SanthoshiMom of a 8 yr 2 m old girl4 years agoA. Not eyes. Skin might have some changes but then as they will grow eventually they will get their color. Nothing to worry about it. Massaging will help to some extent. Massage everyday before bath. Use mild oils like coconut oil or almond oil. You can also use herbal bath powders than soaps.
