Itching like crazy and can't sleep anymore. I'll find out on Wednesday if it's indeed PUPPs or IC, but seems like pupps with the rash that is now spread all over my body. Like I didn't have enough struggle with SPD :cry:

Anybody else has it? How do you deal? What is your mw saying? Are you going to be induced? I really want to wait till the end but the thought of being itchy every 15 minutes for the next three months really doesn't appeal much. I tried Grandpa's pine soap, claritin, aloe vera lotion, everything gives a temporary relief maybe 1-2 hours :(

They also say that itching is insane for one week and then it's better, well it's been a frigging week already!! I just really hope it's not going to last all three months :(
 
They say the itching is the most intense for a week then it goes away for a few weeks and comes back which i have experienced!!! Its clinical tho there is no real test that can determine it 100% the doctors go off of what it looks like puppps does not go in the belly button so that a big sign!!! I have tried everything in hopes of relief but nothing seems to really do it try using a 40% zinc oxide diaper rash creme it helps slowly and oatmeal baths help for about 20 min i usually just deal with it and when its time for bed take a benidryl to knock me out which is safe for baby and also take a allergy pill daily my ob-gyn said that will slowly start to help which in a way it has im only 16 weeks and the only true cure is to give birth and 70% of women who get puppps give birth to a boy they think its the male hormone irritating our body and after birth it comes back once or twice then its over ive done so much research
 
I found when I was mega itchy with Nathan that aqueous cream with 1 percent menthol, worked a treat. Hope it stops soon x
 
Im gonna have to try that its getting to a point i just cant take it anymore im going crazy pregnancy is suppose to be enjoyable
 
I KEEP FORGETTING THIS
