pregnancy treating your skin?" /> Has pregnancy been wonderful or terrible to your skin??

Answer

Same ol'.

Answer

I've always had hormonal breakouts when menstruated and ovulated.  Grrr.   But because of baby I now have a reason to buy nice facewash that won't put toxic substances in my bloodstream and that the hubs won't complain about me spending money on.    Sometimes I wonder if all those added ingredients like fragrance caused me to breakout more too.  I'm hoping this nicer facewash will help.  Bought everclen.  ewg.org is a great website for learning about toxic ingredients.  Some of the things I have previously used on my face could contribute to skin cancer. Ugh.   Sorry if too much info.  Drink water, sleep, eat less refined sugars, more real fruits and veggies.  I try to go with less processed food and avoid high fructose corn syrup.  Good luck!

Answer

My skin looks awesome! I got my acne curse over with in my teenage years 😂. My sis who never had acne broke out like crazy during her two pregnancies. Crazy!

Answer

I'm going to say it's hit or miss. I have troubled skin generally so there's that. I think in general my skin is definitely dryer than normal as for the acne, it comes in flare ups.  My skin will be great for a couple of weeks and then get dry and itchy and full of acne. It's frustration for sure.

Answer

My skin was definitely the worst I feel it's ever been during the first trimester in particular and then started subsiding in the second. Now that I'm in my third, I feel it's back to normal. I guess it's just your body adjusting to your new hormones.
