    Nothing like a cuddle from DD after a hard day's work!

    I got it too with dd2.

    Worse itch ever, felt orgasmic when i started scratching but then the bumps bled and stung when i had a shower.

    Was only able to put calamine on it which was ok but didnt relieve pain.

    Try not to scratch i still have some scarring from it!

    I had bad urticaria that spread from my limbs to my belly. It was awful but it wasn't as bad as PUPPS.

    It hasn't completely disappeared, but it has significantly reduced. Things that helped include:
    - reduced showers from 2 to 1 a day
    - reduced temperature of showers/bath
    - dandelion tablets
    - washed with pinetarsol
    - sprayed skin with Wheatgrass spray

    I think the wheatgrass spray has being fabulous. I also moisturise with coconut oil afterwards.
