My skin has been terrible since DS was born! Help?

My skin was nice and clear before pregnancy and during pregnancy. But within a week of DS birth, I started breaking out and still am. Everything from small barely visible bumps to large pimples even on my neck at times(gross!!!). Anyone else? Did you find any products that worked?

    My skin went crazy during pregnancy - super dry with ugly rough patches, almost like psoriasis or eczema, and I broke out like crazy.  I actually started using Argan Oil (I was up late watching too much QVC and stumbled on Josie Maran but I think you can get it anywhere) and it cleared up my dryness/rough patches within a few days but didn't make me too oily.  I don't have huge breakout problems now but I know I have sensitive skin so if I use the wrong products I can have a breakout or a rash.  I stick to my argan oil or Philosophy's "when hope is not enough" firming cream.  And I only use Aveeno or Neutrogena cleansing products since they've never caused me to breakout.  For the large pimples I recommend something with salicylic acid - either the Neutrogena face wipes in the pink wrapping or the Aveeno Clear are what I like.  But you might have to do your own trial and error.

    Every since my daughter was born I have had a lot of dry patches on my face as well. Mostly around and on my nose and in between my eyebrows! I have been putting a lil aquafor on  the area each morning and it seem s to help. My acne has actually gone away every since I got pregnant! Hope it stays that way :)
