Pregnant after 35

Need Tips. Bumps/Acne. Byuck!

Hi ladies. My oldest daughter was hugging me today and goes, "Mom...you have all these red bumps on your neck!" Yes my dear....I do. I also have acne on my chest and back. The bumps on my neck (sides and back of neck) aren't acne so much as just weird, annoying...well...bumps! Anyone else experience this? I know it's not a hygiene thing...hormones are surely the culprit. But if anyone has a product of advice on how to at least TAME them (they seem to go away after I deliver)...I would be so thankful!!! HELP!!!! Oh....and I do have a few more skin tags than normal...but the bumps aren't tags. So strange I know!

Re: Need Tips. Bumps/Acne. Byuck!

  • I've had acne break outs all over the place during my pregnancy... and I was NEVER an acne prone person.

    It's only in the past 2 weeks that I've noticed it finally starting to subside. I'm hoping that means I'm going to deliver soon Smile

    Nothing cured it. I'd use whatever I could find and one area would clear and another area would break out... and because it wasn't limited to face (back, neck, jaw line, scalp, chest) there just was never any way to shut it down.

  • I also have weird red bumps that are sort of like acne and sort of not under my chin and along my jawline.  Oh so attractive!  The breakouts on my face have died down a bit, but those aren't going away.  I'm a little over 7 weeks.  The acne was one of the first signs that made me think I might be pregnant, because I haven't really had any acne problems since I was about 14!  I feel your pain.
