A member asked:
Newborn was put on new formula. her face is covered with what looks with zits or red dots all over. what do i do?

Unlikely the formula: Baby acne is a common event that reflects hormones transferred during the pregnancy. While the baby is floating in moisture, the skin is will not respond, but within weeks of birth they break out for many weeks before the hormone levels begin to drop ; the acne disappears. Keeping the skin clean ; avoiding irritating soaps helps. Food reactions effect the whole body.
