Baby acne?

Question

My baby is 5 weeks old and what I assumed was baby acne popped up a week ago…. It seems to be worse today. Should I call the doctor and get her in before next month? I’m a FTM and feel awful bc anything I do doesn’t make it better and I’m at a loss 😞 it doesn’t bother her and she doesn’t have a fever so I was going to wait it out but I don’t want it to get worse

Answer

No worries mama, totally normal. It will clear up on its own. I usually put a little breast milk on it. 😊

Answer

My baby is going through this I’m gonna try tubby Todd all over ointment… ive heard nothing but good about it

Answer

Looks just like my 3 week old girl. Doc said it’s nothing to worry about, just makes baby look a little rough for a while.

Answer

Put some regular dove bar over skin. It will be gone next day!

Answer

My son got it really bad like this too. I’ve been putting Burt’s bees multipurpose ointment on it and it is clearing it up

Answer

Only baby acne. Don’t worry! My baby looks the exact same.

Answer

I read somewhere to use Mustela micellar water but I feel like it made it worse.. I switched to just a little breast milk when I can and it seems like it's helping.

Answer

My little man has this, i just squeeze some breast milk onto his cheeks every feed and it helps alot!

Answer

Does it get worse after feeding? Our first daughter had something similar, but got much worse and turned out to be a milk protein allergy. This could totally just be acne, but just keep an eye on it. ☺️
