Personally I’d say baby acne however I was told I could tell by feeling it! It feels rough and raised its baby acne which is also very common on cheeks, forehead chin. it it feels flat or only slightly bumpy and looks like just a patch it’s a heat rash which is rarely on baby’s face more common on back, armpits, folds xx

I’d say baby acne or milk rash my daughter got it at around 4-6 weeks but has now gone. But just confirm with your health visitor or doctors at your 6 weeks check she’s now 8 weeks x
