TEA TREE OIL Side Effects & Safety. Tea tree oil is POSSIBLY SAFE for most people when put on the skin, but it can cause skin irritation and swelling. In people with acne, it can sometimes cause skin dryness, itching, stinging, burning, and redness.
Baby acne is a very common skin rash which usually develops in the first few weeks after birth. It is more common in boy babies than girl babies. This rash confuses many parents who assume (and not unreasonably) that acne is something which affects adults, especially teenagers.
What will my newborn's poos be like? For the first couple of days after the birth, your baby will pass meconium. Meconium is greeny-black in colour, and has a sticky, tar-like texture. It is made up of mucus, amniotic fluid, and everything your baby has ingested while she was in your womb (uterus).
