Baby Acne

My DD has crazy baby acne that started a week ago. At her 1 month check up it was only on one side now it is pretty much her whole face. Any tips on what I can do to make this go down?

Re: Baby Acne

  • My pedi told me with #2 that it peaks around 4-6 weeks then gets better. Nothing really is good for it except plain old water. No soap.
    Thanks to our wonderful RE our family is complete!

    Thanks! She is 5 weeks now and I did use soap twice thinking it would help. I will be sure to stay away from the soap until it clears up!

  • Not sure if it really was the fix but we put a few drops of breast milk on his forehead and cheeks, and used a breast milk soaked cotton ball on his under eyes and eyelids once a day for two days and it's basically gone.

    I have never heard of that! Where did you find out about that remedy?

  • Donnie had acne when he was around that age. Baby Aveeno worked great! Plain water didn't work for him.

  • I can't remember which blog I read it on but a friend also sent me a buzz feed link of 20 or so random things breast milk can fix. She recently soaked a washcloth and put it on her sons head to cure cradle cap. She said one time and it is gone.
