My MIL keeps telling me to eat certain things so baby will be fair. I know its mostly genes but everyone at home is so into this. Just wanted to know what others have heard about this.
There is no science behind food changing baby's complexion, it is purely genetics. Better to focus your diet on iron, protein and calcium, that is what actually matters.
My family also pushed kesar and milk, I had it because I liked it, but doctor clearly said complexion is genetic. Eat balanced and dont stress over colour.
Beta in our time everyone said saffron milk and oranges, but truthfully it doesnt change skin colour, it is what nature decides. Just eat well and nourished.
Honestly no food decides baby's colour, that is all genes from you and your husband. The saffron milk and coconut stories are just myths, eat healthy for baby's health not skin.
