Ive heard of newborn jaundice but im very yellow in my face and hands the last couple of days.

Any ideas?

This is abnormal. See your doctor.

Source: Medscape (used by doctors):

"Jaundice in the postpartum period is more often secondary to sepsis, drug use, prior anesthesia (halothane), transfusions (transmission of viral hepatitis), or gallstone disease."
