Does she have any other symptoms?

I think week 7 is meant to be worst week and then it should start to clear! My baby was covered!

Are you breastfeeding at all? Putting some breastmilk on it can help it clear up

This looks like an allergy. Not acne.
Milk, laundry detergent, a lotion or perfume you use,
I would see a provider in person to properly diagnose this and rule out other causes

That looks like a newborn rash. I think after 2 months it got better for us. Oatmeal baths really helped my kiddos.

Hi, I had it initially with my baby on his neck and chest area, was told to avoid putting any cream or oil, it did clear up on its own.
Link I have on baby skin if it helps -

My little one also has baby acne. He is 6 weeks and it is supposed to peak at this age, it is supposed to clear on its own in time xx

If you’re breastfeeding, cut all dairy for at least 2 weeks and see if that helps! As Ali said above change laundry detergents and lotions etc.
Balmonds Skin Salvation is the best thing I’ve ever found for all rashes, it’s all natural ingredients so can be used from 6 weeks old x
Only lived at my address for 5 months, I can’t go into detail of everything that’s happened with this 1 neighbour because it’s too much 🤣 but basically he’s weird and creepy as f*. He’s wanting too much information about my toddler, i am 4 weeks pp and haven’t answered the door once (since giving birth) to his parcels being left here or him ringing my bell. I feel like I’m being a bad neighbour but he’s just too much. I don’t want to stand at my door having the same repetitive conversation of him delving too much into my life, while I have a baby and a toddler now to watch.
Also my dog only barks at him…
He stares into my window every time he walks by (he lives right next door) honestly I wish I could spew every encounter I’ve had with him here but it’s too much 🤣😅 anyway - how do I stop feeling like a nasty neighbour? I don’t want him to hate me incase he is a psycho and tries anything but I also don’t want him to speak to me…

When I was in my partners car yesterday I found sunglasses down the wee side passenger bit but they are usually sunglasses id wear and I said to him are these yours and he was like naw they must be yours cause your the only one that’s been in this car but I have a head like a siv I can’t remember but I leave sunglasses lying everywhere, I have a pair in my car .. and I also have ones left in my boyfriends house that have been there for ages. But I can’t remember 🤣 I think I was at a fair middle of August and bought a pair for a pound.

My hasn’t had a poo for almost 6 days now. He’s mostly breastfed and once in a while on formula. Have spoken to health visitor but was adviced to
Monitor. I’ve also done lots of exercises with my baby like bicycle ride and tummy massage but nothing. His tummy is soft and winds a lot but no poo yet. Should I still be worried ? Almost 7 weeks

I have just had my 5 day appointment and my baby has dropped 9%. I've been booked for a reweigh on Monday and told if she's lost more we will be sent to hospital. I said that's fine but I will refuse any feeding plan as I was put on one last time ( triple feeding) and it made my daughter projectile vomit and my mh plummet. She then asked if I had through about pumping and I said no I won't be pumping 5 days PP and 1 day after my milk has come in. Honestly the whole appointment has left me so angry at the pressure they put on us to get back to birth weight in 10 days. My partner also said she was weighed wearing a hat and blanket ( I had a c section so couldjt se)

How much colostrum should I bring with me to the hospital? I’ve got about 20ml but don’t want to take all of the syringes with me as I know I won’t use them all. Thank you 😊
