Could my Prenatal Vitamins be contributing to my Acne?

First off, I know that its expected to have Acne during Pregnancy, and at 20, I've also been very prone to Acne since Puberty. But lately, its been just plain out of control. I do everything I'm supposed to, I shower every other day, sometimes I wash with a Gentle Facial Cleanser, and other times I just let the water clean it naturally. I drink plenty of water, I eat healthy, I get moderate exercise, and I'm also taking these Prenatal Vitamins called Pre-Care that my Doctor prescribed me. I'm wondering if these could possibly be making my acne worse? I understand that Acne is normal during pregnancy, but I just feel so ugly all the time and I don't even want to go out into public because even if I put some makeup on (which I wear very, very rarely) , my skin still looks like a mess, with dry spots and acne spots. What can I do differently and/or what am I doing wrong? Someone please give me some advice, I'm going nuts!!
If you are familiar with Pre-Care Prenatal Vitamins, please feel free to share with me some of your experiences with it; Positive and Negative!
Does Proactiv actually work? And is it safe to use during Pregnancy?

nope, sorry to say it, but its the hormones. with my boy i didnt have any skin troubles at all, with my girl i was a mess. it got way out of hand no matter what sort of wash or lotion etc. i used. it will go away after, as with so many other things in pregnancy. :)
