Ugh..so itchy!

I just need to whine for a minute. I am so itchy! I have had a rash over my entire body, head to toe, since last Thursday. It itches like crazy!

I went to the doctor on Monday and they ran some blood tests to see if they could figure out what it was (there's no environmental triggers that we can figure out), but nothing came up in those. The dr said to come back if the rash and itching doesn't go away, but unless I can get in late tomorrow afternoon, I might have to wait until next week to go back in since I'm leaving for AZ tomorrow night.

The worst part is that there aren't many things I can use to help with the itching since I'm pregnant. Crying

ok...whining over. Thanks for letting me vent.

  • You poor thing. :-(

    If I were you, I would use coconut oil. I swear it helps everything!  And, it's pregnancy safe.

  • Do you have PUPPS??  My neighbor had this and spent the last several weeks of her pregnancy with a total body rash!  I don't have any advice on what to use... maybe an oatmeal bath??
  • I'm itchy too-no rashes but definitely really frustrating.  Especially my boobs!  Haha.  Lovely side effects of pregnancy, right?

    Hope it goes away soon!

  • Are you having a sore throat?  Did they do a strep test?  You could have scarlet fever (based on what it looks like.)  Hope you feel better!
