Bilirubin level of a baby may rise from second day of life. This is known as physiological jaundice.
Different other parameters are taken into account to know if any intervention is required.
These are;
Baby blood group/ mother's blood group
G6pd level
Gestation
Birth weight
Any complication at birth.
You must also visit a Paediatrician for clinical evaluation of child for proper guidance.
