Baby born with jaundice. Pray.

Hi. First of all my prayers are with your niece (I already know she's beautiful), you and your family for her continued health, growth and strength. As a mother of a 3 month early premature baby (many years ago; she's now a wonderful young lady of 30); I know the fear, worry, and helplesness one feels at a time like this. Just keep the faith and never stop praying. (Especially prayers of gratitude when she overcomes this and comes home to everyone's loving and waiting arms.) Let us know how she makes out. May God be with you all.

Aww...my son also had jaundice when born. He didn't have to stay in the hospital tho he was sent home w/a special incubator. He was a big baby too. Best wishes & god bless.

I think it happens with many new born and its common. I am not saying its good. Its bad to happen. my new born nephew had this and jad to be admitted to hospital again to undergo radio therapy.

Praying! But take it easy,for my baby had encountered the same problem in her four days,and she had been in the ICU for 24 hours.The doctor said to me"Not anything at the worth" .Your angle will get well soon.

it's always saddening to see little ones needing medical attention. But the baby will be well soon and will be home sooner than you think. I will pray for your little angel and all the other little angels.

Hi ketybhagat,it's really sad to hear the little angel is going through this but dont u worry,she will be fine by God's grace and i will remember her in prayers.i will like u to help her too by believing the blood of Jesus could heal her cos the bible says "by His stripes we are healed".i mean what i said if only u would try it out i mean by faith.Peace be unto her and all your family.

She will be fine. Jaundice is treatable. There is nothing to worry about. The baby will be in my thoughts.

Why was your niece placed in ICU for jaundice? Just curious cause my baby has jaundice as well...its kinda making me worry.

That's so sad, I will be praying for your niece's baby to recover very soon. I can't imagine the trauma that she is experiencing watching her little baby fighting for life. My God protect the baby from any harm and may he give your niece strength to stay focused and strong for her baby. God bless.

hi dear ketybhagat with the kind of attention the kids get at the hands of the hospital staff it is common these days. well the weight of the baby is rather less and needs to be taken care of . well i pray for the quick recovery of the baby!!

it's actully common for chinese babies to get jaundice on the 2nd or the 3rd day after delivery.. jaundice is treatable and it is curable.. well.... i hope your neice would be better soon and i'll definitely keep her in my prayers :)

Sorry to hear that. It's actually common in newborns, but it's completely treatable. Once the bilirubin levels drop and the treatment is stopped, it's unlikely that the treatment will be needed again. Sending good thoughts and hoping she's home quickly!
