My newborn (10days old) has flaky skin since around day 4 or day 5. It’s all over her, from face to body to limbs. Is it normal?

It is normal! The outer layer of skin serves as a protective barrier when the baby is in the womb. It will shed naturally over two weeks or so.

Newborns usually have flaky skin. This should improve and new skin will develop

Yeap she is "shedding" her old skin by mid 1st month she will be fine
