Can eating too much pumpkin porridge turn your baby's skin yellow?

Pumpkin is rich in carotene, which is widely found in yellow leafy vegetables and fruits, including pumpkin, carrot, lettuce, citrus, etc.

When children eat too much pumpkin and ingest too much carotene, the carotene will be deposited in the stratum corneum of the epidermis. As a result, the skin in areas such as the nose, philtrum, forehead, palms, soles, around the eyes, next to the nails, around the joints, or in areas with the most wrinkles on the body will turn lemon yellow, making the children look like they have jaundice. This symptom is called caroten xanthoderma.
