Suddenly my forehead and chin are full of pimples and i never had this before, im in first trimester. Is this a pregnancy thing or just my skin acting up? Curious if others got it too.
Haan its very common, hormones do this. Both my pregnancies my skin acted up differently, one was oily one was dry. Just keep skincare simple and gentle, and check with doctor before using any acne cream because some are not safe in pregnancy.
Oh yes i felt so bad about my skin in the first few months, breakouts everywhere on my chin. I felt like i wasnt even glowing like everyone says. It did calm down by second trimester for me, so hang in there.
Yes totally normal, my tracker app even flagged it as a common symptom. Its the hormone surge. I stuck to a mild face wash and lots of water, avoided strong actives like retinol since those arent pregnancy safe.
Yes ma it happens, my skin broke out badly with my second one. My mother said it means a girl but thats just talk, it was a boy. Just keep it clean and dont use random creams without asking doctor.
Pregnancy glow? More like pregnancy oil factory for me lol. My teenage acne came back like an old friend. It went away after delivery, so dont panic, its just the hormones having fun.
