Not really 'health'...baby acne/milk spots

DD is 3 wks almost 4wks. She has had what might generously be called milk spots (but more accurately be termed full on baby acne, red spots with yellowy/white heads) all over her face for at least the last 2 weeks. She also now has the spots on her chest and scalp.

I know they are supposed to clear up on their own...but when might this happen? And is there anything I can do to help it along?

( not a pfb...psb! DS was spot-free)

My ds2 had this and I got quite upset about it and took him to the doctors. He said it would clear up and it did after about 2 weeks, so hopefully it should for your DD soon.
