So done with the acne...

My face just feels gross. And it pretty much has since my BFP. Oily and more breakouts than I've ever had in my life. Ugh.

Anyone else dealing with this? Please tell me it ends soon!

    Ugh, me.  I'm getting a new zit every other day and my skin is staying red even after one is long gone.  I hope it gets better soon.

    I am getting big ones!  I haven't gotten this many big zits since high school.  A lot of the are in my hairline and behind my ears.  Its horrible.  So much for "glowing"!  :)

    I totally agree!! With DD I had wicked morning sickness and nothing else, with this pregnancy I'm so tired and have major acne, it is so bad, it's all on my back, chest, face and even my legs. I so hope this ends soon. Tongue Tied

    I've always had "bad" acne on my face. But now, while pregnant it's ten times worse. I get the big red one that just hurt and throb. Plus I have them all over my shoulders now! Please make it stop!

    I currently have 7 close GF's that are also pregnant...yes, there are 8 of us pregnant at the same time (totally unplanned! lol). Try this! One of my girlfriends has a more expensive version from the dept. store. I'm trying to remember the name of it now, however, this one is exceptionally less expensive and works just as well!

    I keep saying I didn't get the pregnancy glow, I got the greasy hair and breakouts. More pimples now than when I was in high school. And I used to be able to go 2 days without washing my hair, now I need to wash it everyday.

    The same thing happened to me. I did a little online research and found a product that has been working great for me! Belli Skin Care makes specialty products for expecting mothers. Their Acne Cleansing Facial Wash Complexion Protection works wonders and is safe :)
