A. hi dear When your baby is born, their skin will often be reddish-purple in color. As they start to breathe air on their own, their skin should transition to more of a red color, which will then fade during the first day after birth. As their initial color fades, they may have blue-hued hands and feet.

Q. When my daughter was born, her weight was 2.350 and at 6 weeks her weight was 4.2. Is it normal? How many grams should be added? One more question. When she was born, her lips were pink in color, then they turned black. The color has not come back yet. she had undergone phototherapy. Maybe that's why her lips turned black?
