My darling had som2 3 boils over her face in the 2 weeks of life & the dr said it is normal/ Now it is all over her cheeks, neck, head, back etc. I am so worried NOw. IS something that i am eating is the culprit? As per indian tradition i have some laddu my mom had prepared & i take HIrabor in morning which is ayurvedic & seems to lossen the back ache. Except these 2 items there is nothing different that i am eating. The dr said it is just baby acne & will go by 4 month but i am so worried her skin is getting bad day by day..... Pls help if anyone has any idea about this!!

There is Khus Khus & almonds in the laddus.... Can it be causing it? Swati replied. Niki, your diet may not be the reason but you must drink lots of water to cool down your own system because all this laddus and all are heaty stuff!

Any way the acne in babies is common and it is their way of getting adjusted to the world! Just leave her baby and we'll worry about your li'l angel's complexion when she is like 15-16 years old! Don't worry she'll be just fine!

Very soon there will be colour changes and all these are all part of growing accustomed to the outside world so don't worry over your diet just now that is more important to you. I have many friend who refused to eat the proper diet after delivery and today they are suffering with avast range of problems even thyroid problems so right now you concentrate on your health - That is also important becos a healthy you will be able to take better care of your little one!
