I am 14 weeks pregnant for the first time. I have been breaking out on my face since puberty, but never on my chin and jaw like now. Also, they are big, painful zits rather than the normal clogged pores that I had before. I have heard various theories on guessing the gender of the baby... but I am wondering who else expirienced this symptom, and what gender the baby was for you? (Im figuring its a boy / testosterone)

Actually, as pregnancy wives tales go...it would be a girl...Too much estrogen!
I had the same problem with my first pregnancy...it was a girl...and with my current pregnancy...also a girl! Didn't have it with my son though! Good news was, it started to clear up at about 20 weeks.
Good luck and congrats!

Dry and/or greasy skin due to poor oil composition of the skin. Thick greasy oils clog pores, lack of oil leads to dryness and irritation. You need thin oils to moisturize while dissolving and clearing gunk in your poors. Try fish oil or seafood. 2 tsp fish oil a day or 4 servings of seafood a week. Stick it out for at least 2 months; it will take a long time to replace all your oil. Any effect after 1-2 days is temporary or random; so even if it makes you break out a little at first, you haven't given it a full try yet.
In the short term you can wash and moisturize well, but that will only go so far. Plus excessive washing can be drying and excessive moisturizing can be clogging. Use a small amount of a light moisturizer, made with oil not jelly or grease. Often that means soybean oil or mineral oil. Mineral oil means mined from the ground. So soybean oil is usually better, though mineral oil won't cause too much harm. Clean with soap and water, not a harsh acne cleanser. Even then they only work so well. So you really need the seafood.
Antibiotics aren't really good for bacteria long term, they'll come back in force after. Short term they may help. After you get off them find some kefir with acidophilus listed first or 2nd to replace the friendly bacteria they destroyed. Studies show less illness when you have these bacteria, even outside the stomach in places such as the lungs and elsewhere. You want friendly bacteria to fill the void when the antibiotics stop, not harmful ones.
In the short term you might also try 100,000+ iu retinol vitamin A (a megadose, and too much for normal use) or one of the acne drugs that is similar to retinol vitamin A. It's some minor harm to your organs, but it helps against bacteria on your skin. At least it doesn't have the other long term drawbacks to your skin that antibiotics and many scrubs do.

I had the same problem...and I'm having a boy! I've never had a problem with acne until I got pregnant (I was in my second trimester when they started to appear). I would get them on my nose and on my chin and jawline...they were horrible! Big ones too, not just little pimples, but full on big red zits! Eventually they went away (I'd say around the time my third trimester started) and I haven't had one since. My friend is also having a boy and she has had really bad acne on her chin also, so...who knows! It might be right, or maybe just a coincidence!
Good luck and congrats!!! :) I'm sure you will be happy either way ;)

Nope, Im having a girl and I break out all over my chin and jawline. I also have 3 boys and I dont think I broke out as much with them. There is nothing that will tell you what you are having.

No, it is only an old wives tale. I broke out every where on my face with my daughter (it was worse on my chin) and I am all broke out again with this one too. It's just because of the hormones going crazy in your body, it's worse than going through puberty. Good Luck and try a good facial cleanser (2-3 times a day) and a facial toner to help out though.

It means "we need a break". It's not a code phrase for anything although he really should tell you WHY he wants a break, he owes you at least that. Also it means you're probably not going to get back together with him. You might but odds are against you. Talk to him, find out if he really just wants to break up completely. If so, do it because you don't want to be in emotional limbo, wondering if the "break" will end or not.
