my rash is back
so I have an appt with my PCP because the OBGYN wants me to see a dermatologist but I need a refferral and I have to see PCP first
Anyway I am really scared because I hope this rash isnt something that could hurt the baby......why does all this happen when youre pregnant??
Is it possible for your skin or body to be more sensitive to certain products when your pregnant??

Re: my rash is back
Oh no, I hope its nothing .
I have noticed my skin is very dry lately. So Im wondering now if I should change my soap? I use Dove and that is drying my skin out???? It didnt before being PG. I know I read our skin is going to go through some changes but it didnt say to what extent. Keep us posted and good luck today!

Re: my rash is back
where is your rash, I found this on the internet but honestly all this stuff can make you crazy.
PUPPP - (pruritic urticarial papules and plaques of pregnancy)
This condition is the most common dermatosis (skin condition) of pregnancy. The cause was unknown until recently when Dr Selim Aracting and colleagues from France reported studies linking PUPPP with cells from the developing baby (foetus). Their studies suggest that foetal cells can invade the mother's skin during pregnancy, and in some way cause this skin disorder to develop.
Symptoms and signs
What red raised spots or bumps that itch strongly.
Where the rash usually starts on the abdomen and spreads to the thighs. Occasionally, the rash spreads to arms and buttocks. The face is never involved.
When the rash usually appears after 34 weeks of pregnancy and disappears after childbirth, but can recur with subsequent pregnancy
