Spotty skin after giving birth

I gave birth to my daughter 4 momths ago,my skin has been terrible since she was a few weeks old,really spotty around my cheeks,jaw and chin,and i have lots of blackheads and open pores too,make up wont even cover it.

She is my 5th baby and i had them all close together,oldest is 6,so i have had 5 years of lovely glowy clear pregnancy skin and now this!

I have ditched the stuff i was using (no7 cleanser,toner and moisterizer)and have just started using coconut oil as a moisterizer instead,but its not helping much.

Any ideas?

You need to eat something healthy for your internals, than to deal with the skin outbreaks. Are you back to a regular nice diet ? e.g. good veg, meat, no caffeine, alcohol etc.

You might want to use some more natural spot treatments like witch hazel or other to help it go down. But I would target the food intake more. Just eat more nutrient-high food, and more vitamins.
