Skin lightening is practically a myth and do not fall for it. You cannot ultimately make it lighter. It has a genetic component and you cannot change that. No soaps, lotions or creams are likely to be effective. At the most you can use sunscreen lotions when you take the baby out. Just maintain a healthy lifestyle and a proper diet and things would be at its best.
