one month old baby with black lips

krishna85 · Apr 28, 2015

hi, my one month old baby girl has black inner lips.. both upper and lower. Her outer lips are a normal color. It looks as if she is a chain smoker. She was born like this. She is otherwise healthy and happy with gods grace. I have researched online and found that this usually goes away on its own. Are there any mommies who faced this problem and if so how long did it take for your child's lips to turn pink color. Your help is appreciated.

My DS had it too. I think it went away when he was 3 months or so, now they are fine.

Don't worry. My Baby was also born with dark lips. It goes away. It is super pink now. Don't apply anything. Mother's milk is sufficient. If it is dry you can apply a little ghee..
