No bris may take place if the fever has reached a temperature of 99.5 degrees Fahrenheit (~37.5 degrees Celsius). Levels of jaundice can fluctuate from day to day. If the jaundice is 14 or above, then the bris must be postponed. If the level has stabilized or is going down at 12, then the bris may take place.

If no mohel is available or arrangements cannot be made to bring in a mohel, then the bris will have to be delayed.

It adds a festive element, but it's not essential. If there is no challah, one may recite the blessing over a bagel or a slice of bread. If you'd like to give someone an honor at the bris who may not be comfortable holding the baby, letting them recite the blessing over the bread is a very nice thing to do.
