    I don't know but this link might help. You poor things - even the small things cause anxiety. Appears to be related to the liver and red blood cells but hopefully this link will help

    Bilirubin in the urine can be an indicator that your baby may be born with neonatal jaundice...nothing too much to worry about, he/she will be under blue lights for a litte while and will need to feed loads to clear their system
