A member asked:
My newborn has pale hands and feet and a tan face and body .. will the rest of her body be pale like her hands?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No, it's more likely: that the skin of babies of mixed race darkens over time, while the palms of the hands & soles of the feet remain pale. So, she may have a beautiful cafe-au-lait complexion.
