Hi, appears to be normal rash(erythema toxicum) which appears on day3 or 4 and will fade away in 2 weeks. Try not to apply coconut oil to face and body, rather it can be applied to scalp, body massage can be done with olive oil. After bath apply moisturising lotion to body.

Nothing to worry about.. Don’t apply any oil powder or Kajal to your baby.. Use cetaphil or dermadew moisturising lotion .. it’s enough
