This is a multicenter birth cohort observational study. Pregnant women are enrolled at participating institutions, and infants are followed from birth to 12 months of age with longitudinal collection of skin findings, skin barrier function, skin microbiota, skin lipids, hematologic and immunologic markers, and the use of skin-care products. Routine skin care at each institution is neither assigned nor modified, and associations between its amount and frequency of use and outcomes related to atopic dermatitis and food allergy are analyzed.
