Sounds normal to me. Newborn skin peels, as they get used to being in open air.

The peeling is normal, but if it's red and raw, that would be a possible fungal infection and would require anti fungal cream. Air out as much as possible. Dry well after a bath. Apply diaper rash paste (not ointment) to protect the skin.

In the neck folds?
Desitin works like a charm.

Very common because of the trapped moisture. Dry it well after baths and diaper changes, then apply diaper cream. Once it’s more healed, I make it a habit to put baby powder in the creases after each diaper when they are newborns.
