Acne

[Sarah88]

I'm just windering if anyone else has experience getting acne or rather an increase in pimples since becoming pregnant?
I noticed that I got break outs around my chin. It's so horrible

When I was pregnant my face went CRAZY! It was awful I didn't even want to walk out of the house because I was so embarassed. Since having my miscarriage most of it has went away but you can still see the little red places where they were.

I'm sorry for your loss. I can't imagine what it would be like. However, thank-you for your reply. Good to know that im not the only one who is getting/ has got acne from pregnancy. Whatever happened to that glow?

I have. My face used to break out occasionally. Just small areas, and small breakouts though. Usually around my chin/hair line. But now I get huge breakouts, all over my face. Especially in the middle of my cheeks. Hopefully it will clear up in a few weeks after I give birth..
I have been using Proactiv.. it doesn't even phase it though.

My skin as gotten really bad since I got pregnant! I have breakouts on my chin and on my forehead, I HATE it. It's so embarrassing.

Thats really common in early pregnancy... I think the glow comes later
Here's hoping !!

still no glow, my skin has definately got better in the second trimester. It was awful in the first trimester, a wonderful symptom of pregnancy, lol xx

Haven't so much had a problem with spots but my face has broken out in lots of dry patches.

Since stopping the pill, my skin has got worse and worse, but it wasn´t too bad and I had it under control and could cover the odd breakout with make up. Since getting pregnant, my skin has been really bad though. It wouldn´t be so bad if they were just little yellowheads that I could squeeze out, stick some stuff on and let them dry out......but no....they are red and bumpy and don´t seem to amount to much, except to be painful and unsightly.

Since hitting the 2nd trimester, they seemt to be getting better....still waiting for the lovely "glowing" phase though!!

Yes, I have that too and just when I think I look good with the makeup, I look in my rear view mirror in my vehicle and go, UGH. Patchy skin and patchy makeup.

I too get breakouts but nothing serious. One big one, it goes away and I get another.
