Bit embarrasing, but for the past few months i've developed spots on my chest and back. And i dont know what to do to get rid of them

My face is clear-ish, but my back and chest :eek:

I have been using this exfoliating scrub, but it only seems to make them smoother lol. And OH said i shouldn't use it as he only uses water and his skin is clear :rolleyes:

Any Ideas on what i can use to get rid of them? :o

gill_81uk

no ideas EA but would love to hear any that anyone has got as my skin is awful!! Getting so many spots on face and a few on neck as well. It's the worst my skin has ever been

Sorry EA i have no idea but i agree with your OH though i know everyone is different.

I once bought a face scrub and i started getting spots after that, had only ever had the odd one when it was time of month before when i only used water.
It was as if the scrub had left my skin exposed to the daily crap, opened my pores and made me get more spots lol. So i stopped using it and went back to just water and rarely get spots.

Someone has emailed me asking if i'll take cheque or PO for eBay. Can't be bothered with going to the bank, prefer Paypal but don't want to discourage bidders and it saves Paypal fees i suppose. Hmmmph.

Someone asked me that on ebay, but they had no feedback and literally joined the day before so i said no lol.
You could say no as your heavily pregnant and do not leave the house alot to go the bank to cash it in? Play on the pregnany essentially lol.

Yeah OH says that by using scrubs it leaves your skin open to spots, etc. But i find if i dont use any sort of exfoliator or face wash my skin goes all weird and oily
I've been using just water recently with a flannel on my face and its been ok for a few days, sometimes use a baby wipe if im feeling very lazy

EA - I'm vaguely aware of Blue but not having ever had cause to watch it had never given gender a thought. With regards to spots, my face has been lovely and clear the past few months but my chest (specifically about the clevage area!) has gotten spotty, had just put it dowen to sweating and the bio oil have been using.

jha - I feel you are stalking me know, lol, only joking as requested one bump pic..


kindof - agree with the girls, dont beat your self up over one ciggie xx Oh and your brother needs a kick up the bum, you need to teach him not to mess with pg ladies hehe.

beenie - both bump and bum look good to me

redmel - glad your mum showed up in time, shame about the rushed appointment tho.

taken yesterday at exactly 25 weeks, not my best look but shows bump off well

aless - your ebay buys sound good to me, I paid £51 for my gliding chair and stool.

lauz - any update on the MW appt? Someone at your end needs a good shove with a sharp pokey thing!

Gemma - I was sad to hear about Busters passing too, poor Paul x

Always - ya fur ball seems to be better now so should be ok tonight, thanks xx

Nikkit - yeay for scan pic and bubs being all good

Gillby - I thought what I was feeling at first was gas, lil bit like a rumbley tumy, that was some where about 16 weeks it was mw who told me that would be bubs, first felt her proper kick at 19+6 tho.

Back from visit to IL's, was handed a large bag of baby clothes, from MILs work friend, some really nice stuff in there and a mix of neutral and pink, some of it brand new too. Theres a mix from boots, next, mothercare, george and tesco and there is even a winie the pooh sleeping bag and swddling wrap too. Really pleased with it and apparently there is more to come

The NHS is funny isn't it... I had my 16 week midwife appointment. She measures my BP and it was high, so she phones the hospital to get me checked out, realises it's too early for hospital to bother with me, so gets me to wait around the surgery and see a GP "to get me some medication". So one minute there's all this panic, the next she's ushering me out the door, happy to have pawned me off on a gp, and tells me, see you at 28 weeks - which is in february!! I feel soooo well looked after.

The gp measured my bp as normal an hour later and neither of them could tell me why I keep seeing funny lights and getting headaches.

During my last pregnancy I had gallstone attacks once a week and not a single health professional picked up on it. I wonder what's wrong with me this time :rolleyes::cool:

OMG! It's what time?? Bed bed bed bed NOW woman!
