They are all over my legs & my preggo stomach- I am dying here. I've never had them so bad before & so itchy!
What works best for relief?

Re: help! I badly need mosquito bite relief!
I swear by cortizone 10 stick (liquid) i keep one in my purse during the summer. I would just check with your OB if you can use it since you're preggers,

Rubbing alcohol always worked for me. It dries out the bite.

I've been using the alchohol & for me, it's a very temp fix. I hate mosquitos.
I'll try the cortizone now.

I can't offer much as far as the relief... but next time - try spraying listerine around you - should keep the mosquitos away

Re: help! I badly need mosquito bite relief!
Got this on pinterest... can't vouch for any of the remedies though but worth a try since you probably have some of these items in your house and they're all natural!

Re: help! I badly need mosquito bite relief!
Just out of curiousity since you say you are preggo:
Have you spoken to your Ob-gyn?
I had something similar during pregnancy and it's a rash many women get----NOT insect bites.
If you google search it, it mirrors insect bites and your doctor can give you something for it, or you can get an OTC cream that can at least provide some relief.

omg, really? Because no one other than me has gotten "bit" if that's what it is. My DH & DS are bite free so now I wonder if it is that preg rash.
I used calamine lotion for now for a little relief but I'll have to call my obgyn tomorrow.

Yep.
I bet if you post this under pregnancy or parenting, you'll get a lot more responses.
That's how I initially found out about it when I was pregnant with my son.
They call it "Pupps".

I was gonna say the same thing. Esp if you have them all over your belly. That's normally where it starts. I didtn have PUPPS, but a friend did.
