Answer:

The symptoms indicate jaundice ,which is due to immaturity of the liver.

This condition is known as Hyperbilirubinemia.

During pregnancy ,the bilirubin is removed from the baby's blood by the placenta. When the  baby is born, this function is taken over by the liver of the baby.

Bilirubin can accumulate in blood ,fluid and tissues, if the liver is not functioning properly or has some infection. Since Bilirubin has a pigment it causes the yellowish tinge in skin and eyes, the condition which is known as Jaundice.

The Jaundice which occurs within the very first few days of child birth is known as Physiologic jaundice. Low levels of Bilirubin are not a major concern, but measures should be taken so that Bilirubin does not increase to dangerous levels.
