Baby acne. Any mamas experience this with their little ones? It breaks my heart. It looks bothersome although the pedi assures me it's common/normal and goes away in its own (usually). How long did it take to clear up if you've gone through it? Anything to speed up the process?
The detergent might help, I think sometimes we forget that babies rub against our clothes too. You took the pictures just in time.
@ajaye25, we're thinking of making the switch to clear & free detergent (we use it in her stuff but not ours) and will def try the breastmilk and monitor it. It started at 15 days for us. Took her 2wks photo and she was fine, next day-- bam! 😑
Nothing work for my little one. It started around 2 or 3 weeks old and didn't clear up completely until he was 3 months. You can try breast milk, warm water and fragrance free lotion.
Lol it'll come and go but it does clear away. My Dr said he'll probably have it bad when he is a teenager. Poor kids haha
@jloop7509, seriously. I'm like, slow down babygirl.. you have your teen years to battle acne. 😩 Hope it doesn't get any worse. Their poor little faces.
@mommysbabies, She is EBF. My mom had suggested the same thing, it feels so weird since it seems like her getting sprayed with breastmilk would clog her pores, not help them.. but I'm down to test it out!
Mine had it bad lol he looked like a tiny 13 yr old going through puberty. It goes away though. It took mine till 2 months for it to all be gone and not have come back some.
My babe just cleared up at 3m!
