Blood Group Incompatibility (Rh or ABO problems). If a baby and mother have different blood types, sometimes the mother produces antibodies that destroy the newborn's red blood cells. This causes a sudden buildup of bilirubin in the baby's blood. This type of jaundice usually begins during the first 24 hours of life.Rh problems are now preventable with an injection of RhoGAM to the mother within 72 hours after delivery.This prevents her from forming antibodies that might endanger subsequent babies.reastfeeding Jaundice.

After birth, your baby's liver takes over. Sometimes, your newborn's liver can't break down bilirubin as quickly as his body makes it, and it starts to build up. Because bilirubin is a yellow compound, it turns your baby's skin and eyes yellow. Too much bilirubin in the blood is the most common cause of jaundice.
