Baby dull skin
Hello Doctor,
I know this is very silly question i am going to ask but i am little bit worried that's why asking .
My 3 months old baby was very whitish in complexion even after 15 days of born but day by day his skin is going to be dull in complexion .
Is there any specific reason for this.
Or what should I do for fair complexion.
Please suggest.

Skin complexion would change from newborn to infancy, but if it's related to parent's skin complexion then nothing to worry...

Normal most babies are fair at birth, at 1-3 months you will notice the true complexion
