A. Baby's complexion or color totally depends on the genes. We cannot change it. Also the real skin color of the baby will be visible only after six months. However you can try some home remedies. Give her oil massage before bathing. Use a mixture of gram flour(home made) and turmeric powder (pure one) instead of soap while bathing. But before using it for her full body do a patch test for one of two days by applying in one small area of her body and see if there is any allergic reaction. Also, Your baby should be peeing anywhere between six to ten times a day which means the baby is taking feeds properly. If not then make sure the baby is latching and taking feeds well or if ur milk supply is sufficient. Also there should be a gradual weight gain. Keep a check on these factors.
