I drool therefore I breakout...anyone else?

For the past 2 weeks I am drooling like a teething baby while I sleep. I literally have to keep turning the pillow. Because of this lovely fact my chin is breaking out like crazy. I KNOW it's from drooling because the pimples follow the same path from the corners of my mouth that I mop the drool from every morning.

I wash my face at night before bed (to take my makeup off) and as soon as I get up in the morning and I'm still breaking out like crazy. Anyone have any ideas how to stop the breaking out? My only idea is to sleep with a Zorbeez in my mouth...  Wink

ETA: Zorbeez = Sham-Wow lol We have the generic ones.

    Sometimes I catch myself almost drooling even when I'm awake but zoning out.  I hate having to breathe through my mouth so much because I'm stuffed up.  I am a drool monster though!

    Haha, I feel your pain.  I told DH the other day that I've been drooling and he didn't believe me at first.  Then, when I convinced him, he started laughing.  He does love me, but he takes way too much delight in how this pregnancy has slowly sapped away my dignity (e.g. I can't buckle my seat belt with one hand, I have to heave myself out of bed by rolling over, etc.)

    No helpful advice, though, sorry.  The Zorbeez sounds like it might be your best bet. :)

    I'm not sure if it would totall solve the breakouts, but are you also moisturizing???? Sometimes that will make a difference.... just a thought!

    Although the Zorbeez probably wouldn't hurt! Stick out tongue

    No, but I snore like a chainsaw, therefore my husband has to go out to the couch. Big Smile If Zorbeez doesn't work, maybe you'll have to do what I'm doing...live with it until LO comes...

    Speaking of Shamwow/Zorbeez - have you ever seen this parody on You Tube? Pretty funny...

    I've noticed this too in the past week or two - I was wondering what was up - good to know I'm not the only one!

    Well, misery loves company, girls. I HATE it. The rest of my face is clear and my chin looks like I'm 14 again.

    I'll try the moisturizer, though. It can't hurt!
