Until her daughter was three months old, this mother smiled like a flower whenever she looked at her baby and compared her to the photos taken at birth.
When a baby is born, apart from health concerns, the baby’s appearance is also very significant to the parents.
The first thing the adults in the family often think about is how the baby looks, whether it is pretty or not. In many cases, the parents were disappointed.
Some even cried when they saw that their newborn looked so “ugly.”
Surprisingly, however, the baby “metabolized” wonderfully just a few months later, which astonished and delighted everyone.
A Chinese mother found herself in a similar situation.
When the birth went smoothly, and she saw her daughter for the first time, the daughter she had worked so hard to conceive and bring into the world, the mother was so shocked that she burst into tears.
Her daughter had purplish-red skin that was dark and immediately reminded her of the color of a taro root.
Additionally, the baby’s head was still very long and not cute at all.
Worried, she asked the doctor and received the answer that her baby was completely healthy and normal.
The baby’s head was slightly deformed due to the pressure during passage through the birth canal.
The skin color was also not a sign of a medical condition, and as the baby grew older, these issues would disappear.
Although the doctor confirmed that the baby was perfectly normal, this mother was still worried and depressed inside.
This continued until her daughter was three months old and she looked at her appearance.
Compared to the photos taken at birth, this mother smiled like a flower immediately.
Her daughter had almost completely changed her skin, with a round face with chubby cheeks, large round eyes, and a sweet mouth.
Especially, the baby’s skin was no longer purplish but had turned white and pink, which made her overjoyed.
It is easy to see that most newborns often do not have the beautiful and shiny appearance that parents desire.
However, parents can rest assured that the child’s appearance will change within a few months. This is also why newborns are not particularly attractive.
On the one hand, bathing newborns in amniotic fluid for too long leads to wrinkled skin and enlarged eyes.
This is because they have been bathed in the amniotic fluid of the uterus for so long.
When the newborn’s skin is exposed to the outside air, it becomes wrinkled. Then there is the deformed head that occurs in normal births.
Since the heads of newborns are squeezed during birth, they are often deformed, flattened, or excessively long.
Parents should not worry, as the baby’s head will return to its normal shape after some time.
This is called vernix caseosa. It has many positive effects on the baby, but it cannot be cleaned in one go.
Coincidentally, this significantly reduces the child’s “beauty index.”
Characteristics of newborn skin: Newborns have very delicate skin, so their skin is often red.
Many children also have jaundice, making their skin yellow. After a few months, with the baby’s development, the baby’s skin will turn pink and white.
