Looking for Advice on Sensitive Baby Skin

My son is almost 11 months old. He has SUUPPPER sensitive skin. He has had these pimples/blackheads on his cheek since he was about 5 months old, they WILL not go away.

Breast Infection/Sore nipples...how Do I Treat???

Hi ladies, this is my second child I'm nursing, and I had problems with the first one, but I honestly don't remember being able to treat them successfully. I have some kind of infection....breast is very tender, red red sore nipples....hurts like hell every time baby latches. I know they say to continue nursing no matter what, but is there anything I can do for the pain relief, or to treat it? Do I need a doctor/ob/lactation consultant? I feel truly miserable...and I'm stuck at home with 2 little ones and no relief. Any suggestions...
