Severe itching!!!!

Sami

Hello everyone

I’m currently 37 + 4 days pregnant and about a week ago I was woke up in the middle of the night with an extremely itchy belly. I must have scratched during the night without noticing and woke up with tons of tiny red bumps in my stretch marks and around my full abdomen.

I’m aware of the obstetric cholestasis but I have been to my GP to get tested and then been tested again at hospital by midwives twice. My bloods came back within normal range but the rash is all over my entire body. It is on my hands, feet, buttocks, arms, bottom legs, thighs and my back / chest. It’s showing no signs of slowing down or stopping the spread.

I have tried the following:

1% steroid cream

Vitamin E cream

Aveeno Oatmeal bath

Bio oil

Antihistamines

Burts Bees cream

Skin elastic midwife serum

I wear next to no clothing / if any most time. I’m getting around 20 minutes sleep per night and waking up sobbing all night long. My entire pregnancy is ruined and I’m feeling in a severe dark place. I don’t know how I’ll make it to the end of my pregnancy because I am just so miserable 😭😭😭

The only thing that helps is when I use ice pckson my skin / cold compresses during the night which clearly isn’t ideal in this thick snow. I am so desperate for some help. Does anyone know 1) what this could be? (I can only think it could be PUPPPS) 2) any way on Earth to relieve this itch?

Thank you in advance!
