Pregnancy Info HOME

I have been using the Cetaphil line of products. They are very mild and were created for dry, sensitive skin. They have cleansers, lotions, and creams and are available over the counter. The gentle skin cleanser is great for babies, too! I have also developed acne since I got pregnant and I have been using a topical clindamycin that my Doctor said was safe to use.

hi girls I have been having skin problems too! I hate it, My face has never had problems with acne,dry skin or anything but now that I am pregnant I started getting dry skin and my face is braking out..I am freaked out! do you ladies know when it will go away?

Leslie, I don't know when it will go away but I would imagine that it would improve once your hormone levels stablize. I have acne, too, for the first time ever and I am using topical clinamycin along with the Cetaphil products. I work in ther Dermatology field and have been assured by both Derm's and my Ob/gyn that this is safe. Good luck to you! I hope that this goes away soon. I am 7 weeks - how about you?

3rd trimester and just started to get really red and dry skin. Don't know what's going on. Didn't have it 1st 6 months!!! What gives? Getting a facial tomorrow. Avoiding the sun as even so little as 2 minutes turn my face bright red all day. Talk about super sensitive. congrats on your pregnancies every1.
