Pregnancy and pimples... and did you have a boy or girl?

[dee73]

Pimples for 1st trimester in both pregnancies, then cleared up by 14 weeks. Both boys...

[satya]

I'm expecting a boy (had an amnio) and I have never had better skin than what I have had throughout this pregnancy.

[SnowWhite]

When i found out i was pregnant up till about 20weeks I had pimples galore. all over my face and also sweat pimples all over my back... and I had a girl.

[Neatisme]

I was perfectly pimple free all throughout my pregnancy..............and I had a boy!!

[Willow]

1st prg with my DD had heaps of pimples, mainly on my chest!

2nd prg (we lost this baby at 12 wks so don't know the sex, but I feel it was a girl) same deal - in fact, that's how I knew I was prg, the pimples on my chest!

3rd prg - not a single pimple the whole 9 months...you guessed it, a boy!

[Mummatotwo!]

1st pregnancy - lotsa pimples later in the pregnancy (but i ate alot of crap and gained 30 kilos) was a boy

2nd pregnancy - lotsa pimples early in the pregnancy, and i have a feeling its a girl.

I broke out around the 6 week mark all over my neck and back...cleared up around the 7 month mark and I had a boy!!

[Sammiejane]

I had NOT ONE pimple through out my whole pg (i usually have one on the go all the time) and had a girl.
I found that my skin was the best that it had ever been.
I also stopped sweating (but it is back now!!!!)
HTH

Normal AF type breakouts for me at the start, but nothing else since and I'm having a girl...

Depends on your skin care regime too (I'm a beauty therapist but I don't work in the field anymore but i'm trained!)

I didnt have pimples with either of my pregnancy's and I had a boy first time and a girl second. Dont know how much truth is in that saying.

[Mollygirl]

HI

some pimples with baby #1 - boy
hardly any with # 2 - girl

goodluck

[Beach Mama]

I had none with Isabelle! In fact my skin was the best it has ever been! This time around I have had a couple but still early days yet so who knows!!
Sorry to throw another spanner in your theory!

[MummyDuck]

I've had terrible skin since about 6 weeks. I get the occassional blind pimple on my cheek but mostly I have 'bumps' all on my forehead and nasty little ones with heads along my jawline (only below my ears) and around my nose. I am having a girl!!! Hows the theory going so far...... looks pretty even to me - no huge theory yet I always wanted to know if the Draino thing was true..... not just the boy/girl thing but can draino really turn a different colour

Mmm weird,my 1st bub i got pimples and lots of them and i NEVER get them and i had a girl.
With all 4 of my boys NO pimples but that brown pigmentation all on my face Grr not cool went after they were born tho thank god.
Now with this bub ive been told 4 times im having a girl and i have both but ive only just started getting the pimples but the brown pigmentation is pretty bad this time

[bugalug]

hmmm very interesting.....i will continue to read and decide what i'm having! hehe

[ShootingStar]

Its actually been the opposite with me.. with DS, i wasnt overly populated with pimples lol but i did get a few. This bubs (girl) i hardly get any, if any!
