Hi,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic Forum,
It doesn't sound like albinism. Your child seems to be having light colored hair. Its too early to predict any abnormality now especially without seeing. Its better if you show your child to a pediatrician, any abnormality can be ruled out.
Hope your child gets well soon.
