Red bumps

I have a few large red bumps on my body (legs and arms). They are a bit itchy and almost look like bug bites, but I really haven't been outside. Could this possibly be something pregnancy related? Something I should be concerned about?

TIA

Re: Red bumps

How many weeks are you? It could be PUPPS-but that usually starts on your stomach. Could be cholestasis which is a bit more serious. I would call your dr just to be on the safe side.

Re: Red bumps

Could it be from overheating?

I had some on my belly and limbs whenever it gets hot and I decide to scratch.

Once you cool down (turn up the AC or take a cool shower/bath), it usually goes away.

Re: Red bumps

I got that in my first trimester - they itched SO BADLY. Believe it or not - I put Diaper rash cream on my legs and they cleared up in a snap.
