TMI!!!!! Acne pictures... 😔

Shannie • 01/28/2020 👶🏼💙 11/30/2021 👶🏼💖

I’m 12+5 weeks today and my acne is destroying any self confidence I have about myself. I am absolutely disgusted, mortified, and ashamed of myself. I have struggled with acne since I was 11 but found a routine that worked for me and kept my acne to a minimum before I was pregnant. I was using Neutrogena face wash with a Tretinoin ointment and whichever moisturizer I liked. Now I cannot use Tretinoin while pregnant. I switched to using Cetaphil face wash and moisturizer with a witch hazel toner. I just don’t know what to do anymore. Looking at myself makes me sick to my stomach. I can’t wear makeup because it just exacerbates my acne. I’m a CNA and I feel like I gross my residents and coworkers out with my face!!! I just want to hide...
