The correct term for this is infantile eczema,which will keep appearing and disappearing by itself and heal by 1 year of age.
Use pears or dove for bathing,apply elovera cream twice a day,and keep skin moist by applying a mixture of equal parts of glycerin and rosewater or lime juice after giving bath everytime.
It's not a matter of concern,relax.
