month 2 tretinoin purge check-in - anyone else?

title says it. started tret 0.025 in feb. month 1 was fine, smug about it. month 2 my face decided to break out in places i've NEVER broken out. forehead, jawline, literally new spots. derm says normal, purge usually 6-10 wks, push through. anyone else in the trenches right now? this is grim.
