You know I ate completely crappy food when I was pregnant. I didn't smoke or drink I took my prenatals almost everyday I ran up 3 flights of stairs at least once a day until the very end. My daughter was born 2 weeks early weighed 6lbs 8ozs and didn't have colic or jaundince. Honestly I think its just something that happens or doesn't happen I'm not sure there is anyway to prevent it.

my son was 8lbs 8oz my girl 7lbs 3 oz she didnt have juandice as nearly as bad as him,but she had to have a certin kind of formula and bottle .Notice how more and more problems are generating these days i wonder if it has to do with the food and lifestyles we live.
