My skin was always clear but lately seeing little pimples coming up. Im around 9 weeks now. Just curious if this is the pregnancy acne everyone talks about and when it usually starts.
Look, those pregnancy hormones start acting up early, so acne usually kicks in around the 6th or 7th week. Don't go popping pills or using strong chemical creams. Just keep your face clean with a mild face wash and let your body adjust.
For me, it started right around week 7 of my first trimester. My face suddenly broke out so badly, and I am still struggling with it in my second trimester. Did anyone else face this, and does it go away after delivery?
It typically starts in the first trimester, around week 6, when the progesterone hormone spikes and makes your skin produce more oil. It's super common! Just use basic, safe moisturizers and avoid harsh treatments. It usually clears up on its own.
I am in my 8th week now and just started seeing tiny bumps on my forehead. Is this how it starts? I hope it doesn't get worse, what safe creams are you guys using?
Mine started very early, around week 5, because of all the hormonal changes. While it's annoying, try to see it as a sign that your hormones are working hard to support the baby. Take care of yourself gently and avoid any harsh skincare products.
