m concerned I won’t be able to continue nursing him since he isn’t passing many dirty diapers since he’s nursing. They want me to do formula. I feel so discouraged.
Well explained. Thank you
Thank you.
My baby is 17 days old. We were discharged from the photo therapy a couple of days ago. But now he's still yellow although the level of his bilirubin decreased but still above normal. I'm worried if it's rising again. Reading comments here comforted me knwoing that I am not alone. Being a first time mom, it scares me a lot if my son is sick.
Same problem how is ur son now? Is jaundice decreased now?
@@bpr7442 same here what about your baby ours is 9 days old now
