How embarrassing

Post baby I started getting horrible acne... it's been really upsetting. It's of course all hormonal and I was waiting to be able to go on BC again to level it out and clear it up... I just started about 10 days ago so I am waiting for it to still do it's magic. 

Today I get on line at the grocery store and their is a mom and little boy in front of me (probably like 6). The boy says to his mom "What's wrong with her face?".... The mom said "That's not nice". But, I heard it and it brought tears to my eyes. I had to change lines then got in my car and cried more :o(

  • I'm so sorry! I never had acne at all until I turned 26. Wtf, right? It improved after trying lots of things and then, at 29, it cleared a lot with pregnancy. At 5 weeks PP I've gotten a zit here or there but nothing like it was at 26. I totally understand and try not to obsess over it too much. It will get better!
  • Sorry that happened! :( I've been getting a little acne on my chest. That hasn't happened since my freshman year in high school!

  • I'm covered, I've always had problems with acne though. I had a little kid say something to me along those lines when I was in high school. I know it hurt, but just remember little kids don't know that they are saying something hurtful. They are just curious. So sorry, hopefully it will clear up soon!
  • Well I am so glad this got brought up! I have weird bumps, like the baby acne, all over my stomach, arms & back! It's so bad I don't wanna wear tank tops! Fucking hormones!!
  • All over my arms too, perfect timing for summer right ;( I'm so sorry this happened, but it will pass! Have you tried coconut oil on your skin? Has worked well for keeping my face clear all through my pregnancy and now.

    If it makes you feel better, my hormones have given me 2 cold sores in 1 week. Heartbreaking. I can't even kiss my kids. Stupid hormones. :((
