Baby acne!

So my beautiful son has the worst baby acne. I don't know what to do. Does anyone have trips? 

Re: Baby acne!

  • We were told by the PA to put coconut oil on it with DD. As long as I keep it up it seems to really make a difference. I just try to keep her skin clean with water and then put the coconut oil on once or twice a day.

  • Ceraphil for normal to dry skin face wash worked for us. 
  • You're really are supposed to leave it alone. My daughter had it really bad. I would wash it with a warm washcloth in the mornings and at night and sometimes put a&d ointment on it. Hers cleared up in just a couple weeks! But don't put lotions or anything on it because that could make it worse. 
  • My DD had baby acne and her doctor told me to just wash with water, no soap. Also, to apply hydrocortisone cream. It cleared up in about a week. GL!
  • My babe had it so bad, like so bad. We tried the cetaphil gentle cleanser but honestly just let it pas on its own, nothing really worked except patience. Keep it clean with washcloth morning and night and use cetaphil if u want. Which my friend swore by
  • What's the PPs said.  We cleaned with water, and it took about a month to clear up.  Also, the detergent we were using seemed to be a factor asnwell, as it cleared up quickly once we switched.
