Orange noses are a sign of jaundice.
My Kyleigh had jaundice early on but the orange nose stuck around.
Her doctor said it was because of the carotene in the foods I was feeding her.
Sweet potatoes, Carrots, and also green beans have them.
I'm sure it is nothing to worry about. Probably the food.

I thought it was the jaundice that made Kyleigh have her orange nose. She had it for the whole first year! Her favorite foods were sweet potatoes and carrots.
I asked the doctor (because I thought that eating carrots caused orange skin was an old wive's tale), he said it was the carotene in the food.
Nothing to worry about at all!!
Your son is fine Very Happy
