Baby acne

Acne started about 5 days ago and seems to only be getting worse. Looks very inflamed I’m not sure if I should make an appt for her. Any tips and suggestions about baby acne?

I know, baby acne is very normal. And it does get better. But if you feel like hers is getting worse, it could be an allergy to something in your breastmilk or the formula. And another thing that it could be is the face lotion/ointment. I was putting lotion on my child’s face after a bath, and I noticed that he was getting an allergy from it.

What else are her symptoms? Is she super fussy, have bad stuck gas, or have reflux?

Breast milk helps I think? Like putting it on a wash cloth or something

You can also mix your breast milk in with a lotion and use that

Mine has it too. Breastmilk does help a little bit.

My baby had bad acne and I was told about Mustela no rise cleansing water and I’ve used it every morning since purchasing. Acne got a lot better after two uses.

@Julie yes she has been fussy lately and not sleeping as much during the day. I’m also trying to cut down on sugar I would hate it to be from my breastmilk. I was using lotion after baths as well but stopped that I haven’t been using anything the past couple days. At certain times it looks inflamed and other times it’s just the bumps no redness but now thinking about it when and after she eats it does look really inflamed

@Alaina oh ok good to know thank you!!

What also really helped was that I used my breastmilk in his bath. And I noticed that it helped his skin a lot.
