Red blotchy, possible itchy, skin?

[ja14]

Sometime this weekend, I noticed seemed flushed red. Yesterday my face and ears were very blotchy red and I could feel the heat where the red was. Today, my face is still red, but not as bad. However, I had large red blotches on my arms. My arms seemed a little itchy, but it wasn't consistent and it may just be because it's on my mind
When I work up this morning my hands and feet seemed itchy, and my palms red, but the itchiness went away.

I haven't changed any of my skin products or introduced anything new to my diet, etc, so I'm assuming it's pregnancy related. I've read of a few things it could be, but it seems most of it isn't common at all until third trimester.

Anyone experiencing this or have in the past?

Have you been checked for fifths disease? It's a red blotchy rash that you can get and I think it is generally in your arms. My blood work from early on showed me for being immune to it. But I'd call the doctor to make sure!

Call your doctor. There are quite a few pregnancy related conditions that might affect baby as well. OC is the more severe one. Have it checked.

Definitely get it checked, I had oc with my last pregnancy and it can start from 20 weeks. Luckily I didn't get it til 36 weeks. My symptoms were itching and also burning hands and feet, especially at night
