This rash is the worst thing ever...i literally wanna peel my skin off with a knife just to relieve the itch! Does anyone else have this or has had this during your pregnancy??..my due date is monday and im trying to walk my butt off just to help speed up this labor process..i almost wanna asked to be induced next week if he is still not here! Is that bad??

    Its a rash that you get during the last trimester of pregnancy...its almost like a bad case of poison ivy. Little bumps all in patches that itch like crazy..on ur arms..legs..tummy and back. There is no cure..jus goes away after labor

    Thnx!..doc gave me a perscription for benydryl which will make me drowsy..and all it does is help me sleep thru the itchyness. I stopped taking it..i rub on caladryl lotion every hour...its so annoying

    Yes i have it BAD! I am 32 weeks and started getting it at 31. It itches like crazy! I have it all over my back, legs arms and tops of my feet. My doc gave me a steroid shot. It helped a little. But i use gold bond anti itch cream. And take a benadryl at night to help me sleep. I understand the pain and all the itchyness. I hope you deliver soon.

    Me and my sister both had it. Unfortunately I didnt find anything to help, but my sister did. They are called dandelion pills. They are sold at GNC. Also grandpas old pine tar soap helped her.
