Tactics to lower the jaundice level of the baby:[1]
One must do everything possible to ensure that the circumcision takes place on the eighth day, including following various medical directives to ensure the child is healthy by the eighth day, and doing whatever one can to lower the babies jaundice level. [Various Segulos have been suggested and followed in this regard, including: placing a gold item on the baby, washing the hands of the baby three times every day non-consecutively as we do in the morning, placing the baby in the sun, overfeeding him, under feeding him, placing the baby in a bathtub together with carp fish, using a blue light to shine on the baby.[2]]
