Baby acne

[poppypd]

My LO has developed quite bad baby acne. She's not bothered by it so just have to wait til it clears up. Docs said to leave it alone and it's a reaction to the air that brings out the sebum??? - Weird

Has anyone else's have/ had this, wondered how common it is? She is 5 1/2 weeks now

My Nephew had it. He's 11 days younger than Jack so he's almost 9 months. He had quite big purple red spots for a good few months when he was tiny. The Doc's told my Brother & SIL to just leave it and they'll go eventually. He still has it very slightly but it's almost gone now x

Joe had it and it is much better now. But can look more spotty after a long breastfeed or cuddle (I assume because of sweat/heat)

Jaiden had it really bad a week or so ago, still got it now but it seems to be going xx

Jake had it bad for 2 weeks when he he was younger, I just used warm water and a bit of cotton wool to clean it everyday and it went away

Emily had it a week ago - on one cheek, but seems to have pretty much cleared up now.
