Causes of jaundice in newborn babies. Jaundice is caused by too much bilirubin in the blood. This is known as hyperbilirubinaemia. Bilirubin is a yellow substance produced when red blood cells, which carry oxygen around the body, are broken down. The bilirubin travels in the bloodstream to the liver. The liver changes the form of the bilirubin so it can be passed out of the body in poo. However, if there's too much bilirubin in the blood or the liver can't get rid of it, excess bilirubin causes jaundice.
