DS is 12 weeks old, I havent b/f for quite a while now and my skin is a total diaster area. I've always been really lucky and had good skin, never any need for foundation or anything, it got very bad whle pg but I put up with it and hoped after I popped it would start to clear up...it hasn't and as shallow as this sounds I feel so miserable. Just want to put a paper bag over my head and dreading the odd xmas do I may attend.It's sore, spotty, little white heads, very inflamed....DS was worth every spot but god its getting me down...any advice?

Is it possible for you to get a facial? Maybe as a birth-or-christmas present to yourself? They will be able to steam or cleanse the little spots and help with general inflamed-ness. Also make sure you are eating well, and your health is as good as poss. I personally swear by Green Tea, garlic and vitamin B.

oh me too! i am sure it is hormone related!

are you taking multi vits for women? that is meant to help. Also are you drinking load of water - the heating everywhere dries the skin which makes it produce more oil etc

otherwise, you have my sympathy!
