How to process newborn skin

[RebelScum]

Can someone please give me some ideas for how to retouch this newborn's skin? I managed to make this poor baby's skin pink and blotchy. I'm not interested in taking the "newborn look" out of him (I've seen some so heavily retouched they just look like dolls and they sorta creep me out), I just can't figure out what I'm doing with his skin tones. Is this a whole different beast than adult skin tones? I've converted some to b&w but I'm sure Daddy will want one or two in color.
This is the SOOC image. I have PS CS2 and all help is appreciated! (And yeah, I know, kids and their wrinkly T-shirts nowadays...)

Off the top of my head, I know there's a photoshop action here: CoffeeShop Free PS/PSE Actions!: CoffeeShop Baby PowderRoom FREE PS/PSE Action!

I haven't had the opportunity to try it out because I've yet to shoot a newborn but I know that as a rule, Rita's actions work pretty well (and you can adjust the layers to make it less plasticy).

Cool! I'll try it out, thanks!
