    First of all, did anyone get acne PP? I have never had acne, but for the past 2 months I look like a 14 year old boy. I am breastfeeding so I don't know if my hormones are just nuts. I am going to start on the mini pill next cycle, did that help anyone? I also got AcneFree and am hoping to get a little improvement!

    Does anyone know where to find organic applesauce? I let my girls try my natural applesauce and they love it so I want to get them some of their own, but I only like to have them eat organic foods from the "dirty dozen" list.

    Finally... I recently split up my girls during sleepy time. I only have one crib so I moved the better sleeper to the PNP. Is there anything wrong with letting her sleep in there for an extended period of time? She doesn't sleep in the bassinet portion.

    TIA ladies!

    I think I can answer all your questions.

    First, I didn't get post-partnum acne, but the lovely acne I developed when I got pregnant with my boys didn't disappear after I gave birth. Pro-Active has helped a lot. I started it about a month ago and I defintely have a lot less breakouts. I think that the fact that I'm still nursing has my hormones still out of whack.

    I don't know where you live, but here in NJ, I can get organic applesauce in the grocery store in large jars. It's with the other organic food and not the regular applesauce.

    I don't think there's anything wrong with the PNP, but if you think she's uncomfortable at all I know that you can buy a mattress for it to make it softer. My cousin had a surprise third baby within a year of her second and the youngest slept in the PNP for two years.

    That makes sense! I swear, I have the worst case of baby brain ever. Be rational Emily! haha

    I'm pretty sure my last rational thought was in 2004 before I had my first child. I read somewhere a long time ago that it takes something like a year after you stop nursing to get your mind back. I really hope that's true. :laughing:

    I have no acne experience but have a lot of friends who've raved about Proactive.

    Sounds like the organic applesauce issue has been solved. :good:

    I don't see any problem with her sleeping in the PNP as long as she's happy & sleeping well in there. Whatever works!
