The key is A. Continue breast feeding. [If jaundice lasts past the first week of life in a breastfed baby who is otherwise healthy, the condition may be called "breast milk jaundice.” This is predominantly unconjugated hyperbilirubinaemia. Cause may be actors in a mother's milk that help a baby absorb bilirubin from the intestine].
