Ok so my newborn been under lights since Tuesday... The first test, the bilirubin came down... Then the second it came down more and they took him off lights... He bouta get another test in about 5mins. Do yu think the bilirubin would go back up since he been off lights all day? If it don't go back up he can come home with me

Nurse a ton if you are and feed him by a window! It will help pass better

The test is an indication if how well his liver is functioning, so I would imagine it is possible; however, after a few days normal liver function increases significantly. I'm sure he'll be just fine.
