What is Neonatal Jaundice: Prevention & Care about?

Neonatal jaundice is the yellow discoloration of skin and eyes in babies from birth to 28 days. Early breastfeeding can help prevent jaundice caused by dehydration and breastmilk aids healthy development. Babies at risk of severe jaundice include preterm babies, those with low birthweight, jaundice within 24 hours of birth, and those with blood type O or Rhesus Negative mothers. Healthcare workers should monitor at-risk babies closely and refer them for specialist care if needed.
