Is this baby acne? Its soo bad. It started off as just a couple bumps but it got worse. I just gave her a bath and put breastmilk on it. I hope it clears up. Its only on her face and a small amount on her neck.
My son has baby acne bad as well... I tried the breast milk & it made it worst... Wat i do is use aquaphor gentle wash & healing ointment on his face JUST A LITTLE twice a day.... It never goes ALL the way away BUT it clears it up & takes ALL the redness away so its not as noticeable & i also drink more water bcuz i nurse.... I hope that helps!
My baby has the same thing and I was barely going to post this question. Glad to read the recommendations, is it okay to use those cleansers on baby though?
Relax hun! Its normal! Malia had it for almost 2 months. I put nothing on it. If its in her pictures, she will STILL be a little cutie Then she can look back and giggle at herself, lol. I read lots oof articles recommending too do nothing.
I just took my baby in to the doctor for the same problem the doc told me to put cetaphil (sp) on her four or more times a day and its a mosturizer too you can find it at walmart for the head he told me to wash with selsum blue
Its always worth getting checked if you are concerned, my daughter started out like that then it started looking dry and scaly, it was an allergic reaction....
My baby had the exact same thing, her face looked identical to your baby's. They started at 1month. We tried everything from Eucerin Cream to Aveeno to washing w/clear warm water. I took her to her Ped. & he recommended I wash her face with Dove Sensitive Unsented Soap then apply Hydrocortizone "1%" to any area affected. I swear it work w/in a day. I still do the same thing if I notice them coming back. She's 3months now.
If you go to the Dr they will give you topical ointment .. its a fungus that causes the bumps that are otherwise called baby acne or hives..they will get really bad then go away on their own..the medicine helps them go away faster but my sons kept coming back cause he'd sleep n wipe his medicine off n I didn't want to over do it. Either way it it is the baby acne fungus it will get better.
Sorry so late but yes I have I used it for about a week two times a day and it cleared up she actually hasnt had it since. Its actually cheap soap bar it like 2.98
