Infant jaundice usually occurs because a baby's liver isn't mature enough to get rid of bilirubin in the bloodstream. In some cases, an underlying disease may cause jaundice. Treatment of infant jaundice often isn't necessary, and most cases that need treatment respond well to noninvasive therapy.
Jaundice may result from serious disorders, such as incompatibility of the newbornâs and motherâs blood type, excessive breakdown of red blood cells, or a severe infection. If jaundice develops in a newborn, parents should call their doctor right away. If jaundice is caused by a disorder, that disorder is treated.reastfeeding jaundice is common. It develops in 1 of 6 breastfed infants a few days after birth. It occurs in newborns who do not consume enough breast milk (often because the mother's milk has not yet come in well). Newborns who consume less breast milk have fewer bowel movements and thus eliminate less bilirubin.
