Baby Acne

Over the past few days, Jasmine suddenly developed small tiny little bumps all over her face. It resembles pimples. She doesn't seem to be bothered by the dots at all and they aren't itchy. But we took Jasmine into the docs office to take a look anyways. Jasmine was diagnosed as having baby acne.

Apparently about 20% of all babies get it and the condition goes away on its own. Some docs prescribe hydrocorisone cream and some docs just leave it alone. We used the cream on Jasmine and it cleared up her skin overnight. Cool stuff. We were told to use very little of it twice a day.
