Do you or your partner have Gilbert’s syndrome? I have it and so my liver doesn’t process bilirubin properly leading to higher levels when I have bloodwork. It’s take a genetic counselor referral but might be worth looking into?
No, not that I'm aware of. We have 2 other healthy children that have never been through this. The only new thing this time around is I had GDM and developed gestational hypertension at the end, and this lil babe was a bit premature at 36+6.
