no need to worry jaundice after birth is a normal thing ,can happen to any child ,but if jaundice is by birth that it can be dangerous, so if jaundice occur after 24 hr of birth ,not a big issue, give sun light daily esp in morning of rising son ,mother should not take heavy antibiotics,within a few days your child will be okay. so take care .l. i think first paed. is right
