I'm Currently Feeling:  | Acne
I'm just windering if anyone else has experience getting acne or rather an increase in pimples since becoming pregnant?
I noticed that I got break outs around my chin. It's so horrible |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | When I was pregnant my face went CRAZY! It was awful I didn't even want to walk out of the house because I was so embarassed. Since having my miscarriage most of it has went away but you can still see the little red places where they were. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I'm sorry for your loss. I can't imagine what it would be like. However, thank-you for your reply. Good to know that im not the only one who is getting/ has got acne from pregnancy. Whatever happened to that glow? |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I have. My face used to break out occasionally. Just small areas, and small breakouts though. Usually around my chin/hair line. But now I get huge breakouts, all over my face. Especially in the middle of my cheeks. Hopefully it will clear up in a few weeks after I give birth..
I have been using Proactiv.. it doesn't even phase it though.  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Since stopping the pill, my skin has got worse and worse, but it wasnīt too bad and I had it under control and could cover the odd breakout with make up. Since getting pregnant, my skin has been really bad though. It wouldnīt be so bad if they were just little yellowheads that I could squeeze out, stick some stuff on and let them dry out......but no....they are red and bumpy and donīt seem to amount to much, except to be painful and unsightly.
Since hitting the 2nd trimester, they seemt to be getting better....still waiting for the lovely "glowing" phase though!! | | | | Status: Offline
