  Don't know about cradle cap, but I noticed bumps on my baby's chest while at the doctor yesterday and they look at them and said it was just the baby acne... so it can be other places than just the face

  My LO has baby acne on his face and back. I also noticed some dry skin on his ears - I don't think they're related though - but it all seems pretty normal baby skin stuff. My doc saw the acne on him and didn't even mention it.

  You didn't ask, but putting a little breast milk on baby acne spots clears it up for us. And now I wonder if it works for adult acne, too... haha

  I heard about the breast milk, I think I'll try it. Doc called n said it sounds like just acne, he said to bring her in tomorrow if it bothers me but since she's not having any other issues with it I'll just keep my eye in it. Thanks for listening and you

  Does anyone know when the baby acne will go away? My daughter never had it,but E has it all around his nose, chin, and temples.

  My DD is also 6 weeks old, and has a similar sounding rash.  It started out kinda bumpy and red, then got really dry and flaky.  Face, ears, and now across her collarbone, too.  We were at the pedi earlier this week and she said it's an ecz
