Postpartum skin

Hi all, just looking for some advice. I'm now 10 weeks postpartum with our second daughter.

With our first I had no skin issues following birth. However this time around I seem to have come out with acne. I have never ever had acne even back as a teenager.

How long does this last and any tips for clearing it?

Thank you

Mine was bloody awful. Have you been to the GP? They can offer you either a topical lotion or antibiotics.

If you are BFing, the BFN drugs in BM service can advice you if things are safe, although they might not be their proper name, I seem to always get it wrong.
