My neck broke out so badly in my first trimester. i went to get a facial and they told me it looked totally hormonal and there was nothing i could really do about it. It cleared up at around week 15....

I would talk to your doc about any over the counter medications you might be able to use. Also, I would try to limit the amount of make-up you use, and just try not to touch it....

yep, normal for your skin to be all over the place. i would go from glowing, clear skin one month to complete acne the next. it's the hormones...

Re: Is this normal?

Unfortunately, this is one of those lovely PG symptoms that some women experience. I never had breakouts in my life and was SO upset over the way my face looked through the 1st trimester that I felt embarrassed. I am now 16w and it has gotten better, but not 100% clear yet. All I can say is cleanse the hell out of it! Wash and treat often if you can and just wait it out. Sorry that you are stuck with this, but it is completely normal.

Its likely PG...

Your hormones are completely going nutty and break outs are one of the symptoms of it.
