Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acne-before-bfp#post-2670467 Tue, 27 Dec 2016 10:32:51 +0000 dominobee 2670467@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I guess the other follow-up question would be can you implant at 4DPO? Usually it's 6-8, right? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acne-before-bfp#post-2670465 Tue, 27 Dec 2016 10:29:38 +0000 dominobee 2670465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetiePie: I did not get treatment of any kind, just testing that showed my husband and I are both healthy and fertile. Which has made 20 cycles of TTC sort of excruciating!! We have no idea what's wrong! If I don't get pregnant this cycle I am going on Clomid next cycle. He wanted us to wait four cycles after an HSG to see if that stimulated egg production/release. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acne-before-bfp#post-2670463 Tue, 27 Dec 2016 10:26:51 +0000 rattles 2670463@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ValentineMommy: my first two were girls and my mom posited that maybe this one was a boy, ha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acne-before-bfp#post-2670462 Tue, 27 Dec 2016 10:26:25 +0000 SweetiePie 2670462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hi! I remember a while back you had asked about questions to ask your RE at the first consult. Did you ever end up undergoing any treatment? Asking because that can definitely impact your skin, even months later (for me at least). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acne-before-bfp#post-2670460 Tue, 27 Dec 2016 10:25:49 +0000 ValentineMommy 2670460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't with my first two (boys), but I did with this one (girl)! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acne-before-bfp#post-2670458 Tue, 27 Dec 2016 10:25:03 +0000 rattles 2670458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't with my first two, but that was in retrospect my biggest sign with this pregnancy. My skin was atrocious (really greasy, lots of break outs) around what turned out to be implantation. Fingers crossed for you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acne-before-bfp#post-2670454 Tue, 27 Dec 2016 10:20:22 +0000 dominobee 2670454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Did anyone have acne or skin changes ahead of their BFP?</p> <p>I woke up on 4 DPO and my skin had seemingly changed overnight. I usually have very smooth skin - I rarely got pimples even as a teen - and now it seems like every pore on my face has turned into a bump. I've also got a few pimples - including one on my earlobe!!</p> <p>I know this would be very early for implantation but I can't think of anything else that would change my skin so drastically in such a short period of time. I do sometimes get stress-related pimples but those would be one or two big ones. This is a different kind of skin change that seems to be the overall quality of my skin. I haven't changed my soap, shampoo, detergent or anything that would cause skin irritation.</p> <p>AF isn't due until Jan. 3, 4 or 5 (my cycle ranges from 26-28 days) so I can't test yet. Instead, I'm obsessively researching acne before BFP! Would love to hear your experience. </p>
