jaundice might be caused by insufficient milk, but can not use as judgement symptom for milk amount. you can judge whether your milk sufficient or not by your bb's sleeping hours after intake your milk -- if he/she could have two hours continuous sound sleep, that means you have fed him/her sufficiently.
Jaundice is very short term thing, you should not give up your breast feeding because of this. even you do not breast feed bb during this jaundice period, you should express out the milk and store them in freezer to feed baby later, this will also help you maintain your milk flow -- breast milk is so precious and so good for baby, you just do not want to waste it or wean it. I am loyal fan for breast feeding...
hang on, mommies, for baby's long term benefit, feed them your milk! western doctors do not really bother whether you can breast feed bb or not, so some of their suggestion could seriously hinder your breast feeding success.
My bbs all have some level of jaundice, I continued feed them, and take them out to do some gentle sun bath in the morning or afternoon -- they were good ok very fast. I heard our Asian bbs have 30% NB jaundice rate, which will disappear within 2 ~3 weeks after birth even without any treatment. dont worry too much. as long as eyes ok and not so yellow on skin, should be no problem. In the main time, you should remember maintain your milk -- the 2nd and 3rd weeks are the most important weeks to boost your milk, don't miss them.
