A. Don’t resort to any creams or soaps for the sake of colour. Even until six months of age the baby will be undergoing lots of hormonal changes and because of that there will be dark discoloration and by one year of is the baby will get the actual colorWrite Your Answer Here

A. A None of parents do complain that their kids turned dark after being in phototherapy but I would like to tell you the complexion of the child changes uptill the age of 6 to 8 months after that only it is going to be certain what complexion your child is going to take so you can wait for sometime I’m sure your child is going to retain this for collection
