Baby started with a few small red bumps but now its a really bad acne breakout. I took him to the pediatrician and sort of felt dismissed and was just told “it’s normal” but now under his eye and his eye lid is swollen and the breakout is not resolving. Noticed it first Sunday, two little pimples but starting Tuesday it got way worse and now it’s really bugging me. (Maybe he rubbed it idk)
Ik I’m a first time mom and probably just freaking out but any tips or suggestions? Breast milk does nothing for it I started aquaphor on it twice yesterday but that seems to have done nothing either

This just happened to me they got bad so fast but within days the original acne started to clear up and dry out although new bumps keep forming it’s getting better everyday. It’s completely normal and hormonal but I was the same way it bothered me so much seeing red marks all over her face and inflamed :( I promise it gets better! I made sure to wipe with a warm water washcloth nightly and I put some tubby Todd ointment on the parts of her face with acne that seemed dry
