Baby jaundice

I have yet to deliver but from what i read or heard, blood group O parents will most likely get baby with high jaundice. Is it true ? Will all babies get jaundice ? And if the jaundice is not so high, will they still need to extend their stay in hospital ? And usually how long does jaundice last? #FTM

I don't think so. I'm type B, I had jaundice as a baby and my firstborn had it too. But for us likely cz we both have G6PD deficiency. My sister didn't have it and she didn't have any jaundice as a baby. My 2nd is a girl and I'm hoping she doesn't get G6PD deficiency and jaundice when she's born in a few months' time.
