Little red spots on my baby face

[mummyyun]

Mummies, my boy is 3 weeks old. There are some little red spots like pimples appearing on his cheeks, forehead n eye area. Anyone know what are those? N what should I do?

Those are newborn rashes. Do not worry, is common & will go off by itself.

It's probably just baby acne. Some babies get red splotchy faces. Some get whiteheads on their nose, cheeks, and forehead. They are normal and will go away on their own. My sister would regularly wipe baby's face with a clean wash clothe.

Jasmine flower juice helps, my girl used to have saliva rash all over and my mum apply the juice twice a day by squeezing the flower directly and apply
Without cleaning it off. No worries ! Very fast goes off!

might be a little bit of eczema..

Ok, actually the most efficient way is bring your baby to the doctor. He/she will prescript a cream for baby to apply. And also make sure you use cotton balls soak in warm boiled water to clean his/her face or mouth ( after every feeding ) . Change the mittens once it's wet to prevent their saliva or left over milk to touch their face.
After the red spots disappear , I apply moisturer to his face everyday because the cream makes his skin very dry .
That's what the doctor ask me to do and it helps.

do the red spots appear throughout the day or only during specific times , like bedtime or noon?

could be heat rash or some allergic reactions to some clothing/fabrics?

As far as i encounter during my boys younger days, formula milk is usually heaty hence bb then to have such little pimples on their face. Try boiling some chinese barley for them . my sister's 1.5 month bb also have it and barley water helps

My 6 weeks son is having the same problem. We apply the cream given by the PD but the rashes gone and appear again. Can i use the "mo li hua juice" to apply on his face?

My 2 month old girl has red patchy rash on her chin. Can I use jasmine flower juice or apply vaseline on it?
