38 weeks pregnant with PUPPS and feeling low

Rachael

I started to get an itchy rash at around 36 weeks pregnant. Went and got my bloods done and they came back clear. Since then the rash has spread everywhere and I’m in so much pain. Doctors think it’s PUPPS.

This is just my hand! Sorry for TMI but wanted to show you what it’s like. I really wanted to enjoy the last few weeks of my pregnancy as I’ve been so lucky to have it easy up till now.

I’m literally going out of my mind with the pain and itching, I don’t know how I’m going to give birth like this and last another 2-3 weeks!

Has anyone had this before or can give any advice? I’ve been prescribed emollient cream, a mild steroid and some antihistamines. Nothing seems to be working though.
