Acne

I've heard that a lot of women get acne when they are pregnant, is this true?? I've had a bad history with acne and have been on medication for it for a while now and it's nearly gone!! But I can't continue to take it while I am pregnant so I'm really scared it's gonna come back

I have never had problems with acne but now during this pregnancy i notice it on my chin the most. So it could actually help your skin get clearer. You never know.. Everybody is different!

I think the acne comes with pregnancy because I have acne all over my face and before my pregnancy acne was never a problem. but just think of it as being worth it once your baby is I'm your arms! (:

I had pretty bad acne growing up and during the summer I break out but since being pregnant I've only broke out on my chest not my face.
