Baby acne?? Or something else??
Hey mamas!! Ya girl needs some help. My daughter will be a month old on the 24th, and recently she is FLARING up with what I assume to be baby acne. Every morning she’s got a few new bumps. I know it’s normal, but what can I do to help it? She’s had one bath since she’s been born, should I be bathing her more often? Maybe a milk bath ? HELP

Breastmilk
Definitely baby acne! I used advanced baby aquaphor couple times a day or when baby face looked dry. It took about 5 days to clear up. Around day 3 it started to look worse and then you lose hope but keep applying because by day 4 and 5 baby skin will clear up. Just stay consistent. My baby is a month old and her acne came around week 1 and 2
My baby is 6 weeks and it just cleared up last week! We tried the aquaphor but she’s already an oily baby so it didn’t really help. We also tried the breastmilk bath but that made her break out more. We just washed her with baby soap and It eventually cleared up on its own! Both my babies had it and it went away around 2 months
I’ve been using tallow on my baby and I notice her skin looking better in just a few hours of putting that on. I also bathe her at least twice a week
My baby had really bad baby acne too and we used tubby Todd colloidal oatmeal cream, it worked really well
Baby acne goes away on its own. You can put breastmilk on if you want, but you don't need to buy anything for it.
