Jaundice due to ABO incompatibility​

2017-06-02 18:00:06
My baby was diagnosed with jaundice on 3rd day of birth with bilirubin level 17.6 mg/dl. She was on phototherapy for 4 days and the bilirubin level was 13.4 at the time of discharge. After 25 days the bilirubin is still 11.6 mg/dl. How long will it take to reduce completely? My baby got tanned post phototherapy. How long will it take to lighten?
