Serum bilirubin levels raises 6 mg% presence of complications, fetomaternal morbidity, and mortality was significantly increased with10 -14 mg%.The higher serum bilirubin levels had significant effect on maternal outcome as morbidityp value is 0.0166, mortality with p value 0.035,fetal outcome p value 0.0021.
