Genetic Hyperpigmentation in baby
I'm 15 weeks pregnant. I have developed a problem of hyperpigmentation when I was 7 years old. I have some brown pigmented spots mostly on right side of my body. Now I'm worried that my baby can also get this. I could never ask this to my gynaecologist as I was not comfortable asking this in front of my MIL. What can I do or any medications I should take so that my baby doesn't get this condition? Please help.

If it is genetic then nothing  can be done. You should consult a skin specialist in person for diagnosis  of your skin condition. When we come to know the diagnosis then only some suggestion may be given.
