My 8 days old cherub's cheeks are very rough. At first I thought it was a heat rash, but now wondering if it is baby acne. It looks like small bumps that are sometimes red and irritated looking, and other times it looks very clear, but the roughness is still there.

I had the same problem with my little one. Apply a little breast milk as lotion to his skin at every feed. The irritation and redness as well as itching will be gone in a day. The actual pimples will be gone in 2.
