Haha yes I will admit I freaked out yesterday when I saw the skin peeling on his ankle. I had to google it right away. First time mommy and had no idea that was going to happen.

Answer

Newborn baby’s skin contains a special covering that protected the skin while they were in the uterus. This covering is known as “vernix” and keeps your baby’s skin from getting too much moisture. After birth, this covering starts to shed and that gives the appearance of flaking. This is a normal process and not actually the result of dry skin.
The risk of using lotion on your baby at this time can cause your baby’s body to absorb chemicals that could harm their system. Research done in 2008 by scientists show that “phthalates” in lotion can actually lower the testosterone levels in male babies. They don’t really know if lotions contain these chemicals, so it is safer to refrain from using them in newborns.
