Hi all,
Not sure if this is the right section for this! My DD (7 weeks tomorrow) had lovely skin until she hit just short of 6 weeks. Every day she is waking up with more and more spots on her face, and I've noticed this morning that they are now in on her ears and scalp. It looks horrible! I've noticed she is constantly rubbing her face quite aggressively (I'm wondering if it's itchy?) and we've had to put scratch mitts on her to stop her scratching herself. She screams if swaddles, so we can't stop her from doing this unless we hold her arms. She's also having trouble with reflux and wind, and I just feel bad she's so uncomfortable everywhere. We haven't changed our detergent, and we aren't using products in the bath. I have had a look online, but lots of posts I see say that their DC got baby acne earlier, and that it cleared up by 6 weeks. Is there anything I can do to help? I know I shouldn't be bothered by it, but her constant face rubbing is making me wonder whether it is bothering her.
