Puppps after Pregnancy?

Has anyone experienced this?

I thought I might have had puppps at the very end of my pg (like a few days before I gave birth) but I wasn't sure because it didn't spread beyond my stomach. Now that I've had the baby, I have this crazy rash everywhere--my feet, legs & arms. And now my stomach is just one big red spot.

I've read that it's rare to get puppps after pg but it can happen. Did anyone have skin reactions just after giving birth? TIA

My SIL had it for about two months after giving birth and I just got it back 4 weeks after giving birth, so yes it is possible. I'm an itchy mess right along with you!

I got a bad itchy rash a week after givng birth. I used Benadryl and anti itch cream and in about a week it went away as mysteriously as it appeared.

I had PUPPS the last month of my pregnancy and gave birth Dec 19th. It didn't really go away until after Jan 1st. I would talk with your Gyno and find out what they think.

My midwife had no clue what it was. I'm going to the derm today so maybe they'll have some answers
