Hi All,

I'm 5 weeks tomorrow and suffer from chronic dermatitis/eczema on my hands. Normally I keep it under control with a strong steroid cream when needed but my GP has said to avoid it if I can. I avoided till about 8 weeks with DD but my hands are REALLY bad and I'm not sure if I should just use it to get it cleared or what to do. It means my hands are lumpy and red, itchy and sore and will probably end up with my skin/knuckles cracking and bleeding.

Does anyone else suffer from this and what did you do during PG that worked to keep it under control???

If I was to use the steroid creams it would probably take 2 or 3 nights worth of applications for it to fix it up but then it could be back within a few days anyway so it would not be a once off.

Suggestions please..
