Baby acne or hsv?? Help!

Question

Does this look like baby acne or hsv sores? My daughter is just under 2 weeks old. One thing that’s off is that she’s not feeding very well but she doesn’t have a fever or anything like that. I’m really scared that my baby will get it and I won’t catch it (PPA)

Answer

Super normal, it will probably get worse

Answer

That looks like acne to me. Had she been exposed to HSV recently? Also talk to someone about your PPA if you haven’t already (it really helps to have support)

Answer

baby acne, but if you are concerned it doesn’t hurt to call the doctor and even do a telemedicine to give yourself peace of mind.
