Question
Is it normal for a baby’s face to peel? When will the peeling stop?
Answer
Facial peeling in a two-and-a-half-month-old baby is a normal phenomenon. This might be due to the dry weather. You can apply moisturizer to the baby regularly and ensure proper hydration measures. It’s also important to give the baby adequate water. If the baby starts to peel on the face at two months old, it could be a sign of calcium or vitamin deficiency. It is recommended to take the baby to the hospital for a trace element test to determine if there is a calcium deficiency. If there is, it may be necessary to supplement the baby’s diet with calcium-rich foods.
