I never did anything but wash with water and it went away fairly quickly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/facial-rash-6-week-old#post-2815254 Mon, 09 Apr 2018 14:23:00 +0000 SweetiePie 2815254@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, agree with others, it’s not a rash it’s baby acne. Your hormones are still in her body and causes breakouts in the first couple months. Ours happened around 4-6 weeks and lasted a couple of weeks. We just wiped with a warm wash cloth each night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/facial-rash-6-week-old#post-2815248 Mon, 09 Apr 2018 13:56:21 +0000 Mrsbells 2815248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CatchAFallingStar: my son had baby acne. Using the regular cerave helped a bit. Not the baby version. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/facial-rash-6-week-old#post-2815147 Mon, 09 Apr 2018 09:57:01 +0000 peachykeen 2815147@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Agree it looks like baby acne. Our ped recommended Cetaphil Baby Gentle Wash (which we're still using at 8.5 months because she has super sensitive skin). I doubt you're using baby wipes on her face at this young age, but that really irritates DD2's skin. If any of the spots start looking crusty, that's normal too and you can try using triple paste or another diaper ointment for that.</p> <p>It's annoying, but it does go away before too long. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/facial-rash-6-week-old#post-2815118 Sun, 08 Apr 2018 22:28:30 +0000 Jennibenni 2815118@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That is about the time both my kids had baby acne. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/facial-rash-6-week-old#post-2815110 Sun, 08 Apr 2018 21:21:42 +0000 KT326 2815110@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got baby acne around that time too. I think it lasted a couple weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/facial-rash-6-week-old#post-2815109 Sun, 08 Apr 2018 20:44:15 +0000 macintosh 2815109@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DS has hormonal baby acne from birth for a month or so. He would break out from skin to skin and it looked similar to that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/facial-rash-6-week-old#post-2815108 Sun, 08 Apr 2018 20:39:37 +0000 Miss Ariel 2815108@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is it baby acne? 6 weeks is around when it showed up for both dd and Ds. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/facial-rash-6-week-old#post-2815105 Sun, 08 Apr 2018 20:28:46 +0000 GoGoSnoGirl 2815105@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My baby had something similar around the same time. They said it could be baby eczema &amp; recommended Cetaphil Restoraderm lotion &amp; body wash &amp; we still use it on her regularly, though her initial outbreak cleared up in a couple weeks. For us we had many visitors &amp; it was also very hot around the time she developed it, so I thought it could be general skin irritation. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/facial-rash-6-week-old#post-2815103 Sun, 08 Apr 2018 20:24:15 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2815103@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD is 6 weeks. She started developing this rash a couple days ago. I thought it was caused by being in her Solly wrap and getting too warm against my skin. But, now I’m not sure. It’s spread to both cheeks, her ear and the back of her neck. Anyone have experience with this? I’m assuming it’s normal, but thought I’d ask. I’ll also be calling her pediatrician tomorrow.</p> <p>[attach=3657/18/p6w98g.600x450.169CFAB5-7E64-4F19-97C7-36E18A63C863.jpeg] </p>
