Sounds like baby acne. It is normal and a result of moms hormones coming in contact with him during delivery. They usually clear up in a few weeks. I was told not to wash with anything but clear water, and not to put lotions on it, becuase it could make them worse. Tey usually just clear up on their own! Congratulations on your new son!

my little girl had this problem too. it was all i could do not to pick at them to get them to pop (i've always picked at my own and if my dh gets one i will pick at his until he yells at me lol). she's now 6 weeks old and they're almost completely gone, thank goodness. i didn't really do anything to them at all, it just takes time.

Wash his face with warm water daily - it'll clear up; it's a result of the hormones that were in your body, and completely normal. Just don't pick! (Shannon, I do that, too!)
