Baby acne or something else?

Question

Pediatrician said it was just bad baby acne but my first never had it this bad.

Answer

My kiddo has it too- my pediatrician said 1% hydrocortisone cream can be put on it if your little one is showing signs that it might be itchy (rubbing up against your clothes, hands more by his face than normal, etc.) Hope that helps!

Answer

Yep, my babe has it too. It always settles down after a bath or wash. I get a warm wet cloth and wipe his face down when it looks really angry and that always helps too.

Answer

Both of my baby’s had this. I use warm water daily on his face and chest. It took about two weeks to completely clear up with my first. My son has currently had it for about a week and it’s already gotten a lot better.

Answer

Looks exactly like my sons face and was told it’s baby acne

Answer

I’d say baby acne. It will go away soon.

Answer

Looks like baby acne but I’m not a dr. My LO has it on her face,chest, and head. I try washing it everyday with soap and water seems to help.

Answer

Breast milk works AMAZING on baby acne

Answer

Do you breastfeed ? If you do rub breast milk on his face. It will help clear it up. My daughter had baby acne, too. Every time I feed her I would squeeze some milk on her cheeks and it cleared up pretty quickly.

Answer

I noticed wiping down with a wash cloth only water and putting nits on my sons hands helped clear it. Also bought tubby tod ointment.
