Hi,

My little boy came up in small red spots that have white heads on, on his face scattered around his whole face & forehead, does nyone know wht they are?

They on't look like milk spots, he doesn't have a temp & is eating, he is sleeping longer than he has been but that could be him settling into a routine :shrug:

I have a health visitor round later, but just wondered if this is common?

Im breast feeding if that makes any difference :wacko:
 
Could be baby acne, very common xx

My LO had it, it's just hormones from my body working there way on her and hormones from the breast milk.

I tried expressed milk on her face but it made it worse, a little bit of Sudocream and fresh air cleared it up very quickly.

Congrats on your LB xx
 
Our babies we're born on the same day! :hi: My LO has been getting the odd one of these scattered over him for the past few days? My health visitors just been and didnt seem concerned? At first I thought they were flea bites and banished the cats from the house and sprayed the place but their still happening...
 
Does it move around? My LO had this after he was born. The nurses called it Newborn Rash.
 
he did have 4 differwnt new born rashes when he was born & he was so red all over the mw's had me see a baby doc b4 we could leave to make sure it wasn't anything as they had not seen such an aggressive form before - apparently, anyway the doc said it was ok he just had 4 different types at the same time - nothing to worry about, that all cleared up on its own after a few daus.

this one only came up this morning, is only on his face at the mo, i was just worried cos they look like spots adults would get only smaller

thanks for your info ladies im sure its nothing :-D xxx

babydust1990 - wow that's cool! what time was you LO born? :happydance:
 
This is TOOOOTALLLY normal! My LO had it and so did most of my friends' babies! she doesn't get it any more now since about 8 or 9 weeks
 
Sounds like baby acne. My baby has it. It started when he was about a week or so old on his forehead. Then moved to his cheeks and chin. Now at 5 weeks old, they are slowly disappearing. Think it's to do with blocked oil glands or something like that. What ever you do, don't pick them (not that you would) as they can scar so im told.
