I'm so discouraged! When I used to look at pregnant women I would think oh look how she's glowing and beautiful! Now I look at myself and think what the heck is going on with my skin! I'm breaking out! Seriously I never had acne before and now I do! I'm so frustrated with my skin and it's embarasing too. Anyone else have this problem, or solutions?!

I do remember getting some acne at the very beginning of my pregnancy. There are def some meds you can still use, just check with your doc. Your hormones are going crazy right now so you just never know what they do to your body. Hang in there sweetie!!!

OMG, my face was awful the whole pregnancy! I've always had great skin, so this was a shocker to me. I still deal with it some and Cherie is almost 3 months old! I used the Acne Free system that you can get at most drugstores, but it has benzoyl peroxide in it and the verdict is still out on using that during pregnancy, so I can't really recommend it.

I got it and it passed by 20 weeks.

But my pp face is like, EEK! I am just trying to be patient and let it sort itself out

I have had a few pop up on my face on and off so far in the last month and lately have been getting some in the breast area and I never had that happen. I hope it will go away.

Well Thanks ladies, I'm just glad I'm not alone. Right now it's isolated in two little areas I just dont want it to spread. I'm using Nutrogena for now and my mom gave me metrocream because she thought it might be rosacea. It seems to be helping though so we'll see.

yep, I have it.
