Darn you 1st tri breakouts! (and gender question)

I only have two pimples one that's almost gone and one new one, but they are just so red...

I don't remember breaking out at all with DS though, unless I just forgot about it.  So maybe another girl?

Anyone else with with previous pregnancies breakout with one sex, but not the other?

Last pregnancy my skin was fantastic. It was a girl DD. This time I'm breaking out and oily. We will see what sex it is.

I don't believe the wives tales though.

 I don't believe wives tales either.  I was just curious if the hormonal differences between carrying a boy versus a girl made people break out differently.  Sure it's not scientific, but sometimes it's interesting.

This, but opposite. I broke out like a mofo with DD, nada this time. Time will tell.

Last pregnancy: acne at least 10x worse than when I was a teenager

Result: girl

 

So far this pregnancy: 3 pimples all at the same time, shaping to be the same. (Normally I have no or almost invisible blemishes)

Awful acne last time and it was a boy. 

I bet this little poll ends up running about 50/50 :o)

Ok, but what are you doing about the breakouts, anything?  All my facial products have 2% salicylic acid so I haven't been using them.  Before my BFP I was using tea tree oil - anyone using this?  I'm not sure if it's really safe...probably fine but...?

This too -- icky breakouts with DS on face and back. This time my skin is smooth and gorgeous, not a flaw! Hoping this means it's a girl :)

First is a girl, no break out

Second and third are boys, no break outs

fourth a boy and for *me* I broke out as in a 2 or so zit gracing my face at all times until a few weeks into the second trimester.

My derm gave me topical erythromycin and my OB was fine with that.

Haha, I happen to be allergic to erythro. But that does remind me, I have some sort of Rx cream that my PCM said was ok. I forget what it's called...maybe Finacea? Hopefully I won't need it. Thanks!

This time, I am already breaking out.

Do people really believe that there is a difference between a boy pregnancy and a girl pregnancy?

 

This worries me.

Well, there is a difference between every pregnancy, so I suppose yes, in a sense? But not the sense you are implying. At least not for me!

With DS I broke out a little but mostly around my hairline.  This time, I broke out like I never have before, I had those big, painful zits all over my forehead and chin until about 14 weeks.  This one is a girl.
