Post-partum acne

2017-07-09 12:39:26
My baby is 10 weeks old and I am breastfeeding(not sure if that makes a difference with the hormones) and my acne is worse than when I was pregnant. It's mostly hard, small flesh-colored bumps and blackheads instead of red or irritated pimples. Only an occasional whitehead. It's not painful or anything, but asthetically it's very frustrating
