Has anyone had acne since becoming pregnant?

Question

I know hormonal acne is a thing but I'm still suffering from it in the second tri! I've never had acne before, and it is all over my forehead! It hurts and is very bothersome.

Answer

Ugh yes mine was horrible up until now as long as I wash my face everyday! I've been using baking soda and warm water to wash and then coconut oil as a moisturizer and it has changed everything!!!

Answer

I also wanted to say this stuff is the BOMB for spot treatment!! It might seem like a lot for a small bottle but it seriously lasts forever and has been such a life saver!

Answer

Uggh yesss!!! They are the painful under the skin ones for me and it sucks!! I haven't had it this bad in 10yrs (since I graduated) 😭😭 I feel like a teen all over again!

Answer

ugh. I sent a picture to my friend the other day complaining. I watched it all day! it was horrible. 
I mean I still get acne. but this one was bad!!

Answer

Yes! It's the worst- I bought the fancy face wipes to keep by the bed for days I'm too lazy to wash and I've been using masks to help! I've never needed a skincare regimen before so this is crazy

Answer

Yes! I never had acne going though puberty and then through my ENTIRE first trimester it has been so bad! Does any one else get it on their shoulders and chest? That seems to be the worse for me. I have been using St. Ives and letting it dry (like a mask) and that has helped!

Answer

Yes ME!!! 🤷🏻‍♀️😕 it started at about 6 weeks and hasn't stopped since (I'm 16+1). I have about 4 big red spots and just as those are going, new ones come up! 😒 I've had them on my chest and top of my boobs as well since the beginning! Im hoping they'll just go away soon because nothing I've tried gets rid or stops them! ☹️

Answer

Saaaame, I never get pimples, never I didn't even get pimples when I went through puberty, now my face neck and back are covered in pimples. It sucks, but this baby is worth every blemish.

Answer

I always had issues with acne but it got worse and I started getting pimples around my eyelids lol

Answer

Terribly! I feel like I'm hitting puberty. My face (horrible), back, upper arms and chest. So ugly and I hate it !!!
