Jaundice

This isn't so much a feeding question but I had no idea where to post

Basically I've just had third DC and like my older two DC we have struggled with jaundice

In regards to feeding I do EBF and I have been breastfeeding non stop since 2016 I breastfed my oldest till they where 4

I have a good supply and my children gain weight quickly so feeding issues have been ruled out as a cause of jaundice

However my children develop jaundice needing treatment within hours of been born and it lasts for weeks and weeks

We spend the first two weeks needing lights or just escaping them

My seconds levels got so high it could of caused brain damage (450 )

They thought it may be ABO incompatibility however the coombs test always comes back negative

My kids have been tested for a array of other things and it's always deemed a mystery but I just wondered if anyone had any out of the box ideas as to what could cause such severe jaundice? Or if anyone else has experienced similar?
