Baby Acne!

Has your LO ever gotten baby acne? If so how long did it last for and what things did you do to make it go away?

I think Jason's cleared up before 10 weeks old? I didn't think you were supposed to 'treat' it, but just leave it, I could be wrong though

If you're breastfeeding, put some expressed milk on it.

It's normal for babies to get something like that after birth, it's their skin getting use to the outside world, I didn't apply anything and it cleared up itself x

Michael had milk spots, they just go away on their own

I have no idea why they call it baby acne here ...
And I was very surprised when I mention the spots to my friend and refered to it as sweat spots and she said it's baby acne .
Because the sweat spots it's how they call it in our country ( I am from Europe ) and as the names suggest , the baby is hot a lot and it's sweating a lot and because the skin is so sensitive it cause the spots . My friends DD had it not only on her face but on her body too . How can baby have acne on her body ?
Also she is month old and she dressed her a lot inside the house . And I mean long sleeve onsie , pants , socks , two blankets and sometimes hat . And every time she hold her she put a blanket on her . And she doesn't believe me the baby is hot ...
Well sometimes it's impossible to tell advise to first time parents even tho you mean good .
But if you are sure your baby is not too warm than it may be something else . My doctor always told me to check the belly . If the baby has worm belly she /he is worm . I say it because my son always had cold hands and feet no matter what and more I dressed him more he sweat but hand and feet still cold ...
