It's ok, they're just milk bumps. Babies, even well washed ones get little bumps from milk drying on the skin. They go away in a couple of days. They may return temporarily but they're not a problem.

No worries, Baby acne is super common. Both of my babies got them and they went away within a couple of months.My 4 month old got them at about 1 and a half months and they went away at abour 2 and a half or 3 months. I know they look kind of gross, but I dont think that the pimples bother them. Just don;t try to pop them or they could get infected.The baby center web site has all sorts of answers for all sorts of questions. But really the pimples are really normal. Hope this helps:)

Sometimes babies get little pimple like spots from heat. What are you feeding her in the bottles at night? Some babies do not react well to things other than breastmilk. One thing that I found with my baby was that a lot of times I would get worried about something and it would be gone. If you have a well baby appointment, ask the doctor and you will get some educated input.

This is hormonal and is COMPLETELY normal for a newborn. Whatever you do, DO NOT pick at them, as baby's skin is sensitive and suseptible to infection. Just give it some time, wash baby's face with water only, and keep lotions off of baby's face. The pimples WILL go away, I PROMISE!!

Make sure this is not a rash-like allergic reaction. See a Dr. but don't panic pimples don't sound serious though unpleasant for parents to see., Here are some things to try..cut back on the formula and use more breast feeding to see if this reduces outbreak. Check her environment too. Sheets, pillows, blankets and all that she comes in contact with...what are you washing them in? What are you washing baby in? Wipes? Look for chemicals and potential irritants to remove from her environment. If it gets worse...get to a Dr. post haste.

The pimples are most likely baby acne and are totally normal. Do nto try to treat them or you will dry out the baby's skin. Nothing to worry about at all. Many babies get them

Alot of babies have this. It is can be caused by the moms hormones in the babies blood stream. These are the same hormones that make us break out as teenagers-So let them clear up on their own and do not do anything like pick at them or acne cream (babies skin is much too sensitive) Just wash her face gently with clean warm water and it will go away on its own.

When this happened with my son a month ago, the doctor told me it was due to the skin contact during breastfeeding. The baby's oil glands are starting to work and milk, oil, and oil from your body can get trapped in baby's pores. It is normal and will go away eventually.
