How To Gain My Baby's Complexion?

Hello Doctor, My daughter is 9 months old. I want to get suggestion from you regarding her complexion. When born she was pink in color, in a week time she became darken. Later on her complexion increased to some extent. Now her face and body are wheatish color whereas her leg parts are black in color. If it's genes related, myself fair in complexion and her father very fair.
Being educated, though I could understand health is more important than complexion, wanted to check about about it in this stage itself if any best can be done from my end to gain her complexion. Looking forward your reply !
Thanks,
Nirmala

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I can appreciate your concern, you would see many variation in complexion of your daughter, till she grow older, after the age of 16 years you would find the real texture of her skin, till then this would be very uncertain, in short this is highly gene related, either fair or dark, hope this information helps you have nice day.
