It's A Old Wives Tail.
The Skin Color Is In The DNA, Nothing The Mother Eat Will Change That.
So, Not True At All.

No, it doesn't happen. It is determined by genes from the parents. A number of babies are born 'bright' but will get slightly darker over time.
Of course, babies skin color after birth is affected by the sun, and they can also get darker then.

Skin color is genetic, has nothing to do with what you eat!
