Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you want fair complexion of your child, complexion of child depends upon various factors like environmental factors and most important genetic. It cannot be pre- decided. If dark color is due to genetic reasons it cannot be changed. Avoid anything on face as newborn has very delicate skin. You can take omega 3 softgels. I also suggest you to take nutritious diet rich in green leafy vegetables ,fruit , cereals, pulses, milk and milk products. Give child bath in milk for few days. You should give coconut to eat to mother of baby. After birth of baby you can apply olive oil and almond oil for gentle body massage of your baby as it will nourish skin of baby. Drink plenty of water and you have to give diet to the mother of child which is very nutritious.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
