My ds had them but I can't remember! I want to have some photos taken of my ravishing dd...but she's covered in acne! She's four weeks old today and I wondered when she would be restored to her normal state of perfection

my ds had really bad baby acne and I can't remember when it cleared up either! he's only 9 months so I must have the worst memory ever.

ds2 is 16 weeks and still really spotty and he's also got awful cradle cap, poor lad. But he's got huge bright blue eyes and the best ever gummy smile and I couldn't love him any more. Awwwww!

Oh dear! Looks like I might be postponing that photo-session for a while...

DS, born with a velvety complexion, was suddenly covered with pimples around 3 wks. He's still dry and flaky, but the eww zitty bits all went quite quickly. In a certain light, he looks fairly normal now. (He's 6 wks.)
Hope things are going well for you both.

at 'in a certain light' - I bet he's gorgeous! I hope dd's skin is back to normal in a couple of weeks. She's awfully spotty.
