Hey I was wondering if anyone out there gets acne in strange places now that they are pregnant. I get it on my chest and back now and not to mention all on my face... I also get dark spots here and there. Anyone?

I don't get it in weird places but I have been breaking out bad on my face and my scalp is really dry. I have been having to use head and shoulders to stop the itchy skin.
