This is my 3rd pregnancy, and for each, I`ve broke out worse than I ever did as a teenager. I`m not sure if you can get this where you are, but I`m using Biotherm Acnopur. You use it only when you feel a pimple coming on.

what i do is i try not to touch my face and i wash it every morning and night and it still doesn`t work so i`ve come to the conclusion that it is just part of the pregnancy

I`ve used Proactive Thoughout my whole pregnancy and even before. My skin has been amazing...just make sure you moisturize really good, when you first start using it you might find its a little drying. As long as you moisturize you`ll be fine! Hope this helps

i did with my 1st pregnancy i had real bad acne as a teenager too. this time im getting awful dry skin where my skin is all red expecilly around my chin. Looks like i have a red goatea. arrg..... Something that use to work when i was a teenager is egg whites. Sounds gross but try it worked for me. What you do is seperate the yoke from the egg. put it in a bowl and put the egg white on your face like it was a face mask. Your face will get so tight you wont be able to move it. When it gets really dry and tight wait a couple mins then wash it off. With a mild cleanser if you want. Once the face is dry try a light moisturizer. If you can stand the grossness of it. egg white can be a cheap face mask. If you try it msg me on the page and let me know how it went and if there any improvment.

Proactive, baby!! I used that when I was younger and I swear it`s a miracle! I put pure vitamin e on my face, I still get the odd pimple here and there, but I still love this stuff! You can get it at most pharmacies, but if you do get the stuff in the blue jar!

My skin broke out for about 3 weeks around the 11th week, now it`s back to normal. I use Cetaphil every night and it has been good to me. My dermatologist recommended it and it is available at the grocery store.

only thing that has worked for me and i know it`s going to sound really strange but wash your face with dove exfoliating white soap and then apply rubbing alcohol. I asked my doc and he looked at me funny but said whatever works. Ive also heard calamine lotion.. the stuff used for poison ivy, they have clear and pink if you get the clear you can wear it during the day. Doc also told me apply dial liquid soap to my face and leave for a half hour then wash off. Have not tryed anything except the rubbing alcohol thing but good luck. let me know if anything works

I think the best you can do is drink a bunch of water. I know that it won`t exactly cure acne but I do think that it helps the skin, in general. Sorry that you are having this side effect. I understand it`s common.
