    Unhappy Rash

    I have a rash all over my belly. It started yesterday afternoon, but hasn't gotten any worse (or spread any further) over night. It's a bit itchy, but not too bad. It kinda looks like heat rash - maybe that's all it is...?
    Anybody know?

    I know when I was pregnant with DS I got an awful rash on my belly, it was so freakin itchy it wasn't funny!!!!! I couldn't stop scratching it and eventually took some skin off (whoops). I went to the doc and they prescribed a cream for me which was safe to use. Worked a charm. I would say that if it gets itchier just go to the doc for them to take a look at it, make sure its nothing to worry about. better safe than sorry!

    It could be the PUPP rash. It sometimes happens in later pregnancy. I got it after I had Darcy and it looked like the measles. Started on my belly and moved out. From memory it went away by itself after a couple of days, but some women have the whole rest of their pregnancy.

    Thanks for your responses.
    It's no worse, and not so itchy. I'll ask my doc about it when I see him on Friday
    Thanks again
