Hi Shiawase, my baby is also having the same problem. Went to check with Doc, he said that it is due to her skin is adapting to air surrounding her. So her skin could be allergic to dust, the air or the dirt on our hands when we touch her. So the best way to reduce it is to keep her face clean meaning we should'nt touch her face with dirty hands and while bathing time, need to clean her face first before we proceed other parts of the body. Her bed too need to clear off dust.

hihi.. my baby is also having this problem. we did see the doc, and he gave us some cream to apply. other than that, we try to keep his face clean as much as possible, like using a nappy cloth to cover our arms/shoulders while carrying him, so that our skin and clothes don't come into contact with his skin, or washing our hands before carrying him. We also try to limit touching him with our own face or kissing him during this time. so far, it seems to be helping, as he's starting to shed skin.

My baby had this problem too when he's around 3 weeks old but doctor said it's due to hormones. The pimples disappeared when he's around 5 weeks old. There's no need to worry :blaugh:
