Hello
Welcome here.

I can understand your concerns.

There is no special diet which can make the baby's skin color fair.

Absolutely, the baby's health is of utmost importance.

Eat green vegetables and fruits (except papaya and pineapple).

Take your iron and folate supplements regularly.

The baby's skin color changes many times after birth. Do not worry about this.

Hope this helps.
Thanks.
