newborn acne?!

does this look like just newborn acne or something else like cmpa, just based on the rash alone? i feel like i’ve had a misdiagnosis maybe of suspected cmpa and baby hates the new formula :(

I've got CMPA and it's extremely uncomfortable and often painful. Is she screaming during and after feeds? Does she trump and is it eggy smelling?

TBH I think it just looks like baby acne Wink

she does cry a little after feeding and arches her back, but i think this is reflux as she is grunty and sounds like a goat as the acid must be burning her throat. she does also have a lot of gas but i wouldn’t call it eggy smelling

Ok if the GP suspects CMPA do the symptoms sound anything like this?
