Any one else have PUPPS rash?

Question

Currently 3am and haven’t slept. The itching is unbearable. Started last week on my belly and has now spread to hands/arms as well as my feet/ankles. Anyone who has or has had this in the past have tips? 
Currently 33w3d. So far my doctor has told me to take a daily allergy pill. Use anti itch Aveeno lotion. Oatmeal baths. Obviously try to refrain from itching. But when your skin is on fire it’s not easy. Hoping to get back in with my doctor first thing tomorrow (Monday) morning since it has gotten worse in the past week. 
Open to any and all suggestions. 
Sincerely,
One embarrassed, tired, itchy, uncomfortable pregnant lady ☹️

Answer

I had this about 3 weeks after my first was born. It really is terrible ! I used witch hazel. Put it on a cool wash cloth and put it in my body. Seemed to clear up. I did it about 3-4 times a day

Answer

Here I thought I’ve had a heat rash but it’s started to spread to other areas on my body that made no sense. I’ve never heard of this before and I’m 100% positive this is what I have. Mind blown. Lol but very very itchy 😭😭

Answer

I’ve had it since the first trimester. It was only on my stomach and it has gone away after taking Zyrtec everyday.

Answer

Yes me too! For anyone else suffering, if you’re near a Trader Joe’s you have to go get their cucumber avocado body butter. I tried absolutely everything, allergy meds, Benadryl, anti itch cream, oatmeal baths and the body butter cleared my belly up and my arms up for the most part! It sounds so silly but hopefully it will help some of you like it helped me!! ❤️❤️ I just picked up a second jar today!

Answer

I had it my last pregnancy. The only thing that would give me any sort of relief (and that was barely any relief) was Grandpa’s Pine Tar Soap.

Answer

I have this as well. My doctor recommended calamine lotion. I’ve found it has really helped, the rash doesn’t look as angry anymore and it hasn’t been driving me as crazy but you have to stay consistent with it.

Answer

I have got PUPP rash too :( its been a week I’m currently almost 33w, it spread on my belly around stretch marks first then spread all over my body and it’s getting worse day by day. I have never heard about Pupp rash before. I can feel your pain, couldn’t slept since few days now. My dr gave me a cream (betaderm 0.05%) but its not working I’m so helpless and cry at night cause it itch all over like hell 😭 I don’t want to take oral medicine trying to keep myself hydrated and taking cold showers every now and then helps to sooth my skin for a while but it’s not helping enough 😭
