Jaundice levels

My son is currently 2 weeks and 5 days old, he was born at 36+6 weeks so one day pre-term.

his had his levels checked at every midwife appointment and the level has slowly been creeping up, it is below the treatment line however.

As it is technically prolonged they sent us for a blood test to which the level was even higher than the ear tests we’ve had but again still below the treatment line.

He is feeding and gaining weight well, his nappies are normal colours so the doctors have told us to just monitor it.

I’m worried that his levels seem to be going up but they’ve doctors don’t seem bothered, is this something I should be worried about?
