What's wrong with me?! This breakout and blackish armpit thing happened not long after I became pregnant. I bathe everyday and I haven't changed anything in my routine. I'm asking my doctor Thursday but any input until then would be nice. Please help!

Question

Answer

Try different body soap and a different razor. Also, I have been breaking out like crazy because I sweat a lot more. It could be 40 and I'm wearing a jacket, freezing, yet my underarms sweat like crazy. It does get better a bit after baby arrives.

Answer

Actually that is Pupp. I saw my gyno today and I have little bumps on my chest. He told me that it is not just in later pregnancy, it can be earlier for some. However, it's more common in the first pregnancy. Well this is my third and I have never had it before. Mine is not that bad at all, just a handful of bumps, but they are itchy as hell. He said Benadryl doesn't work well, although you can still try it. Just another one of those wacky preggo symptoms.

Answer

Google pupp skin rash

Answer

Not sure what it is but try using aloe gel, the stuff for sunburns. It helps with inflammation and swelling. I use this on my face and it really helps! Also helps with the scarring too! Good luck!

Answer

It looks like folliculitus an infection of the follicles you can get it by using the same razor for a while and whilst pregnant your skin is very sensitive too , I'm sure an antibiotic or steroid type cream will clear it up though ... its definitely infection due to the yellow heads on the follicle x

Answer

Could be a heat rash or you could be allergic to your deo. I developed allergies I never had before  I was pregnant. After I delivered they suddenly disappeared.

Answer

I got the same thing...only mine looks darker its so embarrassing. 
I asked my doctor and all I got was "its normal" 
So if you get any better feedback let me know.
