Acne

Why do I find it amazing that I never really had a acne problem my whole life, until I got pregnant. Then it never went away. Now I know how it feels to be the pink elephant in the room, or at least I feel like it. Before I got pregnant everyone would say how glowing and beautiful my skin was going to be. Eh, correction, it was a pizza waiting to come out. You never feel more conscience when you have acne and I feel so ugly. The good thing is most people knew what I looked like before this happened.
After the twins I went to a dermatologist and he gave me my magic pills. Which helped a lot and my skin cleared up. I finally stopped taking the pills and just used a topical. About a year off the pills and my skin is as bad as it has ever been. Back to the dermatologist I go. I will ask him to make it all go away before I leave his office, ya right, but it doesn't hurt to ask right?
I would post a before picture, but I think I am too embarrassed. Maybe after the magic dermatologist makes it all go away, I will post a before and after picture. Plus half of you see me everyday anyway.
