Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Its quite common for complexion of babies to change and there is no cause for concern.
Its not permanent.
Final complexion may be around 2-3 years of age.
Exclusive breast feeding for first six months and weaning with nutritious home made weaning food. replenish its diet fruits, milk and lots of green leafy vegetable and egg whit.
The child will definitely match the colour of parents
Be relaxed
Happy Parenthood.
Take Care
Best regards
