Anyone else having pregnancy acne?!

Question

So my skin wasn't bad before pregnancy. I would get the occasional breakout (usually around AF time). But it would only be one or two blemishes. Now during pregnancy my face is staying constantly broke out pretty much all over. Is anyone else going through this? I thought pregnancy cleared up or improved your skin. I'm getting the opposite lol

Answer

Under both sides of my jawline and over my *entire* back. Not helping with the general feeling gross thing I have going

Answer

Right there with ya! Same exact story! Never ever have acne besides a little when AF arrives. But since I was 6 weeks pregnant I have been non stop breaking out! 
On the chin, on my forehead. My nose. Like what. The. Heck?! Lol! I've never experienced this during a pregnancy!

Answer

When I was pregnant with my son my skin was awesome, no acne.  This time it's complete opposite!  I'll be interested to see if it turns out to be a girl this time.  Different hormone reactions cause different symptoms... I use clindamycin (sp?) outside of pregnancy & dr said its ok during pregnancy.  Might want to check with your dr too.

Answer

My chin!!! 😭 the face wash I normally used to keep the acne down when I was on my period isn't even working anymore. Instead it just dries the crap out of my face... So I'm trying to keep it washed and moisturized!

Answer

Yes so bad! It's horrible. What happened to the pregnancy glow 😕

Answer

I think it's pretty common! I have breakouts on my chin, apparently that's where you get acne when it's hormonal. It's the worst!!

Answer

YES! My chest and arms have broken out so bad. I'm getting married next Saturday and I'm really worried about looking like a hormonal teenager!
