花脸

We enjoyed 2 weeks of feather soft skin from River until baby acne invaded her face a few days ago. I was childishly hoping it's another difference vs. Baby April (April's skin has red dots and small red patches since birth, comes and goes throughout the first year). Not so lucky! The invasion is quite severe, both cheeks have 50% coverage of feverish redness with tiny white tops. All the pre-seniors at home started suspecting every single food that the MOM intake would have caused the invasion. Starting from cutting down ginger in cooking, stopped any seafood related ingredient to the most outstanding one - the peanut pork feet soup, which MOM consumed right before the outbreak. Could it be allergic reaction? Or the "hot" sit month dishes? What to feed the MOM (aka the milking COW) was the most discussed and debated topic under the roof until the MOM called up doctor's office for consultation, just to be told the simplest remedy - "DO NOTHING". It's caused by the mother's hormone in the breast milk, it may clear up itself in 3-4 months. Meanwhile, don't put any cream, just wash her face once a day. And the MOM even went so far to suspect the antibiotics that works on the MOM's skin(MOM also currently has acne because of the hormone) will help to clear River's face, nop, it would have no effect at all according to the nurse. ~无奈啊！
