Baby skin color not changing uniformly
Hi Doctors,
Baby is 14 days old. The skin color started changing. But it's not uniform.. some places in face have little white areas while other places have become dark.
Do we need to worry about the white/pale color places in the face? Or its common and we need to wait?
We did not bath the baby since the umbilical cord clip has not been fallen yet. Thank you
